Subject: [git pull] x86 updates


Linus, please pull the latest x86 git tree from:

    git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/x86/linux-2.6-x86.git

Shortlog attached below.

It includes 16 x86 fixes, and 4 general fixes:

   - brk randomization fixes for ancient binaries
   - virtio trivial fix (acked by Rusty)
   - __FINITDATA added to include/linux/init.h [relied on by an x86 fix]
   - include/linux/cpuidle.h trivial sparse fix

there's also a MAINTAINERS file update for the new RDC R-321X SoC x86 
subarch. Thanks,

	Ingo
