Subject: [GIT pull] core fixes for 3.10

Linus,

please pull the latest core-urgent-for-linus git tree from:

   git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip.git core-urgent-for-linus

 * Add a missing irq enable. Fallout of the idle conversion
 * Fix stackprotector wreckage caused by the idle conversion

Thanks,

	tglx

------------------>
James Bottomley (1):
      idle: Enable interrupts in the weak arch_cpu_idle() implementation

Thomas Gleixner (1):
      idle: Add the stack canary init to cpu_startup_entry()
