Merge branch 'akpm' (Andrew's patch-bomb)

Merge misc patches from Andrew Morton:
 "Incoming:

   - lots of misc stuff

   - backlight tree updates

   - lib/ updates

   - Oleg's percpu-rwsem changes

   - checkpatch

   - rtc

   - aoe

   - more checkpoint/restart support

  I still have a pile of MM stuff pending - Pekka should be merging
  later today after which that is good to go.  A number of other things
  are twiddling thumbs awaiting maintainer merges."
