Pull signal handling cleanups from Al Viro:
"sigaltstack infrastructure + conversion for x86, alpha and um,
COMPAT_SYSCALL_DEFINE infrastructure.
Note that there are several conflicts between "unify
SS_ONSTACK/SS_DISABLE definitions" and UAPI patches in mainline;
resolution is trivial - just remove definitions of SS_ONSTACK and
SS_DISABLED from arch/*/uapi/asm/signal.h; they are all identical and
include/uapi/linux/signal.h contains the unified variant."
Fixed up conflicts as per Al.
* 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/viro/signal:
alpha: switch to generic sigaltstack
new helpers: __save_altstack/__compat_save_altstack, switch x86 and um to those
generic compat_sys_sigaltstack()
introduce generic sys_sigaltstack(), switch x86 and um to it
new helper: compat_user_stack_pointer()
new helper: restore_altstack()
unify SS_ONSTACK/SS_DISABLE definitions
new helper: current_user_stack_pointer()
missing user_stack_pointer() instances
Bury the conditionals from kernel_thread/kernel_execve series
COMPAT_SYSCALL_DEFINE: infrastructure
Cross-architecture equivalent of rdusp(); default is
user_stack_pointer(current_pt_regs()) - that works for almost all
platforms that have usp saved in pt_regs. The only exception from
that is ia64 - we want memory stack, not the backing store for
register one.

All architectures have
CONFIG_GENERIC_KERNEL_THREAD
CONFIG_GENERIC_KERNEL_EXECVE
__ARCH_WANT_SYS_EXECVE
None of them have __ARCH_WANT_KERNEL_EXECVE and there are only two callers
of kernel_execve() (which is a trivial wrapper for do_execve() now) left.
Kill the conditionals and make both callers use do_execve().

Current generic API smp_call_function_single() is changed to avoid raise IPI
and call function in IPI handler on the same core which is necessary to support
KGDB switch master core in SMP case, so call generic_exec_single() directly
instead of smp_call_function_single().

Pull big execve/kernel_thread/fork unification series from Al Viro:
"All architectures are converted to new model. Quite a bit of that
stuff is actually shared with architecture trees; in such cases it's
literally shared branch pulled by both, not a cherry-pick.
A lot of ugliness and black magic is gone (-3KLoC total in this one):
- kernel_thread()/kernel_execve()/sys_execve() redesign.
We don't do syscalls from kernel anymore for either kernel_thread()
or kernel_execve():
kernel_thread() is essentially clone(2) with callback run before we
return to userland, the callbacks either never return or do
successful do_execve() before returning.
kernel_execve() is a wrapper for do_execve() - it doesn't need to
do transition to user mode anymore.
As a result kernel_thread() and kernel_execve() are
arch-independent now - they live in kernel/fork.c and fs/exec.c
resp. sys_execve() is also in fs/exec.c and it's completely
architecture-independent.
- daemonize() is gone, along with its parts in fs/*.c
- struct pt_regs * is no longer passed to do_fork/copy_process/
copy_thread/do_execve/search_binary_handler/->load_binary/do_coredump.
- sys_fork()/sys_vfork()/sys_clone() unified; some architectures
still need wrappers (ones with callee-saved registers not saved in
pt_regs on syscall entry), but the main part of those suckers is in
kernel/fork.c now."

most of it on the tooling side.
Main changes:
* ftrace enhancements and fixes from Steve Rostedt.
* uprobes fixes, cleanups and preparation for the ARM port from Oleg
Nesterov.
* UAPI fixes, from David Howels - prepares the arch/x86 UAPI
transition
* Separate perf tests into multiple objects, one per test, from Jiri
Olsa.
* Make hardware event translations available in sysfs, from Jiri
Olsa.
* Fixes to /proc/pid/maps parsing, preparatory to supporting data
maps, from Namhyung Kim
* Implement ui_progress for GTK, from Namhyung Kim
* Add framework for automated perf_event_attr tests, where tools with
different command line options will be run from a 'perf test', via
python glue, and the perf syscall will be intercepted to verify
that the perf_event_attr fields set by the tool are those expected,
from Jiri Olsa
* Add a 'link' method for hists, so that we can have the leader with
buckets for all the entries in all the hists. This new method is
now used in the default 'diff' output, making the sum of the
'baseline' column be 100%, eliminating blind spots.
* libtraceevent fixes for compiler warnings trying to make perf it
build on some distros, like fedora 14, 32-bit, some of the warnings
really pointed to real bugs.
* Add a browser for 'perf script' and make it available from the
report and annotate browsers. It does filtering to find the
scripts that handle events found in the perf.data file used. From
Feng Tang
* perf inject changes to allow showing where a task sleeps, from
Andrew Vagin.
* Makefile improvements from Namhyung Kim.
* Add --pre and --post command hooks in 'stat', from Peter Zijlstra.
* Don't stop synthesizing threads when one vanishes, this is for the
existing threads when we start a tool like trace.
* Use sched:sched_stat_runtime to provide a thread summary, this
produces the same output as the 'trace summary' subcommand of
tglx's original "trace" tool.
* Support interrupted syscalls in 'trace'
* Add an event duration column and filter in 'trace'.
* There are references to the man pages in some tools, so try to
build Documentation when installing, warning the user if that is
not possible, from Borislav Petkov.
* Give user better message if precise is not supported, from David
Ahern.
* Try to find cross-built objdump path by using the session
environment information in the perf.data file header, from Irina
Tirdea, original patch and idea by Namhyung Kim.
* Diplays more output on features check for make V=1, so that one can
figure out what is happening by looking at gcc output, etc. From
Jiri Olsa.
* Add on_exit implementation for systems without one, e.g. Android,
from Bernhard Rosenkraenzer.
* Only process events for vcpus of interest, helps handling large
number of events, from David Ahern.
* Cross compilation fixes for Android, from Irina Tirdea.
* Add documentation on compiling for Android, from Irina Tirdea.
* perf diff improvements from Jiri Olsa.
* Target (task/user/cpu/syswide) handling improvements, from Namhyung
Kim.
* Add support in 'trace' for tracing workload given by command line,
from Namhyung Kim.
