      Pull big execve/kernel_thread/fork unification series from Al Viro:
       "All architectures are converted to new model.  Quite a bit of that
        stuff is actually shared with architecture trees; in such cases it's
        literally shared branch pulled by both, not a cherry-pick.
      
        A lot of ugliness and black magic is gone (-3KLoC total in this one):
      
         - kernel_thread()/kernel_execve()/sys_execve() redesign.
      
           We don't do syscalls from kernel anymore for either kernel_thread()
           or kernel_execve():
      
           kernel_thread() is essentially clone(2) with callback run before we
           return to userland, the callbacks either never return or do
           successful do_execve() before returning.
      
           kernel_execve() is a wrapper for do_execve() - it doesn't need to
           do transition to user mode anymore.
      
           As a result kernel_thread() and kernel_execve() are
           arch-independent now - they live in kernel/fork.c and fs/exec.c
           resp.  sys_execve() is also in fs/exec.c and it's completely
           architecture-independent.
      
         - daemonize() is gone, along with its parts in fs/*.c
      
         - struct pt_regs * is no longer passed to do_fork/copy_process/
           copy_thread/do_execve/search_binary_handler/->load_binary/do_coredump.
      
         - sys_fork()/sys_vfork()/sys_clone() unified; some architectures
           still need wrappers (ones with callee-saved registers not saved in
           pt_regs on syscall entry), but the main part of those suckers is in
           kernel/fork.c now."

      Pull ARM SoC updates from Olof Johansson:
       "This contains the bulk of new SoC development for this merge window.
      
        Two new platforms have been added, the sunxi platforms (Allwinner A1x
        SoCs) by Maxime Ripard, and a generic Broadcom platform for a new
        series of ARMv7 platforms from them, where the hope is that we can
        keep the platform code generic enough to have them all share one mach
        directory.  The new Broadcom platform is contributed by Christian
        Daudt.
      
        Highbank has grown support for Calxeda's next generation of hardware,
        ECX-2000.
      
        clps711x has seen a lot of cleanup from Alexander Shiyan, and he's
        also taken on maintainership of the platform.
      
        Beyond this there has been a bunch of work from a number of people on
        converting more platforms to IRQ domains, pinctrl conversion, cleanup
        and general feature enablement across most of the active platforms."

      Merge branch 'for-3.8' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tj/cgroup · d206e090
      Linus Torvalds authored
      Pull cgroup changes from Tejun Heo:
       "A lot of activities on cgroup side.  The big changes are focused on
        making cgroup hierarchy handling saner.
      
         - cgroup_rmdir() had peculiar semantics - it allowed cgroup
           destruction to be vetoed by individual controllers and tried to
           drain refcnt synchronously.  The vetoing never worked properly and
           caused good deal of contortions in cgroup.  memcg was the last
           reamining user.  Michal Hocko removed the usage and cgroup_rmdir()
           path has been simplified significantly.  This was done in a
           separate branch so that the memcg people can base further memcg
           changes on top.
      
         - The above allowed cleaning up cgroup lifecycle management and
           implementation of generic cgroup iterators which are used to
           improve hierarchy support.
      
         - cgroup_freezer updated to allow migration in and out of a frozen
           cgroup and handle hierarchy.  If a cgroup is frozen, all descendant
           cgroups are frozen.
      
         - netcls_cgroup and netprio_cgroup updated to handle hierarchy
           properly.
      
         - Various fixes and cleanups.
      
         - Two merge commits.  One to pull in memcg and rmdir cleanups (needed
           to build iterators).  The other pulled in cgroup/for-3.7-fixes for
           device_cgroup fixes so that further device_cgroup patches can be
           stacked on top."
      
      Fixed up a trivial conflict in mm/memcontrol.c as per Tejun (due to
      commit bea8c150 ("memcg: fix hotplugged memory zone oops") in master
      touching code close to commit 2ef37d3f ("memcg: Simplify
      mem_cgroup_force_empty_list error handling") in for-3.8)
