Merge branch 'akpm' (Andrew's patch-bomb)
Merge misc patches from Andrew Morton: - the "misc" tree - stuff from all over the map - checkpatch updates - fatfs - kmod changes - procfs - cpumask - UML - kexec - mqueue - rapidio - pidns - some checkpoint-restore feature work. Reluctantly. Most of it delayed a release. I'm still rather worried that we don't have a clear roadmap to completion for this work. * emailed from Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org>: (78 patches) kconfig: update compression algorithm info c/r: prctl: add ability to set new mm_struct::exe_file c/r: prctl: extend PR_SET_MM to set up more mm_struct entries c/r: procfs: add arg_start/end, env_start/end and exit_code members to /proc/$pid/stat syscalls, x86: add __NR_kcmp syscall fs, proc: introduce /proc/<pid>/task/<tid>/children entry sysctl: make kernel.ns_last_pid control dependent on CHECKPOINT_RESTORE aio/vfs: cleanup of rw_copy_check_uvector() and compat_rw_copy_check_uvector() eventfd: change int to __u64 in eventfd_signal() fs/nls: add Apple NLS pidns: make killed children autoreap pidns: use task_active_pid_ns in do_notify_parent rapidio/tsi721: add DMA engine support rapidio: add DMA engine support for RIO data transfers ipc/mqueue: add rbtree node caching support tools/selftests: add mq_perf_tests ipc/mqueue: strengthen checks on mqueue creation ipc/mqueue: correct mq_attr_ok test ipc/mqueue: improve performance of send/recv selftests: add mq_open_tests ...

+ * POSIX Message Queue default values:
+ *
+ * MIN_*: Lowest value an admin can set the maximum unprivileged limit to
+ * DFLT_*MAX: Default values for the maximum unprivileged limits
+ * DFLT_{MSG,MSGSIZE}: Default values used when the user doesn't supply
+ * an attribute to the open call and the queue must be created
+ * HARD_*: Highest value the maximums can be set to. These are enforced
+ * on CAP_SYS_RESOURCE apps as well making them inviolate (so make them
+ * suitably high)
+ *
+ * POSIX Requirements:
+ * Per app minimum openable message queues - 8. This does not map well
+ * to the fact that we limit the number of queues on a per namespace
+ * basis instead of a per app basis. So, make the default high enough
+ * that no given app should have a hard time opening 8 queues.
+ * Minimum maximum for HARD_MSGMAX - 32767. I bumped this to 65536.
+ * Minimum maximum for HARD_MSGSIZEMAX - POSIX is silent on this. However,
+ * we have run into a situation where running applications in the wild
+ * require this to be at least 5MB, and preferably 10MB, so I set the
+ * value to 16MB in hopes that this user is the worst of the bunch and
+ * the new maximum will handle anyone else. I may have to revisit this
+ * in the future.
