    Pull structure randomization updates from Kees Cook:
     "Now that IPC and other changes have landed, enable manual markings for
      randstruct plugin, including the task_struct.
    
      This is the rest of what was staged in -next for the gcc-plugins, and
      comes in three patches, largest first:
    
       - mark "easy" structs with __randomize_layout
    
       - mark task_struct with an optional anonymous struct to isolate the
         __randomize_layout section
    
       - mark structs to opt _out_ of automated marking (which will come
         later)
    
      And, FWIW, this continues to pass allmodconfig (normal and patched to
      enable gcc-plugins) builds of x86_64, i386, arm64, arm, powerpc, and
      s390 for me"
    
    * tag 'gcc-plugins-v4.13-rc2' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/kees/linux:
