Merge git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/cmetcalf/linux-tile
Pull tile updates from Chris Metcalf: "These changes cover a range of new arch/tile features and optimizations. They've been through LKML review and on linux-next for a month or so. There's also one bug-fix that just missed 3.4, which I've marked for stable." Fixed up trivial conflict in arch/tile/Kconfig (new added tile Kconfig entries clashing with the generic timer/clockevents changes). * git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/cmetcalf/linux-tile: tile: default to tilegx_defconfig for ARCH=tile tile: fix bug where fls(0) was not returning 0 arch/tile: mark TILEGX as not EXPERIMENTAL tile/mm/fault.c: Port OOM changes to handle_page_fault arch/tile: add descriptive text if the kernel reports a bad trap arch/tile: allow querying cpu module information from the hypervisor arch/tile: fix hardwall for tilegx and generalize for idn and ipi arch/tile: support multiple huge page sizes dynamically mm: add new arch_make_huge_pte() method for tile support arch/tile: support kexec() for tilegx arch/tile: support <asm/cachectl.h> header for cacheflush() syscall arch/tile: Allow tilegx to build with either 16K or 64K page size arch/tile: optimize get_user/put_user and friends arch/tile: support building big-endian kernel arch/tile: allow building Linux with transparent huge pages enabled arch/tile: use interrupt critical sections less
