           ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

&gt;&gt; If this parameter applies only for auto-configured IP addressed, please state
&gt;&gt; it more clearly in docs or rename the parameter to show that it refers to
&gt;&gt; auto-configuration.

It did mention autoconfigured in the text, but the below makes it more obvious.

More clearly document IPv6 max_addresses parameter.

<title>ARM: allow alignment fault mode to be configured at kernel boot</title>

<content type='text'>
Some glibc versions intentionally create lots of alignment faults in
their gconv code, which if not fixed up, results in segfaults during
boot.  This can prevent systems booting properly.

There is no clear hard-configurable default for this; the desired
default depends on the nature of the userspace which is going to be
booted.

So, provide a way for the alignment fault handler to be configured via
the kernel command line.

With the movement of the ima hooks functions were renamed from *path* to
*file* since they always deal with struct file.  This patch renames some of
the ima internal flags to make them consistent with the rest of the code.
