Pull module update from Rusty Russell:
 "The sweeping change is to make add_taint() explicitly indicate whether
  to disable lockdep, but it's a mechanical change."

* tag 'modules-next-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rusty/linux:
  MODSIGN: Add option to not sign modules during modules_install
  MODSIGN: Add -s &lt;signature&gt; option to sign-file
  MODSIGN: Specify the hash algorithm on sign-file command line
  MODSIGN: Simplify Makefile with a Kconfig helper
  module: clean up load_module a little more.
  modpost: Ignore ARC specific non-alloc sections
  module: constify within_module_*
  taint: add explicit flag to show whether lock dep is still OK.
  module: printk message when module signature fail taints kernel.

The Xtensa architecture provides a global register called THREADPTR
for the purpose of Thread Local Storage (TLS) support. This allows us
to use a fairly simple implementation, keeping the thread pointer in
the regset and simply saving and restoring it upon entering/exiting
the from user space.

Support call graph profiling.
Keep upper two bits of PC unchanged through backtrace rather than take
them from sp (a1). The stack pointer is usually in the same GB (same
upper 2 bits) as PC, but technically doesn't always have to be (and
might not in the future, when taking full advantage of MMU v3).

Provide arch_get_unmapped_area function aligning shared memory mapping
addresses to the biggest of the page size or the cache way size. That
guarantees that corresponding virtual addresses of shared mappings are
cached by the same cache sets.
