Pull MCE-uncorrected-error fix from Tony Luck: "Bit 12 may or may not be set in MCi_STATUS.MCACOD when an uncorrected error is reported. Ignore it when checking error signatures." Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@kernel.org>

SMP on a pre-ARMv6 processor? Well OK then.
Forget about fast user space cmpxchg support.
It is just not possible.

+ Warning: disabling this option may break user programs.
+
+ Provide kuser helpers in the vector page. The kernel provides
+ helper code to userspace in read only form at a fixed location
+ in the high vector page to allow userspace to be independent of
+ the CPU type fitted to the system. This permits binaries to be
+ run on ARMv4 through to ARMv7 without modification.
+
+ However, the fixed address nature of these helpers can be used
+ by ROP (return orientated programming) authors when creating
+ exploits.
+
+ If all of the binaries and libraries which run on your platform
+ are built specifically for your platform, and make no use of
+ these helpers, then you can turn this option off. However,
+ when such an binary or library is run, it will receive a SIGILL
+ signal, which will terminate the program.
+
+ Say N here only if you are absolutely certain that you do not
+ need these helpers; otherwise, the safe option is to say Y.
