Subject: [for-next][PATCH 0/9] ftrace: 3.18 queue

This is my current queue for 3.18. The main update is a rewrite of the
trampoline accounting to get rid of the large memory usage needed
when having a trampoline for all functions (the current method creates
a descriptor for each function). The new way uses the current logic
of the hash tables, where an empty hash can mean all functions and
also the use of the notrace hash for all but a few functions.

OFF TOPIC:

As some of you may know, I've recently been having chronic pain
in my upper back, shoulder and down the arm. This has not let up, although
the narcotic drugs and steroids I've been prescribed has helped a lot.
Technically, I'm not suppose to be using a computer at all. But I couldn't
help myself and spent a few minutes here and there working on getting
these patches to pass all my tests. Note that I usually paid for that
work with an hour or so of more pain down the arm. There is a good chance
I will be having spinal surgery in the near future to remove the problem
cervical discs and have those vertebra fused. Hopefully, I will be back
to 100% shortly afterward. But until then, I will still be on hiatus from
the community again. But hopefully not for too long.
