Applied to

Thanks!

[1/2] mips: Add support for PC32 relocations in vmlinux
      (no commit info)
[2/2] kallsyms: Get rid of kallsyms relative base
      (no commit info)

Please look out for regression or issue reports or other follow up
comments, as they may result in the patch/series getting dropped or
reverted. Patches applied to an "unstable" branch are accepted pending
wider testing in -next and any post-commit review; they will generally
be moved to the main branch in a week if no issues are found.

Best regards,
