Merge branch 'akpm' (Andrew's patch-bomb)
Merge third batch of patches from Andrew Morton: - Some MM stragglers - core SMP library cleanups (on_each_cpu_mask) - Some IPI optimisations - kexec - kdump - IPMI - the radix-tree iterator work - various other misc bits. "That'll do for -rc1. I still have ~10 patches for 3.4, will send those along when they've baked a little more." * emailed from Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org>: (35 commits) backlight: fix typo in tosa_lcd.c crc32: add help text for the algorithm select option mm: move hugepage test examples to tools/testing/selftests/vm mm: move slabinfo.c to tools/vm mm: move page-types.c from Documentation to tools/vm selftests/Makefile: make `run_tests' depend on `all' selftests: launch individual selftests from the main Makefile radix-tree: use iterators in find_get_pages* functions radix-tree: rewrite gang lookup using iterator radix-tree: introduce bit-optimized iterator fs/proc/namespaces.c: prevent crash when ns_entries[] is empty nbd: rename the nbd_device variable from lo to nbd pidns: add reboot_pid_ns() to handle the reboot syscall sysctl: use bitmap library functions ipmi: use locks on watchdog timeout set on reboot ipmi: simplify locking ipmi: fix message handling during panics ipmi: use a tasklet for handling received messages ipmi: increase KCS timeouts ipmi: decrease the IPMI message transaction time in interrupt mode ...
