Pull timer updates from Thomas Gleixner:
 "Rather large, but nothing exiting:

   - new range check for settimeofday() to prevent that boot time
     becomes negative.
   - fix for file time rounding
   - a few simplifications of the hrtimer code
   - fix for the proc/timerlist code so the output of clock realtime
     timers is accurate
   - more y2038 work
   - tree wide conversion of clockevent drivers to the new callbacks"

Pull scheduler updates from Ingo Molnar:
 "The biggest change in this cycle is the rewrite of the main SMP load
  balancing metric: the CPU load/utilization.  The main goal was to make
  the metric more precise and more representative - see the changelog of
  this commit for the gory details:

    9d89c257dfb9 ("sched/fair: Rewrite runnable load and utilization average tracking")

  It is done in a way that significantly reduces complexity of the code:

    5 files changed, 249 insertions(+), 494 deletions(-)

  and the performance testing results are encouraging.  Nevertheless we
  need to keep an eye on potential regressions, since this potentially
  affects every SMP workload in existence.

  This work comes from Yuyang Du.

  Other changes:

   - SCHED_DL updates.  (Andrea Parri)

   - Simplify architecture callbacks by removing finish_arch_switch().

Migrate score driver to the new 'set-state' interface provided by
clockevents core, the earlier 'set-mode' interface is marked obsolete
now.

This also enables us to implement callbacks for new states of clockevent
devices, for example: ONESHOT_STOPPED.

We weren't doing anything in ONESHOT/SHUTDOWN/RESUME modes and so
callbacks for them aren't implemented.

Commit 2ae416b142b6 ("mm: new mm hook framework") introduced an empty
header file (mm-arch-hooks.h) for every architecture, even those which
doesn't need to define mm hooks.

As suggested by Geert Uytterhoeven, this could be cleaned through the use
of a generic header file included via each per architecture
asm/include/Kbuild file.

The PowerPC architecture is not impacted here since this architecture has
to defined the arch_remap MM hook.

CRIU is recreating the process memory layout by remapping the checkpointee
memory area on top of the current process (criu).  This includes remapping
the vDSO to the place it has at checkpoint time.

However some architectures like powerpc are keeping a reference to the
vDSO base address to build the signal return stack frame by calling the
vDSO sigreturn service.  So once the vDSO has been moved, this reference
is no more valid and the signal frame built later are not usable.

This patch serie is introducing a new mm hook framework, and a new
arch_remap hook which is called when mremap is done and the mm lock still
hold.  The next patch is adding the vDSO remap and unmap tracking to the
powerpc architecture.

This patch (of 3):

This patch introduces a new set of header file to manage mm hooks:
- per architecture empty header file (arch/x/include/asm/mm-arch-hooks.h)
- a generic header (include/linux/mm-arch-hooks.h)

The architecture which need to overwrite a hook as to redefine it in its
header file, while architecture which doesn't need have nothing to do.

The default hooks are defined in the generic header and are used in the
case the architecture is not defining it.

In a next step, mm hooks defined in include/asm-generic/mm_hooks.h should
be moved here.

Pull locking updates from Ingo Molnar:
 "The main changes are:

   - 'qspinlock' support, enabled on x86: queued spinlocks - these are
     now the spinlock variant used by x86 as they outperform ticket
     spinlocks in every category.  (Waiman Long)

   - 'pvqspinlock' support on x86: paravirtualized variant of queued
     spinlocks.  (Waiman Long, Peter Zijlstra)

   - 'qrwlock' support, enabled on x86: queued rwlocks.  Similar to
     queued spinlocks, they are now the variant used by x86:

       CONFIG_ARCH_USE_QUEUED_SPINLOCKS=y
       CONFIG_QUEUED_SPINLOCKS=y
       CONFIG_ARCH_USE_QUEUED_RWLOCKS=y
       CONFIG_QUEUED_RWLOCKS=y

   - various lockdep fixlets

   - various locking primitives cleanups, further WRITE_ONCE()
     propagation"

The latest version of modinfo fails to compile score architecture
targets with the following error.

FATAL: The relocation at __ex_table+0x634 references
section "__ex_table" which is not executable, IOW
the kernel will fault if it ever tries to
jump to it.  Something is seriously wrong
and should be fixed.

The probem is caused by a bad label in an __ex_table entry.
