Subject: [GIT PULL] parisc architecture updates for 4.7-rc1

Hi Linus,

Please pull the parisc architecture patches for the kernel 4.7 merge window from 
  git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/deller/parisc-linux.git parisc-4.7-1

Changes in this patch set:

- Add native high-resolution timing code for sched_clock() and other timing
  functions based on the processor internal cr16 cycle counters
- Add syscall tracepoint support
- Add regset support
- Speed up get_user() and put_user() functions
- Updated futex.h to match generic implementation - by John David Anglin
- A few smaller ftrace build fixes
- Fixed thuge-gen kernel self test to utilize architectured MAP_HUGETLB value
- Added parisc architecture to seccomp_bpf kernel self test
- Various typo fixes - by Andrea Gelmini

Thanks,
Helge
