Subject[GIT PULL] x86/asm changes for v4.21
Linus,

Please pull the latest x86-asm-for-linus git tree from:

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip.git x86-asm-for-linus

# HEAD: 29434801e7e9c6d05fbea4533b3c0bd6be612f62 x86/vdso: Remove a stale/misleading comment from the linker script

Two changes:

- Remove (some) remnants of the vDSO's fake section table mechanism that
were left behind when the vDSO build process reverted to using
"objdump -S" to strip the userspace image.

- Remove hardcoded POPCNT mnemonics now that the minimum binutils
version supports the symbolic form.

Thanks,

Ingo
