This has been merged into 4.13.

Unless there are strong objections, I'm going to merge patches 2-4,6
into for-next/core. I'd like some more reviews on patch 5 (ignoring the
hardware DBM updates in ptep_set_wrprotect()) as this is a functional
change. The others are simply converting the asm code into C.
Thanks.
