Merge branch 'master' into for-next
Fast-forwarded to current state of Linus' tree as there are patches to be applied for files that didn't exist on the old branch.

-RAR Handler (memrar) Driver TODO Items
-======================================
-
-Maintainer: Eugene Epshteyn <eugene.epshteyn@intel.com>
-
-memrar.h
---------
-1. This header exposes the driver's user space and kernel space
- interfaces. It should be moved to <linux/rar/memrar.h>, or
- something along those lines, when this memrar driver is moved out
- of `staging'.
- a. It would be ideal if staging/rar_register/rar_register.h was
- moved to the same directory.
-
-memrar_allocator.[ch]
----------------------
-1. Address potential fragmentation issues with the memrar_allocator.
-
-2. Hide struct memrar_allocator details/fields. They need not be
- exposed to the user.
- a. Forward declare struct memrar_allocator.
- b. Move all three struct definitions to `memrar_allocator.c'
- source file.
- c. Add a memrar_allocator_largest_free_area() function, or
- something like that to get access to the value of the struct
- memrar_allocator "largest_free_area" field. This allows the
- struct memrar_allocator fields to be completely hidden from
- the user. The memrar_handler code really only needs this for
- statistic gathering on-demand.
- d. Do the same for the "capacity" field as the
- "largest_free_area" field.
-
-3. Move memrar_allocator.* to kernel `lib' directory since it is HW
- neutral.
- a. Alternatively, use lib/genalloc.c instead.
- b. A kernel port of Doug Lea's malloc() implementation may also
- be an option.
-
-memrar_handler.c
-----------------
-1. Split user space interface (ioctl code) from core/kernel code,
- e.g.:
- memrar_handler.c -> memrar_core.c, memrar_user.c
