    Merge branch 'x86-x32-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip · 7125764c
    Linus Torvalds authored
    Pull compat time conversion changes from Peter Anvin:
     "Despite the branch name this is really neither an x86 nor an
      x32-specific patchset, although it the implementation of the
      discussions that followed the x32 security hole a few months ago.
    
      This removes get/put_compat_timespec/val() and replaces them with
      compat_get/put_timespec/val() which are savvy as to the current status
      of COMPAT_USE_64BIT_TIME.
    
      It removes several unused and/or incorrect/misleading functions (like
      compat_put_timeval_convert which doesn't in fact do any conversion)
      and also replaces several open-coded implementations what is now
      called compat_convert_timespec() with that function"
    
    * 'x86-x32-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip:
      compat: Fix sparse address space warnings
      compat: Get rid of (get|put)_compat_time(val|spec)
