Pull signal/compat fixes from Al Viro:
"Fixes for several regressions introduced in the last signal.git pile,
along with fixing bugs in truncate and ftruncate compat (on just about
anything biarch at least one of those two had been done wrong)."* 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/viro/signal:
compat: restore timerfd settime and gettime compat syscalls
[regression] braino in "sparc: convert to ksignal"
fix compat truncate/ftruncate
switch lseek to COMPAT_SYSCALL_DEFINE
lseek() and truncate() on sparc really need sign extension

Pull MIPS updates from Ralf Baechle:
o Add basic support for the Mediatek/Ralink Wireless SoC family.
o The Qualcomm Atheros platform is extended by support for the new
QCA955X SoC series as well as a bunch of patches that get the code
ready for OF support.o Lantiq and BCM47XX platform have a few improvements and bug fixes.
o MIPS has sent a few patches that get the kernel ready for the
upcoming microMIPS support.o The rest of the series is made up of small bug fixes and cleanups
that relate to various parts of the MIPS code. The biggy in there is
a whitespace cleanup. After I was sent another set of whitespace
cleanup patches I decided it was the time to clean the whitespace
"issues" for once and and that touches many files below arch/mips/.Fix up silly conflicts, mostly due to whitespace cleanups.

I'm not sure why, but the hlist for each entry iterators were conceived
list_for_each_entry(pos, head, member)
The hlist ones were greedy and wanted an extra parameter:
hlist_for_each_entry(tpos, pos, head, member)
Why did they need an extra pos parameter? I'm not quite sure. Not only
they don't really need it, it also prevents the iterator from looking
exactly like the list iterator, which is unfortunate.Besides the semantic patch, there was some manual work required:
- Fix up the actual hlist iterators in linux/list.h
- Fix up the declaration of other iterators based on the hlist ones.
- A very small amount of places were using the 'node' parameter, this
was modified to use 'obj->member' instead.
- Coccinelle didn't handle the hlist_for_each_entry_safe iterator
properly, so those had to be fixed up manually.The semantic patch which is mostly the work of Peter Senna Tschudin is here:

Display the MIPS ISA version release in the /proc/cpuinfo file.
[ralf@linux-mips.org: Add support for MIPS I ... IV legacy architecture
revisions. Also differenciate between MIPS32 and MIPS64 versions instead
of lumping them together as just r1 and r2.Note to application programmers: this indicates the CPU's ISA level
It does not imply the current execution environment does support it. For
example an O32 application seeing "mips64r2" would still be restricted by
by the execution environment to 32-bit - but the kernel could run mips64r2
code. The same for a 32-bit kernel running on a 64-bit processor. This
field doesn't include ASEs or optional architecture modules nor other
detailed flags such as the availability of an FPU.]Signed-off-by: Steven J. Hill
