Linus Torvalds 992de5a8ec Merge branch 'akpm' (patches from Andrew)
Merge misc updates from Andrew Morton:
 "Bite-sized chunks this time, to avoid the MTA ratelimiting woes.

   - fs/notify updates

   - ocfs2

   - some of MM"

That laconic "some MM" is mainly the removal of remap_file_pages(),
which is a big simplification of the VM, and which gets rid of a *lot*
of random cruft and special cases because we no longer support the
non-linear mappings that it used.

From a user interface perspective, nothing has changed, because the
remap_file_pages() syscall still exists, it's just done by emulating the
old behavior by creating a lot of individual small mappings instead of
one non-linear one.

The emulation is slower than the old "native" non-linear mappings, but
nobody really uses or cares about remap_file_pages(), and simplifying
the VM is a big advantage.
