Merge branch 'for-3.4-fixes' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tj/percpu
Pull two percpu fixes from Tejun Heo:
"One adds missing KERN_CONT on split printk()s and the other makes
the percpu allocator avoid using PMD_SIZE as atom_size on x86_32.
Using PMD_SIZE led to vmalloc area exhaustion on certain
configurations (x86_32 android) and the only cost of using PAGE_SIZE
instead is static percpu area not being aligned to large page
mapping."
* 'for-3.4-fixes' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tj/percpu:
percpu, x86: don't use PMD_SIZE as embedded atom_size on 32bit
percpu: use KERN_CONT in pcpu_dump_alloc_info()
