Merge branch 'akpm' (Andrew's patch-bomb)
Merge Andrew's first set of patches: "Non-MM patches: - lots of misc bits - tree-wide have_clk() cleanups - quite a lot of printk tweaks. I draw your attention to "printk: convert the format for KERN_<LEVEL> to a 2 byte pattern" which looks a bit scary. But afaict it's solid. - backlight updates - lib/ feature work (notably the addition and use of memweight()) - checkpatch updates - rtc updates - nilfs updates - fatfs updates (partial, still waiting for acks) - kdump, proc, fork, IPC, sysctl, taskstats, pps, etc - new fault-injection feature work" * Merge emailed patches from Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org>: (128 commits) drivers/misc/lkdtm.c: fix missing allocation failure check lib/scatterlist: do not re-write gfp_flags in __sg_alloc_table() fault-injection: add tool to run command with failslab or fail_page_alloc fault-injection: add selftests for cpu and memory hotplug powerpc: pSeries reconfig notifier error injection module memory: memory notifier error injection module PM: PM notifier error injection module cpu: rewrite cpu-notifier-error-inject module fault-injection: notifier error injection c/r: fcntl: add F_GETOWNER_UIDS option resource: make sure requested range is included in the root range include/linux/aio.h: cpp->C conversions fs: cachefiles: add support for large files in filesystem caching pps: return PTR_ERR on error in device_create taskstats: check nla_reserve() return sysctl: suppress kmemleak messages ipc: use Kconfig options for __ARCH_WANT_[COMPAT_]IPC_PARSE_VERSION ipc: compat: use signed size_t types for msgsnd and msgrcv ipc: allow compat IPC version field parsing if !ARCH_WANT_OLD_COMPAT_IPC ipc: add COMPAT_SHMLBA support ...
