Subject: [GIT PULL] x86: add brk allocator for very early allocations

Aggregate patch below.

The following changes since commit 11f5585820ae805c48f41c09bc260d0e51744792:
  Ingo Molnar (1):
        Merge branch 'tracing/ftrace'

are available in the git repository at:

  git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jeremy/xen.git push/x86/brk

Jeremy Fitzhardinge (4):
      x86: make section delimiter symbols part of their section
      x86: add brk allocation for very, very early allocations
      x86-32: use brk segment for allocating initial kernel pagetable
      x86: use brk allocation for DMI
