Pull selinux updates from Paul Moore:
"A relatively quiet period for SELinux, 11 patches with only two/three
having any substantive changes.
These noteworthy changes include another tweak to the NNP/nosuid
handling, per-file labeling for cgroups, and an object class fix for
AF_UNIX/SOCK_RAW sockets; the rest of the changes are minor tweaks or
administrative updates (Stephen's email update explains the file
explosion in the diffstat).
Everything passes the selinux-testsuite"

Handa for Tomoyo and LSM cleanup. The separation of security policy

This patch drops support for AVR32 architecture from the Linux kernel.
The AVR32 architecture is not keeping up with the development of the
kernel, and since it shares so much of the drivers with Atmel ARM SoC,
it is starting to hinder these drivers to develop swiftly.
Also, all AVR32 AP7 SoC processors are end of lifed from Atmel (now
Microchip).
Finally, the GCC toolchain is stuck at version 4.2.x, and has not
received any patches since the last release from Atmel;
4.2.4-atmel.1.1.3.avr32linux.1. When building kernel v4.10, this
toolchain is no longer able to properly link the network stack.
Haavard and I have came to the conclusion that we feel keeping AVR32 on
life support offers more obstacles for Atmel ARMs, than it gives joy to
AVR32 users. I also suspect there are very few AVR32 users left today,
if anybody at all.

Pull x86 microcode update from Ingo Molnar:
"The biggest change (by Borislav Petkov) is a thorough rewrite of the
Intel microcode loader and its interactions with the core code.
The biggest conceptual change is the decoupling of the microcode
loading on boot and application processors (which load the microcode
in different scenarios), so that both parse the input patches with as
few assumptions as possible - this also fixes various kernel address
space randomization bugs. (The AP side then goes on and caches the
result to improve boot performance.)
Since the AMD side already did this, this change also opened up the
path towards more unification/simplification of the core microcode
loading infrastructure:
10 files changed, 647 insertions(+), 940 deletions(-)

Ozgur Karatas reported that the very first entry in the CREDITS file had
the wrong tag for name (M: instead of N: - it happened when moving the
entry from the MAINTAINERS file, where 'M:' stands for "Maintainer").
And when I went looking, I found a couple of other cases of wrong

Alan is no longer maintaining this list through the Linux assigned
numbers authority. Make it a collective document by referring to
"the maintainers" in plural throughout, and naming the chardev and
block layer maintainers in particular as parties of involvement.
Cut down and remove some sections that pertained to the process of
maintaining the list at lanana.org and contacting Alan directly.
Make it clear that this document, in the kernel, is the master
document.
Also move paragraphs around so as to emphasize dynamic major number
allocation.
Remove paragraph on 2.6 deprecation, that tag no longer appears
anywhere in the file.
