  stuff..."

* 'work.set_fs-exec' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/viro/vfs:
  binfmt_elf_fdpic: remove the set_fs(KERNEL_DS) in elf_fdpic_core_dump
  binfmt_elf: remove the set_fs(KERNEL_DS) in elf_core_dump
  binfmt_elf: remove the set_fs in fill_siginfo_note
  signal: refactor copy_siginfo_to_user32
  powerpc/spufs: simplify spufs core dumping
  powerpc/spufs: stop using access_ok
  powerpc/spufs: fix copy_to_user while atomic
