Subject[GIT PULL] parisc updates for v3.12-rc5
Hi Linus,

Please pull the latest parisc fixes from

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/deller/parisc-linux.git parisc-3.12

This patchset includes a bugfix to prevent a kernel crash when memory in
page zero is accessed by the kernel itself, e.g. via
probe_kernel_read(). Furthermore we now export flush_cache_page() which
is needed (indirectly) by the lustre filesystem. The other patches
remove unused functions and optimizes the page fault handler to only
evaluate variables if needed, which again protects against possible
kernel crashes.

Thanks,
Helge
