This (and the previous one) is not the correct fix, although it will
work.  The correct fix is instead to completely revert fa81511bb0bb
before merging in tip:x86/espfix.

Sorry for the inconvenience.  Linus generally doesn't like it when we
fix up merges for him, or I'd set up a "clean" tip:x86/espfix branch.
