Merge branch 'akpm' (patches from Andrew)
Merge yet more updates from Andrew Morton:
- lots of little subsystems
- a few post-linux-next MM material. Most of the rest awaits more
merging of other trees.
Subsystems affected by this series: alpha, procfs, misc, core-kernel,
bitmap, lib, lz4, checkpatch, nilfs, kdump, rapidio, gcov, bfs, relay,
resource, ubsan, reboot, fault-injection, lzo, apparmor, and mm (swap,
memory-hotplug, pagemap, cleanups, and gup).
* emailed patches from Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org>: (86 commits)
mm: fix some spelling mistakes in comments
mm: simplify follow_pte{,pmd}
mm: unexport follow_pte_pmd
apparmor: remove duplicate macro list_entry_is_head()
lib/lzo/lzo1x_compress.c: make lzogeneric1x_1_compress() static
fault-injection: handle EI_ETYPE_TRUE
reboot: hide from sysfs not applicable settings
reboot: allow to override reboot type if quirks are found
reboot: remove cf9_safe from allowed types and rename cf9_force
reboot: allow to specify reboot mode via sysfs
reboot: refactor and comment the cpu selection code
lib/ubsan.c: mark type_check_kinds with static keyword
kcov: don't instrument with UBSAN
ubsan: expand tests and reporting
ubsan: remove UBSAN_MISC in favor of individual options
ubsan: enable for all*config builds
ubsan: disable UBSAN_TRAP for all*config
ubsan: disable object-size sanitizer under GCC
ubsan: move cc-option tests into Kconfig
ubsan: remove redundant -Wno-maybe-uninitialized
...
