Subject: [GIT PULL] parisc architecture fixes for v4.9-rc1

Hi Linus,

please pull some final updates and fixes for this merge window for the parisc architecture from:

  git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/deller/parisc-linux.git parisc-4.9-2

Changes include:
 
- Fix boot problems with new memblock allocator on rp3410 machine

- Increase initial kernel mapping size for 32- and 64-bit kernels, this allows
  to boot bigger kernels which have many modules built-in

- Fix kernel layout regarding __gp and move exception table into RO section

- Show trap names in crashes, use extable.h header instead of module.h

Thanks,
Helge
