Subject: [PATCH 0/4] x86: fix kernel address printk exposures

These are some changes suggested by Linus to remove some kernel address
exposures in printk.  Most notably, the x86 stack dump no longer prints
full kernel text addresses.

There's also a fix for the faddr2line script which is used for
converting a function offset into a source code file name and line
number.

Josh Poimboeuf (4):
  scripts/faddr2line: fix "size mismatch" error
  x86/dumpstack: remove kernel text addresses from stack dump
  x86/dumpstack: remove raw stack dump
  mm: remove kernel address exposure in free_reserved_area()
