Merge branch 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/ebiederm/user-namespace

Pull timer fix from Eric Biederman:
 "This fixes an issue of confusing injected signals with the signals
  from posix timers that has existed since posix timers have been in the
  kernel.

  This patch is slightly simpler than my earlier version of this patch
  as I discovered in testing that I had misspelled "#ifdef
  CONFIG_POSIX_TIMERS". So I deleted that unnecessary test and made
  setting of resched_timer uncondtional.

  I have tested this and verified that without this patch there is a
  nasty hang that is easy to trigger, and with this patch everything
  works properly"

Thomas Gleixner dixit:
 "It fixes the problem at hand and covers the ptrace case as well, which
  I missed.
