From: Adrian Bunk <bunk@stusta.de>

- dump_thread() is only used in fs/binfmt_aout.c and can therefore be
  removed on all architectures where CONFIG_BINFMT_AOUT is not

9c107805ab [PATCH] printk levels for i386 oops code.
Especially useful when users have booted with 'quiet'.  In the regular 'oops'
path, we set the console_loglevel before we start spewing debug info, but we
can call the backtrace code from other places now too, such as the spinlock
debugging code.

2308acca65 [PATCH] "tiny-make-id16-support-optional" fixes
It seems the "make UID16 support optional" patch was checked when it
edited the -tiny tree some time ago, but it wasn't checked whether it
still matches the current situation when it was submitted for inclusion
in -mm. This patch fixes the following bugs:
- ARCH_S390X does no longer exist, nowadays this has to be expressed
  through (S390 && 64BIT)
- in five architecture specific Kconfig files the UID16 options
  weren't removed

Additionally, it changes the fragile negative dependencies of UID16 to
positive dependencies (new architectures are more likely to not require
UID16 support).

dbc1651f0c [PATCH] rcu: don't set ->next_pending in rcu_start_batch()
I think it is better to set ->next_pending in the caller, when

add the per-arch mutex.h files for the remaining architectures.

We default to asm-generic/mutex-dec.h, because that performs
quite well on most arches. Arches that do not have atomic

instead. Arches can also provide their own implementation for
the mutex fastpath primitives.

620a6fd185 [PATCH] mutex subsystem, add asm-generic/mutex-[dec|xchg|null].h implementations
Add three (generic) mutex fastpath implementations.

The mutex-xchg.h implementation is atomic_xchg() based, and should
work fine on every architecture.

The mutex-dec.h implementation is atomic_dec_return() based - this
one too should work on every architecture, but might not perform the
most optimally on architectures that have no atomic-dec/inc instructions.

The mutex-null.h implementation forces all calls into the slowpath. This
is used for mutex debugging, but it can also be used on platforms that do
not want (or need) a fastpath at all.
