Merge branch 'core-urgent-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip
Pull misc fixes from Thomas Gleixner: - A fix for a user space regression in /proc/$PID/stat - A couple of objtool fixes: ~ Plug a memory leak ~ Avoid accessing empty sections which upsets certain binutil versions ~ Prevent corrupting the obj file when section sizes did not change * 'core-urgent-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip: fs/proc: Report eip/esp in /prod/PID/stat for coredumping objtool: Fix object file corruption objtool: Do not retrieve data from empty sections objtool: Fix memory leak in elf_create_rela_section()
