Introduce a new kernel parameter `coredump_filter'. Setting a value to this parameter causes the default bitmask of coredump_filter to be changed. It is useful for users to change coredump_filter settings for the whole system at boot time. Without this parameter, users have to change coredump_filter settings for each /proc/<pid>/ in an initializing script.

POSIX requires the si_pid to be the process id of the sender, so ->si_pid should really be set to 'tgid'. This change does have following changes in behavior: - When sending pdeath_signal on re-parent to a sub-thread, ->si_pid cannot be used to identify the thread that did the re-parent since it will now show the tgid instead of thread id. - A multi-threaded application that expects to find the specific thread that encountered a SIGPIPE using the ->si_pid will now break.

For SEND_SIG_NOINFO, si_pid is currently set to the pid of sender in sender's active pid namespace. But if the receiver is in a Eg: when parent sends the 'pdeath_signal' to a child that is in a descendant pid namespace, we should set si_pid 0.

The code to draw penguin logos always uses some properties of the main logo. This is incorrect if additional logos (CONFIG_FB_LOGO_EXTRA=y) have different types than the main logo, which causes corrupted logo images. http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12181 Hence skip additional logos that are not compatible with the main logo. Technically, it's possible to draw multiple logos of different types on truecolor displays, but this would complicate the (already quite complicated) logo drawing code even more.

Provide a static debounce configuration mechanism for twl4030 GPIOs, replacing the previous dynamic one. The single user of that mechanism was for MMC card detect debouncing. Boards can provide a bitmask saying which GPIOs to debounce (30 msec). It's always enabled for pins with the MMC card-detect/VMMCx link active, so most boards won't need to set the debounce mask. This is a net code shrink, including runtime footprint.
