Merge branch 'merge' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/benh/powerpc
Pull powerpc fixes from Ben Herrenschmidt: "Here are a handful of small powerpc fixes. A couple of section mismatches (always worth fixing), a missing export of a new symbol causing build failures of modules, a page fault deadlock fix (interestingly that bug has been around for a LONG time, though it seems to be more easily triggered by KVM) and fixing pseries default idle loop in the absence of the cpuidle drivers (such as during boot)" * 'merge' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/benh/powerpc: powerpc: Default arch idle could cede processor on pseries fbdev/ps3fb: Fix section mismatch warning for ps3fb_probe powerpc: Fix section mismatch warning for prom_rtas_call powerpc: Fix possible deadlock on page fault powerpc: Export cpu_to_chip_id() to fix build error
