Merge branch 'for-4.10' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tj/percpu
Pull percpu update from Tejun Heo: "This includes just one patch to reject non-power-of-2 alignments and trigger warning. Interestingly, this actually caught a bug in XEN ARM64" * 'for-4.10' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tj/percpu: percpu: ensure the requested alignment is power of two
