Cover letter [patch 0/7] A series of cleanup patches
Andi, Andrew:
Here's a little set of cleanup patches. They're general cleanups, but also the final prerequisites for the Xen series.
They are:
- move pieces of i386 SMP into a common file, so they can be used by other sub-arches and Xen
- Make vsyscall (and vdso) use the common linux/elfnote.h macros
- Add kstrndup
- Add argv_split
- Cleanup and generalize the call_usermodehelper APIs
- Add a common orderly poweroff function
- And some more usermodehelper cleanups, to change the "wait" arg from a semi-cryptic int into a less cryptic enum.
Thanks,
J
