4ba8216cd9 BKL: That's all, folks
This removes the implementation of the big kernel lock,
at last. A lot of people have worked on this in the
past, I so the credit for this patch should be with
everyone who participated in the hunt.

The names on the Cc list are the people that were the
most active in this, according to the recorded git
history, in alphabetical order.

98562ad8cb module: explicitly align module_version_attribute structure
We force particular alignment when we generate attribute structures
when generation MODULE_VERSION() data and we need to make sure that
this alignment is followed when we iterate over these structures,
otherwise we may crash on platforms whose natural alignment is not
sizeof(void *), such as m68k.

3c18d4de86 Expand CONFIG_DEBUG_LIST to several other list operations
When list debugging is enabled, we aim to readably show list corruption
errors, and the basic list_add/list_del operations end up having extra
debugging code in them to do some basic validation of the list entries.

However, "list_del_init()" and "list_move[_tail]()" ended up avoiding
the debug code due to how they were written. This fixes that.

So the _next_ time we have list_move() problems with stale list entries,
we'll hopefully have an easier time finding them..

456d66ecd0 RTC: Re-enable UIE timer/polling emulation

6e57b1d6a8 RTC: Revert UIE emulation removal
Uwe pointed out that my alarm based UIE emulation is not sufficient
to replace the older timer/polling based UIE emulation on devices
where there is no alarm irq. This causes rtc devices without alarms
to return -EINVAL to UIE ioctls. The fix is to re-instate the old
timer/polling method for devices without alarm irqs.

This patch reverts the following commits:
042620a018 - Remove UIE emulation
1daeddd596 - Cleanup removed UIE emulation declaration
b5cc8ca1c9 - Remove Kconfig symbol for UIE emulation

The emulation mode will still need to be wired-in with a following
patch before it will work.

58a69cb47e workqueue, freezer: unify spelling of 'freeze' + 'able' to 'freezable'
There are two spellings in use for 'freeze' + 'able' - 'freezable' and
'freezeable'.  The former is the more prominent one.  The latter is
mostly used by workqueue and in a few other odd places.  Unify the
spelling to 'freezable'.

a7d6e4ecdb thp: prevent hugepages during args/env copying into the user stack
Transparent hugepages can only be created if rmap is fully
functional. So we must prevent hugepages to be created while
is_vma_temporary_stack() is true.

This also optmizes away some harmless but unnecessary setting of
khugepaged_scan.address and it switches some BUG_ON to VM_BUG_ON.

795abaf1e4 klist: Fix object alignment on 64-bit.
Commit c0e69a5bbc ("klist.c: bit 0 in pointer can't be used as flag")
intended to make sure that all klist objects were at least pointer size
aligned, but used the constant "4" which only works on 32-bit.

Use "sizeof(void *)" which is correct in all cases.
