Linus Torvalds c4e34dd99f x86: simplify load_unaligned_zeropad() implementation
The exception for the "unaligned access at the end of the page, next
page not mapped" never happens, but the fixup code ends up causing
trouble for compilers to optimize well.

clang in particular ends up seeing it being in the middle of a loop, and
tries desperately to optimize the exception fixup code that is never
really reached.

The simple solution is to just move all the fixups into the exception
handler itself, which moves it all out of the hot case code, and means
that the compiler never sees it or needs to worry about it.

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
