      Pull LZO compression update from Markus Oberhumer:
 "Summary:
  ========

  Update the Linux kernel LZO compression and decompression code to the
  current upstream version which features significant performance
  improvements on modern machines.

  Some *synthetic* benchmarks:
  ============================

    x86_64 (Sandy Bridge), gcc-4.6 -O3, Silesia test corpus, 256 kB block-size:

                     compression speed   decompression speed

    LZO-2005    :         150 MB/sec          468 MB/sec
    LZO-2012    :         434 MB/sec         1210 MB/sec

    i386 (Sandy Bridge), gcc-4.6 -O3, Silesia test corpus, 256 kB block-size:

                     compression speed   decompression speed

    LZO-2005    :         143 MB/sec          409 MB/sec
    LZO-2012    :         372 MB/sec         1121 MB/sec

    armv7 (Cortex-A9), Linaro gcc-4.6 -O3, Silesia test corpus, 256 kB block-size:

                     compression speed   decompression speed

    LZO-2005    :          27 MB/sec           84 MB/sec
    LZO-2012    :          44 MB/sec          117 MB/sec
  **LZO-2013-UA :          47 MB/sec          167 MB/sec

  Legend:

    LZO-2005    : LZO version in current 3.8 kernel (which is based on
                     the LZO 2.02 release from 2005)
    LZO-2012    : updated LZO version available in linux-next
  **LZO-2013-UA : updated LZO version available in linux-next plus experimental
                     ARM Unaligned Access patch. This needs approval
                     from some ARM maintainer ist NOT YET INCLUDED."

Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> acks it and says:
 "There's a new LZ4 on the block which is even faster than the sped-up
  LZO, but various filesystems and things use LZO"

      Pull EDAC fixes and ghes-edac from Mauro Carvalho Chehab:
 "For:

   - Some fixes at edac drivers (i7core_edac, sb_edac, i3200_edac);
   - error injection support for i5100, when EDAC debug is enabled;
   - fix edac when it is loaded builtin (early init for the subsystem);
   - a "Firmware First" EDAC driver, allowing ghes to report errors via
     EDAC (ghes-edac).

  With regards to ghes-edac, this fixes a longstanding BZ at Red Hat
  that happens with Nehalem and Sandy Bridge CPUs: when both GHES and
  i7core_edac or sb_edac are running, the error reports are
  unpredictable, as both BIOS and OS race to access the registers.  With
  ghes-edac, the EDAC core will refuse to register any other concurrent
  memory error driver.

  This patchset moves the ghes struct definitions to a separate header
  file (include/acpi/ghes.h) and adds 3 hooks at apei/ghes.c to
  register/unregister and to report errors via ghes-edac.  Those changes
  were acked by ghes driver maintainer (Huang)."

      Fix mis-merge of intel_powerclamp.c resulting in compile error · 19cc90f5
      Linus Torvalds authored 
      The new intel_powerclamp thermal cooling device driver was merged in
commit 2af78448 (Pull thermal management updates from Zhang Rui)
without any data conflicts.  But there was a more subtle conflict I
missed: the driver uses MAX_USER_RT_PRIO, but commit 8bd75c77
("sched/rt: Move rt specific bits into new header file") had moved that
define from <linux/sched.h> to <linux/sched/rt.h>.

Which caused this build failure:

  drivers/thermal/intel_powerclamp.c: In function ‘clamp_thread’:
  drivers/thermal/intel_powerclamp.c:360:21: error: ‘MAX_USER_RT_PRIO’ undeclared (first use in this function)
  drivers/thermal/intel_powerclamp.c:360:21: note: each undeclared identifier is reported only once for each function it appears in

And because I don't do a full "make allmodconfig" build after each pull,
I didn't notice until too late.  So now the fix is here, separately from
the merge commit.

      Merge tag 'late-mvebu-rebased' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/arm/arm-soc · 1a32c58b
      Linus Torvalds authored 
      Pull ARM SoC mvebu platform changes from Olof Johansson:
 "This series contains changes for the Marvell EBU platforms (mvebu,
  orion, kirkwood, dove) that were not part of the first set of pull
  requests because of dependencies on the MMC tree, and being submitted
  a little late.

  Notable changes are:

   - More devices get moved out of board files into device tree
     descriptions.  The remaining devices listed in there have patches
     that will get sent for 3.10, after which we can remove a lot of the
     board files entirely.  We are doing the pinctrl and mmc drivers
     here, ethernet and PCI still remain.

   - SMP support for mvebu is improved with support for the local
     interrupt controller.

   - The Guruplug board file gets replaced with a DT description.

  Unfortunately, the dependency on the MMC tree turned out to be a much
  larger problem than expected, when the MMC maintainer rebased the
  patches in his tree that all of the patches in this branch are based
  on, which caused merge conflicts between the new and old versions of
  those patches.

  To work around the merge conflicts, this branch rebases all patches on
  top of the respective MMC patches that did get merged into 3.9.  The
  patches are all identical to the versions that were part of
  linux-next, but have a new commit date."
