Merge branch 'v3.18/topic/aosp' into linux-linaro-lsk-v3.18-android
* v3.18/topic/aosp: (25 commits) wakeup: Add the guard condition for len in pm_get_active_wakeup_sources CHROMIUM: android: Unconditionally remove callbacks in sync_fence_free() CHROMIUM: android: fix warning when releasing active sync point mm: reorder can_do_mlock to fix audit denial staging: ion: debugfs to shrink pool usb: gadget: configfs: handle gadget reset request for android Enable adb with android-pipe in IA image selinux: Android kernel compatibility with M userspace selinux: extended permissions for ioctls security: add ioctl specific auditing to lsm_audit selinux: remove unnecessary pointer reassignment Revert "security: lsm_audit: add ioctl specific auditing" Revert "SELinux: per-command whitelisting of ioctls" Revert "SELinux: use deletion-safe iterator to free list" Revert "SELinux: ss: Fix policy write for ioctl operations" android: add CONFIG_DEBUG_RODATA to recommended config arm: mm: support ARCH_MMAP_RND_BITS. mm: mmap: Add new /proc tunable for mmap_base ASLR. Don't kill IPv4 sockets when killing IPv6 sockets was requested. uid_cputime: Check for the range while removing range of UIDs. ... Conflicts: drivers/usb/gadget/Kconfig Conflict due to android-3.18 merge trying to sneak in Android Composite Gadget "USB_G_ANDROID" changes into drivers/usb/gadget/Kconfig which we have already moved to drivers/usb/gadget/legacy/Kconfig during last restructuring. Resolution (as recommended by Amit Pundir) Delete "USB_G_ANDROID" and dependent config option and keep only USB_CONFIGFS_F_MIDI specific changes from AOSP commit 2ccf4f4f216f "usb: gadget: Remove circular dependency on Config".
