Merge branch 'for-linus' of git://ftp.arm.linux.org.uk/~rmk/linux-arm
Pull ARM updates from Russell King:
"In this ARM merge, we remove more lines than we add. Changes include:
- Enable imprecise aborts early, so that bus errors aren't masked
until later in the boot. This has the side effect that boot
loaders which provoke these aborts can cause the kernel to crash
early in boot, so we install a handler to report this event around
the site where these are enabled.
- Remove the buggy but impossible to enable cmpxchg syscall code.
- Add unwinding annotations to some assembly code.
- Add support for atomic half-word exchange for ARMv6k+.
- Reduce ioremap() alignment for SMP/LPAE cases where we don't need
the large alignment.
- Addition of an "optimal" 3G configuration for systems with 1G of
RAM.
- Increase vmalloc space by 128M.
- Constify some SMP operations structures, which have never been
writable.
- Improve ARMs dma_mmap() support for mapping DMA coherent mappings
into userspace.
- Fix to the NMI backtrace code in the IPI case on ARM where the
failing CPU gets stuck for 10s waiting for its own IPI to be
delivered.
- Removal of legacy PM support from the AMBA bus driver.
- Another fix for the previous fix of vdsomunge"
