b3f7ed0324 ARM: gic: add OF based initialization
This adds ARM gic interrupt controller initialization using device tree
data.

The initialization function is intended to be called by of_irq_init
function like this:

const static struct of_device_id irq_match[] = {
	{ .compatible = "arm,cortex-a9-gic", .data = gic_of_init, },
	{}
};

static void __init init_irqs(void)
{
	of_irq_init(irq_match);
}

8d4e652d1b ARM: 7023/1: L2x0: Add interrupts property to OF binding
Following the discussion here:
http://lists.ozlabs.org/pipermail/devicetree-discuss/2011-August/007301.html

The L2x0 L2 Cache Controllers support a combined interrupt line
which can be used for several events (e.g. read/write/parity errors on
tag/data RAM, event counter increment/overflow). Unfortunately the
OF binding added in c519ecf2 ("ARM: 7009/1: l2x0: Add OF based
initialization") does not represent the interrupt.

This patch adds an "interrupts" property to the L2x0 OF binding,
representing the combined interrupt line.

This adds probing for ARM L2x0 cache controllers via device tree. Support
includes the L210, L220, and PL310 controllers. The binding allows setting
up cache RAM latencies and filter addresses (PL310 only).

2b666859ec x86: Default to vsyscall=native for now
This UML breakage:

  linux-2.6.30.1[3800] vsyscall fault (exploit attempt?) ip:ffffffffff600000 cs:33 sp:7fbfb9c498 ax:ffffffffff600000 si:0 di:606790

Is caused by commit 3ae36655 ("x86-64: Rework vsyscall emulation and add
vsyscall= parameter") - the vsyscall emulation code is not fully cooked
yet as UML relies on some rather fragile SIGSEGV semantics.

Linus suggested in https://lkml.org/lkml/2011/8/9/376 to default
to vsyscall=native for now, this patch implements that.

f4af6fd6e2 hwmon: (coretemp) Don't use threshold registers for tempX_max
With commit c814a4c7c4, the meaning of tempX_max
was changed. It no longer returns the value of bits 8:15 of
MSR_IA32_TEMPERATURE_TARGET, but instead returns the value of CPU threshold
register T1. tempX_max_hyst was added to reflect the value of temperature
threshold register T0.

As it turns out, T0 and T1 are used on some systems, presumably by the BIOS.
Also, T0 and T1 don't have a well defined meaning. The thresholds may be used
as upper or lower limits, and it is not guaranteed that T0 <= T1. Thus, the new
attribute mapping does not reflect the actual usage of the threshold registers.
Also, register contents are changed during runtime by an entity other than the
hwmon driver, meaning the values cached by the driver do not reflect actual
register contents.

Revert most of c814a4c7c4 to address the problem.
Support for T0 and T1 will be added back in with a separate commit, using new
attribute names.

a45a8c8571 hwmon: (coretemp) Let the user force TjMax
On old CPUs (and even some recent Atom CPUs) TjMax can't be read from
the CPU registers, so it is guessed by the driver using a complex
heuristic which isn't reliable. So let users who know their CPU's
TjMax pass it as a module parameter.

185efc0f9a memcg: Revert "memcg: add memory.vmscan_stat"
Revert the post-3.0 commit 82f9d486e5 ("memcg: add
memory.vmscan_stat").

The implementation of per-memcg reclaim statistics violates how memcg
hierarchies usually behave: hierarchically.

The reclaim statistics are accounted to child memcgs and the parent
hitting the limit, but not to hierarchy levels in between.  Usually,
hierarchical statistics are perfectly recursive, with each level
representing the sum of itself and all its children.

Since this exports statistics to userspace, this may lead to confusion
and problems with changing things after the release, so revert it now,
we can try again later.

e22a539824 lguest: allow booting guest with CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=y
The CONFIG_RELOCATABLE code tries to align the unpack destination to
the value of 'kernel_alignment' in the setup_hdr.  If that's 0, it
tries to unpack to address 0, which in fact causes the gunzip code
to call 'error("Out of memory while allocating output buffer")'.

The bootloader (ie. the lguest Launcher in this case) should be doing
setting this field; the normal bzImage is 16M, we can use the same.
