Subject: [GIT PULL] parisc architecture updates for v4.5

Hi Linus,

please pull the patches for the parisc architecture for v4.5 from:

  git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/deller/parisc-linux.git parisc-4.5-1

This patchset includes two major fixes which are both scheduled for stable:
First, __ARCH_SI_PREAMBLE_SIZE was defined with a wrong value.
Second, huge page pte and TLB changes needed protection with a spinlock.
Other than that there are just some trivial optimizations and cleanups.

Thanks,
Helge
