Linus Torvalds 9c70f04678 The main part of this branch is the ongoing fight against windmills in
an attempt to have userspace tools not poke at naked MSRs. This round
 deals with MSR_IA32_ENERGY_PERF_BIAS and removes direct poking into it
 by our in-tree tools in favor of the proper "energy_perf_bias" sysfs
 interface which we already have.
 
 In addition, the msr.ko write filtering's error message points to a new
 summary page which contains the info we collected from helpful reporters
 about which userspace tools write MSRs:
 
   https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip.git/about
 
 along with the current status of their conversion.
 
 Rest is the usual small fixes and improvements.
