Merge branch 'akpm' (patches from Andrew)

Merge more updates from Andrew Morton:

 - the rest of MM

 - various misc things

 - procfs updates

 - lib/ updates

 - checkpatch updates

 - kdump/kexec updates

 - add kvmalloc helpers, use them

 - time helper updates for Y2038 issues. We're almost ready to remove
   current_fs_time() but that awaits a btrfs merge.

 - add tracepoints to DAX
