Merge branch 'for-linus' of git://ftp.arm.linux.org.uk/~rmk/linux-arm
Pull ARM updates from Russell King:
"Included in these updates are:
- Performance optimisation to avoid writing the control register at
every exception.
- Use static inline instead of extern inline in ftrace code.
- Crypto ARM assembly updates for big endian
- Alignment of initrd/.init memory to page sizes when freeing to
ensure that we fully free the regions
- Add gcov support
- A couple of preparatory patches for VDSO support: use
_install_special_mapping, and randomize the sigpage placement above
stack.
- Add L2 ePAPR DT cache properties so that DT can specify the cache
geometry.
- Preparatory patch for FIQ (NMI) kernel C code for things like
spinlock lockup debug. Following on from this are a couple of my
patches cleaning up show_regs() and removing an unused (probably
since 1.x days) do_unexp_fiq() function.
- Use pr_warn() rather than pr_warning().
- A number of cleanups (smp, footbridge, return_address)"
