Merge branch 'mm-urgent-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip
Pull vmap stack fixes from Ingo Molnar: "This is fallout from CONFIG_HAVE_ARCH_VMAP_STACK=y on x86: stack accesses that used to be just somewhat questionable are now totally buggy. These changes try to do it without breaking the ABI: the fields are left there, they are just reporting zero, or reporting narrower information (the maps file change)" * 'mm-urgent-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip: mm: Change vm_is_stack_for_task() to vm_is_stack_for_current() fs/proc: Stop trying to report thread stacks fs/proc: Stop reporting eip and esp in /proc/PID/stat mm/numa: Remove duplicated include from mprotect.c
