commit e57f93cc53b7 (powerpc: get rid of nlink_t uses, switch to
explicitly-sized type) changed the size of st_nlink on ppc64 from
a long to a short, resulting in boot failures.

Pull third pile of signal handling patches from Al Viro:
 "This time it's mostly helpers and conversions to them; there's a lot
  of stuff remaining in the tree, but that'll either go in -rc2
  (isolated bug fixes, ideally via arch maintainers' trees) or will sit
  there until the next cycle."

* 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/viro/signal:
  x86: get rid of calling do_notify_resume() when returning to kernel mode
  blackfin: check __get_user() return value
  whack-a-mole with TIF_FREEZE
  FRV: Optimise the system call exit path in entry.S [ver #2]
  FRV: Shrink TIF_WORK_MASK [ver #2]
  FRV: Prevent syscall exit tracing and notify_resume at end of kernel exceptions
  new helper: signal_delivered()
  powerpc: get rid of restore_sigmask()
  most of set_current_blocked() callers want SIGKILL/SIGSTOP removed from set
  set_restore_sigmask() is never called without SIGPENDING (and never should be)
  TIF_RESTORE_SIGMASK can be set only when TIF_SIGPENDING is set
  don't call try_to_freeze() from do_signal()
  pull clearing RESTORE_SIGMASK into block_sigmask()
  sh64: failure to build sigframe != signal without handler
  openrisc: tracehook_signal_handler() is supposed to be called on success
  new helper: sigmask_to_save()
  new helper: restore_saved_sigmask()
  new helpers: {clear,test,test_and_clear}_restore_sigmask()
  HAVE_RESTORE_SIGMASK is defined on all architectures now

This is much the same as for SPARC except that we can do the find_zero()
function more efficiently using the count-leading-zeroes instructions.
Tested on 32-bit and 64-bit PowerPC.

Pull KVM changes from Avi Kivity:
 "Changes include additional instruction emulation, page-crossing MMIO,
  faster dirty logging, preventing the watchdog from killing a stopped
  guest, module autoload, a new MSI ABI, and some minor optimizations
  and fixes.  Outside x86 we have a small s390 and a very large ppc
  update.

  Regarding the new (for kvm) rebaseless workflow, some of the patches
  that were merged before we switch trees had to be rebased, while
  others are true pulls.  In either case the signoffs should be correct
  now."

Fix up trivial conflicts in Documentation/feature-removal-schedule.txt
arch/powerpc/kvm/book3s_segment.S and arch/x86/include/asm/kvm_para.h.

I suspect the kvm_para.h resolution ends up doing the "do I have cpuid"
check effectively twice (it was done differently in two different
commits), but better safe than sorry ;)

* 'next' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/virt/kvm/kvm: (125 commits)
  KVM: make asm-generic/kvm_para.h have an ifdef __KERNEL__ block
  KVM: s390: onereg for timer related registers
  KVM: s390: epoch difference and TOD programmable field
  KVM: s390: KVM_GET/SET_ONEREG for s390
  KVM: s390: add capability indicating COW support

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().
