Pull non-MM updates from Andrew Morton:
"Quite a lot of kexec work this time around. Many singleton patches in
many places. The notable patch series are:
- nilfs2 folio conversion from Matthew Wilcox in 'nilfs2: Folio
conversions for file paths'.
- Additional nilfs2 folio conversion from Ryusuke Konishi in 'nilfs2:
Folio conversions for directory paths'.
- IA64 remnant removal in Heiko Carstens's 'Remove unused code after
IA-64 removal'.
- Arnd Bergmann has enabled the -Wmissing-prototypes warning
everywhere in 'Treewide: enable -Wmissing-prototypes'. This had
some followup fixes:
- Nathan Chancellor has cleaned up the hexagon build in the series
'hexagon: Fix up instances of -Wmissing-prototypes'.
- Nathan also addressed some s390 warnings in 's390: A couple of
fixes for -Wmissing-prototypes'.
- Arnd Bergmann addresses the same warnings for MIPS in his series
'mips: address -Wmissing-prototypes warnings'.
- Baoquan He has made kexec_file operate in a top-down-fitting manner
similar to kexec_load in the series 'kexec_file: Load kernel at top
of system RAM if required'
- Baoquan He has also added the self-explanatory 'kexec_file: print
out debugging message if required'.
- Some checkstack maintenance work from Tiezhu Yang in the series
'Modify some code about checkstack'.
- Douglas Anderson has disentangled the watchdog code's logging when
multiple reports are occurring simultaneously. The series is
'watchdog: Better handling of concurrent lockups'.
- Yuntao Wang has contributed some maintenance work on the crash code
in 'crash: Some cleanups and fixes'"
