Merge branch 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/s390/linux
Pull s390 updates from Martin Schwidefsky:
"There is only one new feature in this pull for the 4.4 merge window,
most of it is small enhancements, cleanup and bug fixes:
- Add the s390 backend for the software dirty bit tracking. This
adds two new pgtable functions pte_clear_soft_dirty and
pmd_clear_soft_dirty which is why there is a hit to
arch/x86/include/asm/pgtable.h in this pull request.
- A series of cleanup patches for the AP bus, this includes the
removal of the support for two outdated crypto cards (PCICC and
PCICA).
- The irq handling / signaling on buffer full in the runtime
instrumentation code is dropped.
- Some micro optimizations: remove unnecessary memory barriers for a
couple of functions: [smb_]rmb, [smb_]wmb, atomics, bitops, and for
spin_unlock. Use the builtin bswap if available and make
test_and_set_bit_lock more cache friendly.
- Statistics and a tracepoint for the diagnose calls to the
hypervisor.
- The CPU measurement facility support to sample KVM guests is
improved.
- The vector instructions are now always enabled for user space
processes if the hardware has the vector facility. This simplifies
the FPU handling code. The fpu-internal.h header is split into fpu
internals, api and types just like x86.
- Cleanup and improvements for the common I/O layer.
- Rework udelay to solve a problem with kprobe. udelay has busy loop
semantics but still uses an idle processor state for the wait"
