This is the start of the stable review cycle for the 3.4.110 release.
There are 65 patches in this series, all will be posted as a response
to this one. If anyone has any issues with these being applied, please
let me know.


Build results:
total: 97 pass: 96 fail: 1
Failed builds:
m68k:sun3_defconfig

Qemu test results:
total: 63 pass: 63 fail: 0

Build failure is due to inconsistent kallsyms data when building
m68k:sun3_defconfig.
From the build log:

Inconsistent kallsyms data
This is a bug - please report about it
Try make KALLSYMS_EXTRA_PASS=1 as a workaround
Makefile:922: recipe for target 'vmlinux' failed

Bisect says that the problem is caused by "vfs: Test for and handle paths
that are unreachable from their mnt_root", and reverting that patch
fixes the problem. No idea what is going on. Copying Eric and Geert.

This is odd...

sun3_defconfig builds fine for me with gcc-4.1.2 20061115 (prerelease)
(Ubuntu 4.1.1-21) and with gcc-4.9.0 (kernel.org crosstool).

Passes for me as well with 4.9.0 from kernel.org crosstool.

Looks like a false alarm. Sorry for the noise.
