Pull signal handling cleanups from Al Viro:
 "sigaltstack infrastructure + conversion for x86, alpha and um,
  COMPAT_SYSCALL_DEFINE infrastructure.

  Note that there are several conflicts between "unify
  SS_ONSTACK/SS_DISABLE definitions" and UAPI patches in mainline;
  resolution is trivial - just remove definitions of SS_ONSTACK and
  SS_DISABLED from arch/*/uapi/asm/signal.h; they are all identical and
  include/uapi/linux/signal.h contains the unified variant."

Fixed up conflicts as per Al.

* 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/viro/signal:
  alpha: switch to generic sigaltstack
  new helpers: __save_altstack/__compat_save_altstack, switch x86 and um to those
  generic compat_sys_sigaltstack()
  introduce generic sys_sigaltstack(), switch x86 and um to it
  new helper: compat_user_stack_pointer()
  new helper: restore_altstack()
  unify SS_ONSTACK/SS_DISABLE definitions
  new helper: current_user_stack_pointer()

Pull IOMMU updates from Joerg Roedel:
 "A few new features this merge-window.  The most important one is
  probably, that dma-debug now warns if a dma-handle is not checked with
  dma_mapping_error by the device driver.  This requires minor changes
  to some architectures which make use of dma-debug.  Most of these
  changes have the respective Acks by the Arch-Maintainers.

  Besides that there are updates to the AMD IOMMU driver for refactor
  the IOMMU-Groups support and to make sure it does not trigger a
  hardware erratum.

  The OMAP changes (for which I pulled in a branch from Tony Lindgren's
  tree) have a conflict in linux-next with the arm-soc tree.  The
  conflict is in the file arch/arm/mach-omap2/clock44xx_data.c which is
  deleted in the arm-soc tree.  It is safe to delete the file too so
  solve the conflict.  Similar changes are done in the arm-soc tree in
  the common clock framework migration.  A missing hunk from the patch
  in the IOMMU tree will be submitted as a seperate patch when the
  merge-window is closed."

<title>microblaze: uaccess.h: Fix timerfd syscall</title>

<content type='text'>
__pu_val must be volatile to ensure that the value is not lost.

It was causing the problem with timerfd syscall
where using inline asm at the end of function call doesn't
save u64 bit value to the stack.
In comparison both cases you can find out this fragment
where you can see the first part which is saved u64
value to stack and then using it in __put_user_asm_8 macro.
Origin broken implementation misses the first two swi instructions.

	swi	r22, r1, 28 /* missing without volatile */
	swi	r23, r1, 32
...
	addik	r4, r1, 28
	lwi	r3, r4, 0
	swi	r3, r25, 0
	lwi	r3, r4, 4
	swi	r3, r25, 4
	addk	r3, r0, r0

NOTE: Moving __put_val initialization after declaration
has not impact on this bug. It is just coding style issue.

Pull big execve/kernel_thread/fork unification series from Al Viro:
 "All architectures are converted to new model.  Quite a bit of that
  stuff is actually shared with architecture trees; in such cases it's
  literally shared branch pulled by both, not a cherry-pick.

  A lot of ugliness and black magic is gone (-3KLoC total in this one):

   - kernel_thread()/kernel_execve()/sys_execve() redesign.

     We don't do syscalls from kernel anymore for either kernel_thread()
     or kernel_execve():

     kernel_thread() is essentially clone(2) with callback run before we
     return to userland, the callbacks either never return or do
     successful do_execve() before returning.

     kernel_execve() is a wrapper for do_execve() - it doesn't need to
     do transition to user mode anymore.

     As a result kernel_thread() and kernel_execve() are
     arch-independent now - they live in kernel/fork.c and fs/exec.c
     resp.  sys_execve() is also in fs/exec.c and it's completely
     architecture-independent.

   - daemonize() is gone, along with its parts in fs/*.c

   - struct pt_regs * is no longer passed to do_fork/copy_process/
     copy_thread/do_execve/search_binary_handler/-&gt;load_binary/do_coredump.

   - sys_fork()/sys_vfork()/sys_clone() unified; some architectures
     still need wrappers (ones with callee-saved registers not saved in
     pt_regs on syscall entry), but the main part of those suckers is in
     kernel/fork.c now."

* 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/viro/signal: (113 commits)
  do_coredump(): get rid of pt_regs argument
