| ah, indeed - tip/x86/setup-lzma is currently not in tip/master (due to a 
| breakage that is being investigated), that's why i missed it.
| 
| So i took out the boot.h change from core/headers-fixes and your fix will

| those x86/header-fixes bits from you are in core/headers-fixes now:
| 
|  dbca1df: x86: headers cleanup - setup.h
|  a7c4e68: x86: headers cleanup - sigcontext32.h
|  4440270: x86: headers cleanup - prctl.h
| 
| So i think we are all sorted, agreed?

yep :) Personally I don't really care which
commits will be in tree (mine or Jaswinder).
The only what matter -- the work is done :)

There was some conversation about ptrace-abi.h.
Eventually we ended up that we should just remove
CONFIG_ for branch tracing since ptrace_bts_config
is supposed to be accessible from user space. At
least that is how I understood the conversation with
Peter.
