  fs/seq_file: use seq_* helpers in seq_hex_dump()
  coredump: change zap_threads() and zap_process() to use for_each_thread()
  coredump: ensure all coredumping tasks have SIGNAL_GROUP_COREDUMP
  signal: remove jffs2_garbage_collect_thread()->allow_signal(SIGCONT)
  signal: introduce kernel_signal_stop() to fix jffs2_garbage_collect_thread()
  signal: turn dequeue_signal_lock() into kernel_dequeue_signal()
  signals: kill block_all_signals() and unblock_all_signals()
  nilfs2: fix gcc uninitialized-variable warnings in powerpc build
