Subject: [GIT PULL] parisc updates for v3.14

Hi Linus,

please pull the latest updates for the parisc architecture from:

  git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/deller/parisc-linux.git parisc-for-3.14

The three major changes in this patchset is a implementation for flexible
userspace memory maps, cache-flushing fixes (again), and a long-discussed ABI
change to make EWOULDBLOCK the same value as EAGAIN.

parisc has been the only platform where we had EWOULDBLOCK != EAGAIN to keep
HP-UX compatibility.  Since we will probably never implement full HP-UX
support, we prefer to drop this compatibility to make it easier for us with
Linux userspace programs which mostly never checked for both values.  We don't
expect major fall-outs because of this change, and if we face some, we will
simply rebuild the necessary applications in the debian archives.

The change to fs/exec.c only touches code which affects parisc since it's
inside a #ifdef CONFIG_STACK_GROWSUP section (and parisc is the only platform
where the stack grows upwards).

Thanks,
Helge
