Subject: linux-next: manual merge of the akpm tree with the vfs tree

Hi Andrew,

Today's linux-next merge of the akpm tree got a conflict in
arch/ia64/kernel/perfmon.c between commit f9bd4f3ed24d ("make get_file()
return its argument") from the vfs tree and commit "mm: kill vma flag
VM_RESERVED and mm->reserved_vm counter" from the akpm tree.

I fixed it up (see below) and can carry the fix as necessary (no action
is required).
