Subject: [GIT PULL] parisc fixes for v3.17

Hi Linus,

please pull a few late fixes for the parisc architecture for kernel 3.17 from 
  git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/deller/parisc-linux.git parisc-3.17-7

We avoid using -mfast-indirect-calls for 64bit kernel builds to prevent
building an unbootable kernel due to latest gcc changes. In the
pdc_stable/firmware-access driver we fix a few possible stack overflows
and we now call secure_computing_strict() instead of secure_computing()
which fixes upcoming SECCOMP patches in the for-next trees.
 
Thanks,
Helge
