[GIT PULL] kmemcheck updates for -tip

From: Vegard Nossum

Hi,

Here are the latest kmemcheck developments. Changes are basically:

1. Bitfield annotations.
2. Fix REP handling on P4s.
3. Page allocator hooks.

At boot, I get two false positives, in copy_mount_options() and
__dequeue_signal(). I've also seen two spontaneous floods of warnings from
somewhere in aio code, but I couldn't pinpoint exactly why things went
wrong. I guess it will need a bit more research.
