a591afc01d Merge branch 'x86-x32-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip
Pull x32 support for x86-64 from Ingo Molnar:
 "This tree introduces the X32 binary format and execution mode for x86:
  32-bit data space binaries using 64-bit instructions and 64-bit kernel
  syscalls.

  This allows applications whose working set fits into a 32 bits address
  space to make use of 64-bit instructions while using a 32-bit address
  space with shorter pointers, more compressed data structures, etc."

Fix up trivial context conflicts in arch/x86/{Kconfig,vdso/vma.c}

b716ad953a mm: search from free_area_cache for the bigger size
If the required size is bigger than cached_hole_size it is better to
search from free_area_cache - it is easier to get a free region,
specifically for the 64 bit process whose address space is large enough

Do it just as hugetlb_get_unmapped_area_topdown() in arch/x86/mm/hugetlbpage.c

910b2c5122 x86, amd: Include linux/elf.h since we use stuff from asm/elf.h
After merging the moduleh tree, today's linux-next build (x86_64
allmodconfig) failed like this:

  arch/x86/kernel/sys_x86_64.c:28:10: warning: 'enum align_flags' declared inside parameter list
  arch/x86/kernel/sys_x86_64.c:28:10: warning: its scope is only this definition or declaration, which is probably not what you
  want arch/x86/kernel/sys_x86_64.c:28:22: error: parameter 3 ('flags') has incomplete type
  [...]

Presumably caused by the module.h split interacting with a
new commit dfb09f9b7a ("x86, amd: Avoid cache aliasing penalties
on AMD family 15h") from the x8 tree.

9387f774d6 x86-32, amd: Move va_align definition to unbreak 32-bit build
hpa reported that dfb09f9b7a breaks 32-bit
builds with the following error message:

/home/hpa/kernel/linux-tip.cpu/arch/x86/kernel/cpu/amd.c:437: undefined
reference to `va_align'
/home/hpa/kernel/linux-tip.cpu/arch/x86/kernel/cpu/amd.c:436: undefined
reference to `va_align'

This is due to the fact that va_align is a global in a 64-bit only
compilation unit. Move it to mmap.c where it is visible to both
subarches.

dfb09f9b7a x86, amd: Avoid cache aliasing penalties on AMD family 15h
This patch provides performance tuning for the "Bulldozer" CPU. With its
shared instruction cache there is a chance of generating an excessive
number of cache cross-invalidates when running specific workloads on the
cores of a compute module.

This excessive amount of cross-invalidations can be observed if cache
lines backed by shared physical memory alias in bits [14:12] of their
virtual addresses, as those bits are used for the index generation.

This patch addresses the issue by clearing all the bits in the [14:12]
slice of the file mapping's virtual address at generation time, thus
forcing those bits the same for all mappings of a single shared library
across processes and, in doing so, avoids instruction cache aliases.

It also adds the command line option "align_va_addr=(32|64|on|off)" with
which virtual address alignment can be enabled for 32-bit or 64-bit x86
individually, or both, or be completely disabled.

This change leaves virtual region address allocation on other families
and/or vendors unaffected.

e28cbf2293 improve sys_newuname() for compat architectures
On an architecture that supports 32-bit compat we need to override the
reported machine in uname with the 32-bit value.  Instead of doing this
separately in every architecture introduce a COMPAT_UTS_MACHINE define in
<asm/compat.h> and apply it directly in sys_newuname().

d35c7b0e54 unified (weak) sys_pipe implementation
This replaces the duplicated arch-specific versions of "sys_pipe()" with
one unified implementation.  This removes almost 250 lines of duplicated
code.

It's marked __weak, so that *if* an architecture wants to override the
default implementation it can do so by simply having its own replacement
version, since many architectures use alternate calling conventions for
the 'pipe()' system call for legacy reasons (ie traditional UNIX
implementations often return the two file descriptors in registers)

I still haven't changed the cris version even though Linus says the BKL
isn't needed.  The arch maintainer can easily do it if there are really
no obstacles.

Since the x86 merge, lots of files that referenced their own filenames
are no longer correct.  Rather than keep them up to date, just delete
them, as they add no real value.

Additionally:
- fix up comment formatting in scx200_32.c
- Remove a credit from myself in setup_64.c from a time when we had no SCM
- remove longwinded history from tsc_32.c which can be figured out from
