Merge tag 'for-linus-4.1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rw/uml

Pull UML updates from Richard Weinberger:
 - hostfs saw a face lifting
 - old/broken stuff was removed (SMP, HIGHMEM, SKAS3/4)
 - random cleanups and bug fixes

+ * setup_physmem() - Setup physical memory for UML
+ * @start:	Start address of the physical kernel memory,
+ *		i.e start address of the executable image.
+ * @reserve_end:	end address of the physical kernel memory.
+ * @len:	Length of total physical memory that should be mapped/made
+ *		available, in bytes.
+ * @highmem:	Number of highmem bytes that should be mapped/made available.
+ *
+ * Creates an unlinked temporary file of size (len + highmem) and memory maps
+ * it on the last executable image address (uml_reserved).
+ *
+ * The offset is needed as the length of the total physical memory
+ * (len + highmem) includes the size of the memory used be the executable image,
+ * but the mapped-to address is the last address of the executable image
+ * (uml_reserved == end address of executable image).
+ *
+ * The memory mapped memory of the temporary file is used as backing memory
+ * of all user space processes/kernel tasks.
