Merge branch 'akpm' (more patches from Andrew)

Merge patches from Andrew Morton:
"Most of the rest of MM, plus a few dribs and drabs.

I still have quite a few irritating patches left around: ones with
dubious testing results, lack of review, ones which should have gone

the merge window, but they're such a PITA."
