Merge branch 'akpm' (Andrew's patch-bomb)
Merge misc patches from Andrew Morton: "Incoming: - lots of misc stuff - backlight tree updates - lib/ updates - Oleg's percpu-rwsem changes - checkpatch - rtc - aoe - more checkpoint/restart support I still have a pile of MM stuff pending - Pekka should be merging later today after which that is good to go. A number of other things are twiddling thumbs awaiting maintainer merges." * emailed patches from Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org>: (180 commits) scatterlist: don't BUG when we can trivially return a proper error. docs: update documentation about /proc/<pid>/fdinfo/<fd> fanotify output fs, fanotify: add @mflags field to fanotify output docs: add documentation about /proc/<pid>/fdinfo/<fd> output fs, notify: add procfs fdinfo helper fs, exportfs: add exportfs_encode_inode_fh() helper fs, exportfs: escape nil dereference if no s_export_op present fs, epoll: add procfs fdinfo helper fs, eventfd: add procfs fdinfo helper procfs: add ability to plug in auxiliary fdinfo providers tools/testing/selftests/kcmp/kcmp_test.c: print reason for failure in kcmp_test breakpoint selftests: print failure status instead of cause make error kcmp selftests: print fail status instead of cause make error kcmp selftests: make run_tests fix mem-hotplug selftests: print failure status instead of cause make error cpu-hotplug selftests: print failure status instead of cause make error mqueue selftests: print failure status instead of cause make error vm selftests: print failure status instead of cause make error ubifs: use prandom_bytes mtd: nandsim: use prandom_bytes ...
