Ok - could you please rebase these to to tip:master that is at:

git git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip.git master

In particular this has a WIP.x86/fpu branch with FPU fixes+changes queued up but
not merged upstream (yet), which conflict with these changes. I'd like to merge
them all together.

Thanks,

Ingo
