* 'release' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/lenb/linux-acpi-2.6:
  gcc-4.6: ACPI: fix unused but set variables in ACPI
  ACPI thermal: make procfs I/F depend on CONFIG_ACPI_PROCFS
  ACPI video: make procfs I/F depend on CONFIG_ACPI_PROCFS
  ACPI processor: remove deprecated ACPI procfs I/F
  ACPI power_resource: remove unused procfs I/F
  ACPI: remove deprecated ACPI procfs I/F
  ACPI: introduce drivers/acpi/sysfs.c
  ACPI: introduce module parameter acpi.aml_debug_output
  ACPI: introduce drivers/acpi/debugfs.c
  ACPI, APEI, ERST debug support
  ACPI, APEI, Manage GHES as platform devices
  ACPI, APEI, Rename CPER and GHES severity constants
  ACPI, APEI, Fix a typo of error path of apei_resources_request
  ACPI / ACPICA: Fix reference counting problems with GPE handlers
  ACPI: Add the check of ADR flag in course of finding ACPI handle for PCI device
  ACPI / Sleep: Drop acpi_suspend_finish()
  ACPI / Sleep: Consolidate suspend and hibernation routines
  ACPI / Wakeup: Simplify enabling of wakeup devices
  ACPI / Sleep: Rework enabling wakeup devices
  ACPI / Sleep: Free NVS copy if suspending of devices fails

Fixed up totally buggered "ACPI: fix unused but set variables in ACPI"
patch that doesn't even compile in the merge.

Thanks to Sedat Dilek &lt;sedat.dilek@googlemail.com&gt; for noticing the
breakage before I even pulled.  And a big "Grrr.." at Len for not even
bothering to compile the tree before asking me to pull.

With this change, the arch/tile Makefile will only check for a valid
combination of CROSS_COMPILE vs "uname -m" for a few common targets
that are typically the ones we get wrong (vmlinux, all, and modules).
The change handles the case of an empty "make" goal like "make all".

<title>mm: fix up some user-visible effects of the stack guard page</title>

<id>d7824370e26325c881b665350ce64fb0a4fde24a</id>
<content type='text'>
This commit makes the stack guard page somewhat less visible to user
space. It does this by:

 - not showing the guard page in /proc/&lt;pid&gt;/maps

   It looks like lvm-tools will actually read /proc/self/maps to figure
   out where all its mappings are, and effectively do a specialized
   "mlockall()" in user space.  By not showing the guard page as part of
   the mapping (by just adding PAGE_SIZE to the start for grows-up
   pages), lvm-tools ends up not being aware of it.

 - by also teaching the _real_ mlock() functionality not to try to lock
   the guard page.

   That would just expand the mapping down to create a new guard page,
   so there really is no point in trying to lock it in place.

It would perhaps be nice to show the guard page specially in
/proc/&lt;pid&gt;/maps (or at least mark grow-down segments some way), but
let's not open ourselves up to more breakage by user space from programs
that depends on the exact deails of the 'maps' file.

Special thanks to Henrique de Moraes Holschuh for diving into lvm-tools
source code to see what was going on with the whole new warning.
