Cover letter [PATCH 0/2] ARM: minor sigpage enhancements

Russell,

Would you consider taking these for 3.17? I've been carrying the sigpage placement randomization as part of the VDSO patch set but it seems worthwhile on its own. Using _install_special_mapping for the VDSO and similar VMAs was recently suggested by Andy Lutomirski.

Nathan Lynch (2):
ARM: use _install_special_mapping for sigpage
ARM: place sigpage at a random offset above stack

Russell, okay to add these to your patch tracker?
