linux-next: manual merge of the signal tree with the vfs tree

From: Stephen Rothwell
Date: Fri Sep 28 2012 - 01:57:36 EST


Hi Al,

Today's linux-next merge of the signal tree got a conflict in fs/exec.c
between commit 5b8a94d461a7 ("coredump: move core dump functionality into
its own file") from the vfs tree and commits 70446600fa12 ("arm:
introduce ret_from_kernel_execve(), switch to generic kernel_execve()")
and 5e41814a7d8b ("arm: get rid of execve wrapper, switch to generic
execve() implementation") from the signal tree.

I fixed it up (see below) and can carry the fix as necessary (no action
is required).

BTW, Al, you have that vfs tree commit (and others) authored by you ...
