    Ok, these work a lot better and cherry-pick cleanly on top of -rc7.

    We can certainly leave out this one - the rest still cherry-picks
    cleanly.

    I was able to leave out this one as well.

    Ok, these seem essential and cherry-pick cleanly.

    Would be nice to avoid the 'Sanitize task_numa_fault() callsites'
    change, but the remaining fixes rely on it and are well tested
    together.

    I've stuck these into tip:core/urgent with a -stable tag and will
    send them to Linus if he cuts an -rc8 (which seems unlikely at this
    point though).

    If there's no -rc8 then please forward the above list of 6 commits
    to Greg so that it can be applied to -stable.

    Thanks,

    Ingo
