Merge branch 'akpm' (patches from Andrew)
Merge third patch-bomb from Andrew Morton: - more ocfs2 changes - a few hotfixes - Andy's compat cleanups - misc fixes to fatfs, ptrace, coredump, cpumask, creds, eventfd, panic, ipmi, kgdb, profile, kfifo, ubsan, etc. - many rapidio updates: fixes, new drivers. - kcov: kernel code coverage feature. Like gcov, but not "prohibitively expensive". - extable code consolidation for various archs * emailed patches from Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org>: (81 commits) ia64/extable: use generic search and sort routines x86/extable: use generic search and sort routines s390/extable: use generic search and sort routines alpha/extable: use generic search and sort routines kernel/...: convert pr_warning to pr_warn drivers: dma-coherent: use memset_io for DMA_MEMORY_IO mappings drivers: dma-coherent: use MEMREMAP_WC for DMA_MEMORY_MAP memremap: add MEMREMAP_WC flag memremap: don't modify flags kernel/signal.c: add compile-time check for __ARCH_SI_PREAMBLE_SIZE mm/mprotect.c: don't imply PROT_EXEC on non-exec fs ipc/sem: make semctl setting sempid consistent ubsan: fix tree-wide -Wmaybe-uninitialized false positives kfifo: fix sparse complaints scripts/gdb: account for changes in module data structure scripts/gdb: add cmdline reader command scripts/gdb: add version command kernel: add kcov code coverage profile: hide unused functions when !CONFIG_PROC_FS hpwdt: use nmi_panic() when kernel panics in NMI handler ...
