Merge branch 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/ebiederm/user-namespace

Pull namespace updates from Eric Biederman:
"This is a set of small fixes that were mostly stumbled over during
more significant development. This proc fix and the fix to
posix-timers are the most significant of the lot.

There is a lot of good development going on but unfortunately it
didn't quite make the merge window"

proc: Fix unbalanced hard link numbers
signal: Make kill_proc_info static
rlimit: Properly call security_task_setrlimit
signal: Remove unused definition of sig_user_definied
ia64: Remove unused IA64_TASK_SIGHAND_OFFSET and IA64_SIGHAND_SIGLOCK_OFFSET

tree wide: use kvfree() than conditional kfree()/vfree()

There are many locations that do

if (memory_was_allocated_by_vmalloc)
vfree(ptr);
else

but kvfree() can handle both kmalloc()ed memory and vmalloc()ed memory
using is_vmalloc_addr(). Unless callers have special reasons, we can
replace this branch with kvfree(). Please check and reply if you found
problems.
