Pull fpu state cleanups from Ingo Molnar:
 "This tree streamlines further aspects of FPU handling by eliminating
  the prepare_to_copy() complication and moving that logic to
  arch_dup_task_struct().

  It also fixes the FPU dumps in threaded core dumps, removes and old
  (and now invalid) assumption plus micro-optimizes the exit path by
  avoiding an FPU save for dead tasks."

Fixed up trivial add-add conflict in arch/sh/kernel/process.c that came
in because we now do the FPU handling in arch_dup_task_struct() rather
than the legacy (and now gone) prepare_to_copy().

* 'x86-fpu-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip:
  x86, fpu: drop the fpu state during thread exit
  x86, xsave: remove thread_has_fpu() bug check in __sanitize_i387_state()
  coredump: ensure the fpu state is flushed for proper multi-threaded core dump
  fork: move the real prepare_to_copy() users to arch_dup_task_struct()

Historical prepare_to_copy() is mostly a no-op, duplicated for majority of
the architectures and the rest following the x86 model of flushing the extended
register state like fpu there.

Remove it and use the arch_dup_task_struct() instead.

Pull more ARM updates from Russell King.

This got a fair number of conflicts with the &lt;asm/system.h&gt; split, but
also with some other sparse-irq and header file include cleanups.  They
all looked pretty trivial, though.

For files that include asm/processor.h but not asm/system.h:

arch/arm/mach-msm/include/mach/uncompress.h: In function 'putc':
arch/arm/mach-msm/include/mach/uncompress.h:48:3: error: implicit declaration of function 'smp_mb' [-Werror=implicit-function-declaration]

In this case, smp_mb() is from the cpu_relax() call in the msm putc().

It likely went uncaught when the uncompress.h change went in since the
defconfig didn't enable that code path, but later changes (e76f4750f4:
ARM: debug: arrange Kconfig options more logically) resulted in the
option being on for msm_defconfig and thus exposed it.

<content type='text'>
Similar to other architectures, this adds topdown mmap support in user
process address space allocation policy. This allows mmap sizes greater
than 2GB. This support is largely copied from MIPS and the generic
implementations.

The address space randomization is moved into arch_pick_mmap_layout.

Tested on V-Express with ubuntu and a mmap test from here:
