Merge branch 'akpm' (incoming from Andrew)
Merge first batch of fixes from Andrew Morton:
- A couple of kthread changes
- A few minor audit patches
- A number of fbdev patches. Florian remains AWOL so I'm picking up
some of these.
- A few kbuild things
- ocfs2 updates
- Almost all of the MM queue
(And in the meantime, I already have the second big batch from Andrew
pending in my mailbox ;^)
