Subject: 


Hi Linus,

Could you pull this branch please?  It contains some fixups for the UAPI stuff.

There are four main parts:

 (1) I found I needed some more fixups in the wake of testing Arm64 (some
     asm/unistd.h files had weird guards that caused problems - mostly in
     arches for which I don't have a compiler) and some __KERNEL__ splitting
     needed to take place in Arm64.

 (2) I found that c6x was missing some __KERNEL__ guards in its asm/signal.h.
     Mark Salter pointed me at a tree with a patch to remove that file
     entirely and use the asm-generic variant instead.  I pulled his tree
     since it also give me a defconfig for c6x to use in testing.

 (3) m68k turned out to have a header installation problem due to it lacking a
     kvm_para.h file.

     The conditional installation bits for linux/kvm_para.h, linux/kvm.h and
     linux/a.out.h weren't very well specified - and didn't work if an arch
     didn't have the asm/ version of that file, but there *was* an
     asm-generic/ version.

     It seems the "ifneq $((wildcard ...),)" for each of those three headers
     in include/kernel/Kbuild is invoked twice during header installation, and
     the second time it matches on the just installed asm-generic/kvm_para.h
     file and thus incorrectly installs linux/kvm_para.h as well.

     Most arches actually have an asm/kvm_para.h, so this wasn't detectable in
     those.

 (4) Fix problems with libfdt.h by reverting the changes to that particular
     header file.
