Merge branch 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/viro/signal
Pull compat cleanup from Al Viro: "Mostly about syscall wrappers this time; there will be another pile with patches in the same general area from various people, but I'd rather push those after both that and vfs.git pile are in." * 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/viro/signal: syscalls.h: slightly reduce the jungles of macros get rid of union semop in sys_semctl(2) arguments make do_mremap() static sparc: no need to sign-extend in sync_file_range() wrapper ppc compat wrappers for add_key(2) and request_key(2) are pointless x86: trim sys_ia32.h x86: sys32_kill and sys32_mprotect are pointless get rid of compat_sys_semctl() and friends in case of ARCH_WANT_OLD_COMPAT_IPC merge compat sys_ipc instances consolidate compat lookup_dcookie() convert vmsplice to COMPAT_SYSCALL_DEFINE switch getrusage() to COMPAT_SYSCALL_DEFINE switch epoll_pwait to COMPAT_SYSCALL_DEFINE convert sendfile{,64} to COMPAT_SYSCALL_DEFINE switch signalfd{,4}() to COMPAT_SYSCALL_DEFINE make SYSCALL_DEFINE<n>-generated wrappers do asmlinkage_protect make HAVE_SYSCALL_WRAPPERS unconditional consolidate cond_syscall and SYSCALL_ALIAS declarations teach SYSCALL_DEFINE<n> how to deal with long long/unsigned long long get rid of duplicate logics in __SC_....[1-6] definitions
