This is the start of the stable review cycle for the 3.14.3 release.
There are 158 patches in this series, all will be posted as a response
to this one.  If anyone has any issues with these being applied, please
let me know.

Responses should be made by Tue May  6 15:38:47 UTC 2014.
Anything received after that time might be too late.


Build results:
	total: 127 pass: 121 skipped: 4 fail: 2

Qemu tests all passed.

Additional failure is from new build target unicore32:defconfig, which fails
in all releases. The second failure is powerpc:allmodconfig which, together
with powerpc:allyesconfig, fails to build in 3.14 and later kernels.
Results are therefore as expected.

Details are available at http://server.roeck-us.net:8010/builders.


If unicore32 doesn't build on any kernel version, should we just drop
the whole arch?


Idea was to put the maintainer on notice. If nothing changes, that
may be a good idea.

I'd suggest the same for powerpc, but odds are, there are still users :)

Yes, the company paying my salary, for example :-). But then if failure to build
allmodconfig/allyesconfig is a criteria, arm would be a prime target as well ...

Might be a discussion point for the kernel summit, though: What are criteria
for an architecture to be accepted, and for it to remain in the kernel ?
Availability of a pre-built tool set (score drops out)? defconfig build
failure (unicore32 be gone) ? Something else ?
