 - An extensive rework of kexec and crash Kconfig from Eric DeVolder
   ("refactor Kconfig to consolidate KEXEC and CRASH options")

 - kernel.h slimming work from Andy Shevchenko ("kernel.h: Split out a
   couple of macros to args.h")

 - gdb feature work from Kuan-Ying Lee ("Add GDB memory helper
   commands")

 - vsprintf inclusion rationalization from Andy Shevchenko
   ("lib/vsprintf: Rework header inclusions")

 - Switch the handling of kdump from a udev scheme to in-kernel
   handling, by Eric DeVolder ("crash: Kernel handling of CPU and memory
   hot un/plug")

 - Many singleton patches to various parts of the tree

-	  kexec is a system call that implements the ability to shutdown your
-	  current kernel, and to start another kernel.  It is like a reboot
-	  but it is independent of the system firmware.   And like a reboot
-	  you can start any kernel with it, not just Linux.
-
-	  The name comes from the similarity to the exec system call.
-
-	  It is an ongoing process to be certain the hardware in a machine
-	  is properly shutdown, so do not be surprised if this code does not
-	  initially work for you.  As of this writing the exact hardware
-	  interface is strongly in flux, so no good recommendation can be
-	  made.
