 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.
