hwmon: Check for ACPI resource conflicts
Check for ACPI resource conflicts in hwmon drivers. I've included
all Super-I/O and PCI drivers.
I've voluntarily left out:
* Vendor-specific drivers: if they conflicted on any system, this would
pretty much mean that they conflict on all systems, and we would know
by now.
* Legacy ISA drivers (lm78 and w83781d): they only support chips found
on old designs were ACPI either wasn't supported or didn't deal with
thermal management.
* Drivers accessing the I/O resources indirectly (e.g. through SMBus):
the checks are already done where they belong, i.e. in the bus drivers.

Use this new swab.h in byteorder/[big|little]_endian.h and
remove the two old swab headers.
Although the inclusion of asm/byteorder.h looks strange in
linux/swab.h, this will allow each arch to move the actual
arch overrides for the swab bits in an asm file and then
the includes can be cleaned up without requiring a flag day
for all arches at once.
Keep providing __fswabXX in case some userspace was using them
directly, but the revised __swabXX should be used instead in
any new code and will always do constant folding not dependent
on the optimization level, which means the __constant versions
can be phased out in-kernel.
Arches that use the old-style arch macros will lose their
optimized versions until they move to the new style, but at
least they will still compile. Many arches have already moved
and the patches to move the remaining arches are trivial.

coredump_filter: permit changing of the default filter
Introduce a new kernel parameter `coredump_filter'. Setting a value to
this parameter causes the default bitmask of coredump_filter to be
changed.
It is useful for users to change coredump_filter settings for the whole
system at boot time. Without this parameter, users have to change
coredump_filter settings for each /proc/<pid>/ in an initializing script.

SEND_SIG_NOINFO: set si_pid to tgid instead of pid
POSIX requires the si_pid to be the process id of the sender, so ->si_pid
should really be set to 'tgid'. This change does have following changes
in behavior:
- When sending pdeath_signal on re-parent to a sub-thread, ->si_pid
cannot be used to identify the thread that did the re-parent since
it will now show the tgid instead of thread id.
- A multi-threaded application that expects to find the specific
thread that encountered a SIGPIPE using the ->si_pid will now
break.

SEND_SIG_NOINFO: masquerade si_pid when crossing pid-ns boundary
For SEND_SIG_NOINFO, si_pid is currently set to the pid of sender
in sender's active pid namespace. But if the receiver is in a
Eg: when parent sends the 'pdeath_signal' to a child that is in
a descendant pid namespace, we should set si_pid 0.

documentation: how to use DOC: section blocks

the addition of inline source file comments that are general in nature

fbdev/logo: check compatibility of main and extra logos
The code to draw penguin logos always uses some properties of the main logo.
This is incorrect if additional logos (CONFIG_FB_LOGO_EXTRA=y) have different
types than the main logo, which causes corrupted logo images.
http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12181
Hence skip additional logos that are not compatible with the main logo.
Technically, it's possible to draw multiple logos of different types on
truecolor displays, but this would complicate the (already quite
complicated) logo drawing code even more.
