       "The sole purpose of these changes is to shrink and simplify the RCU
        code base, which has suffered from creeping bloat over the past couple
        of years. The end result is a net removal of ~2700 lines of code:

      Linus Torvalds authored
      Pull objtool updates from Ingo Molnar:
       "This is an extensive rewrite of the objdump tool to track all stack
        pointer modifications through the machine instructions of disassembled
        functions found in kernel .o files.
      
        This re-design removes the prior dependency on CONFIG_FRAME_POINTERS,
        with the goal to prepare the tool to generate kernel debuginfo data in
        the future. There's also an increase in checking/tracking robustness
        as a side effect as well.

      Merge branch 'for-4.13/block' of git://git.kernel.dk/linux-block · c6b1e36c
      Linus Torvalds authored
      Pull core block/IO updates from Jens Axboe:
       "This is the main pull request for the block layer for 4.13. Not a huge
        round in terms of features, but there's a lot of churn related to some
        core cleanups.
      
        Note this depends on the UUID tree pull request, that Christoph
        already sent out.
      
        This pull request contains:
      
         - A series from Christoph, unifying the error/stats codes in the
           block layer. We now use blk_status_t everywhere, instead of using
           different schemes for different places.
      
         - Also from Christoph, some cleanups around request allocation and IO
           scheduler interactions in blk-mq.
      
         - And yet another series from Christoph, cleaning up how we handle
           and do bounce buffering in the block layer.
      
         - A blk-mq debugfs series from Bart, further improving on the support
           we have for exporting internal information to aid debugging IO
           hangs or stalls.
      
         - Also from Bart, a series that cleans up the request initialization
           differences across types of devices.
      
         - A series from Goldwyn Rodrigues, allowing the block layer to return
           failure if we will block and the user asked for non-blocking.
      
         - Patch from Hannes for supporting setting loop devices block size to
           that of the underlying device.
      
         - Two series of patches from Javier, fixing various issues with
           lightnvm, particular around pblk.
      
         - A series from me, adding support for write hints. This comes with
           NVMe support as well, so applications can help guide data placement
           on flash to improve performance, latencies, and write
           amplification.
      
         - A series from Ming, improving and hardening blk-mq support for
           stopping/starting and quiescing hardware queues.
      
         - Two pull requests for NVMe updates. Nothing major on the feature
           side, but lots of cleanups and bug fixes. From the usual crew.
      
         - A series from Neil Brown, greatly improving the bio rescue set
           support. Most notably, this kills the bio rescue work queues, if we
           don't really need them.
      
         - Lots of other little bug fixes that are all over the place"

      Pull uuid subsystem from Christoph Hellwig:
       "This is the new uuid subsystem, in which Amir, Andy and I have started
        consolidating our uuid/guid helpers and improving the types used for
        them. Note that various other subsystems have pulled in this tree, so
        I'd like it to go in early.
      
        UUID/GUID summary:
      
         - introduce the new uuid_t/guid_t types that are going to replace the
           somewhat confusing uuid_be/uuid_le types and make the terminology
           fit the various specs, as well as the userspace libuuid library.
           (me, based on a previous version from Amir)
      
         - consolidated generic uuid/guid helper functions lifted from XFS and
           libnvdimm (Amir and me)
      
         - conversions to the new types and helpers (Amir, Andy and me)"
