cba4fbbff2 remove include/asm-*/ipc.h
All asm/ipc.h files do only #include <asm-generic/ipc.h>.

This patch therefore removes all include/asm-*/ipc.h files and moves the
contents of include/asm-generic/ipc.h to include/linux/ipc.h.

7dc0b22e3c core_pattern: ignore RLIMIT_CORE if core_pattern is a pipe
For some time /proc/sys/kernel/core_pattern has been able to set its output
destination as a pipe, allowing a user space helper to receive and
intellegently process a core.  This infrastructure however has some
shortcommings which can be enhanced.  Specifically:

1) The coredump code in the kernel should ignore RLIMIT_CORE limitation
   when core_pattern is a pipe, since file system resources are not being
   consumed in this case, unless the user application wishes to save the core,
   at which point the app is restricted by usual file system limits and
   restrictions.

2) The core_pattern code should be able to parse and pass options to the
   user space helper as an argv array.  The real core limit of the uid of the
   crashing proces should also be passable to the user space helper (since it
   is overridden to zero when called).

3) Some miscellaneous bugs need to be cleaned up (specifically the
   recognition of a recursive core dump, should the user mode helper itself
   crash.  Also, the core dump code in the kernel should not wait for the user
   mode helper to exit, since the same context is responsible for writing to
   the pipe, and a read of the pipe by the user mode helper will result in a
   deadlock.

This patch:

Remove the check of RLIMIT_CORE if core_pattern is a pipe.  In the event that
core_pattern is a pipe, the entire core will be fed to the user mode helper.

e4dc1b14d8 Use list_head in binfmt handling
Switch single-linked binfmt formats list to usual list_head's.  This leads
to one-liners in register_binfmt() and unregister_binfmt().  The downside
is one pointer more in struct linux_binfmt.  This is not a problem, since
the set of registered binfmts on typical box is very small -- (ELF +
something distro enabled for you).

Test-booted, played with executable .txt files, modprobe/rmmod binfmt_misc.

a0f97e06a4 kbuild: enable 'make CFLAGS=...' to add additional options to CC
The variable CFLAGS is a wellknown variable and the usage by
kbuild may result in unexpected behaviour.
On top of that several people over time has asked for a way to
pass in additional flags to gcc.

This patch replace use of CFLAGS with KBUILD_CFLAGS all over the
tree and enabling one to use:
make CFLAGS=...
to specify additional gcc commandline options.

One usecase is when trying to find gcc bugs but other
use cases has been requested too.

Patch was tested on following architectures:
alpha, arm, i386, x86_64, mips, sparc, sparc64, ia64, m68k

Test was simple to do a defconfig build, apply the patch and check
that nothing got rebuild.

ea5804015c [MIPS] Dyntick support for SMTC:
The kernel currently only supports broadcasting of the timer interrupt
from a single timer, not multicasting into two multicast groups of
processors.  So the implemented mechanism for SMTC works by broadcasting
the cp0 compare interrupt on VPE 0 and ignoring it on any additional VPEs.

This replaces the MIPS-specific to_tm function with the generic

that rtc_time_to_tm uses epoch 70 while to_tm uses 1970, so the result of
