Merge branch 'akpm' (patches from Andrew)

Merge even more updates from Andrew Morton:

 - a kernel-wide sweep of show_stack()

 - pagetable cleanups

 - abstract out accesses to mmap_sem - prep for mmap_sem scalability work

 - hch's user acess work

Subsystems affected by this patch series: debug, mm/pagemap, mm/maccess,
mm/documentation.
