Rather than #define the options manually in the architecture code, add
Kconfig options for them and select them there instead. This also allows
us to select the compat IPC version parsing automatically for platforms
using the old compat IPC interface.

If the SHMLBA definition for a native task differs from the definition for
a compat task, the do_shmat() function would need to handle both.
This patch introduces COMPAT_SHMLBA, which is used by the compat shmat
syscall when calling the ipc code and allows architectures such as AArch64
(where the native SHMLBA is 64k but the compat (AArch32) definition is
16k) to provide the correct semantics for compat IPC system calls.

firmware_map_add_hotplug()
There are two ways to create /sys/firmware/memmap/X sysfs:
- firmware_map_add_early
When the system starts, it is calledd from e820_reserve_resources()
- firmware_map_add_hotplug
When the memory is hot plugged, it is called from add_memory()
But these functions are called without unifying value of end argument as
below:
- end argument of firmware_map_add_early() : start + size - 1
- end argument of firmware_map_add_hogplug() : start + size
The patch unifies them to "start + size". Even if applying the patch,
/sys/firmware/memmap/X/end file content does not change.

mach-netx had its own implementation of clk routines like, clk_get{put},
clk_enable{disable}, etc. And with introduction of following patchset:
https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/4/24/154
we get compilation error for multiple definition of these routines.
Sascha had following suggestion to deal with it:
http://www.spinics.net/lists/arm-kernel/msg179369.html
So, remove this code completely.

Commits d065bd810b6d ("mm: retry page fault when blocking on disk
transfer") and 37b23e0525d3 ("x86,mm: make pagefault killable")
introduced changes into the x86 pagefault handler for making the page
fault handler retryable as well as killable.
These changes reduce the mmap_sem hold time, which is crucial during OOM
killer invocation.
Port these changes to AVR32.

There's a small group of odd looking includes in smc37c669.c. These
includes appear to be if zero-ed out ever since they were added to the
tree (in v2.1.89). Their purpose is unclear to me. Perhaps they were
used in someones build system. Whatever their purpose was, nothing else
uses something comparable. This entire if zero-ed out block might as well
be removed.

As Colin Cross ported my x86 change to ARM, he also pointed out that
powerpc is also behind in this fix.
The commit 722b3c746953 "ftrace/graph: Trace function entry before
updating index" fixes an issue with function graph tracing for x86,
where if the called entry function decides not to trace interrupts, it
can fail the check if an interrupt comes in just after the
curr_ret_stack is updated.
The solution is to call the entry function first, then update the
curr_ret_stack if the entry function wants to be traced.

Recently, glibc made a change to suppress sign-conversion warnings in
FD_SET (glibc commit ceb9e56b3d1). This uncovered an issue with the
kernel's definition of __NFDBITS if applications #include
<linux/types.h> after including <sys/select.h>. A build failure would
be seen when passing the -Werror=sign-compare and -D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=2
flags to gcc.
It was suggested that the kernel should either match the glibc
definition of __NFDBITS or remove that entirely. The current in-kernel
uses of __NFDBITS can be replaced with BITS_PER_LONG, and there are no
uses of the related __FDELT and __FDMASK defines. Given that, we'll
continue the cleanup that was started with commit 8b3d1cda4f5f
("posix_types: Remove fd_set macros") and drop the remaining unused
macros.
Additionally, linux/time.h has similar macros defined that expand to
nothing so we'll remove those at the same time.

Pull x86/mm changes from Peter Anvin:
"The big change here is the patchset by Alex Shi to use INVLPG to flush
only the affected pages when we only need to flush a small page range.
It also removes the special INVALIDATE_TLB_VECTOR interrupts (32
vectors!) and replace it with an ordinary IPI function call."
Fix up trivial conflicts in arch/x86/include/asm/apic.h (added code next
to changed line)

Pul x86/efi changes from Ingo Molnar:
"This tree adds an EFI bootloader handover protocol, which, once
supported on the bootloader side, will make bootup faster and might
result in simpler bootloaders.
The other change activates the EFI wall clock time accessors on x86-64
as well, instead of the legacy RTC readout."

Pull scheduler changes from Ingo Molnar:
"The biggest change is a performance improvement on SMP systems:
| 4 socket 40 core + SMT Westmere box, single 30 sec tbench
| runs, higher is better:

| clients 1 2 4 8 16 32 64 128

| A nice increase in performance.
which speedup is particularly noticeable on heavily interacting
few-tasks workloads, so the changes should help desktop-style Xorg
workloads and interactivity as well, on multi-core CPUs.
There are also cpuset suspend behavior fixes/restructuring and various
smaller tweaks."
* 'sched-core-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip:
sched: Fix race in task_group()
sched: Improve balance_cpu() to consider other cpus in its group as target of (pinned) task
sched: Reset loop counters if all tasks are pinned and we need to redo load balance
sched: Reorder 'struct lb_env' members to reduce its size
sched: Improve scalability via 'CPU buddies', which withstand random perturbations
cpusets: Remove/update outdated comments
cpusets, hotplug: Restructure functions that are invoked during hotplug
cpusets, hotplug: Implement cpuset tree traversal in a helper function
CPU hotplug, cpusets, suspend: Don't modify cpusets during suspend/resume
sched/x86: Remove broken power estimation
