Merge branch 'akpm' (patches from Andrew)
Merge patch-bomb from Andrew Morton:

 - a few misc things

 - Andy's "ambient capabilities"

 - fs/nofity updates

 - the ocfs2 queue

 - kernel/watchdog.c updates and feature work.

 - some of MM.  Includes Andrea's userfaultfd feature.

[ Hadn't noticed that userfaultfd was 'default y' when applying the
  patches, so that got fixed in this merge instead.  We do _not_ mark
  new features that nobody uses yet 'default y'   - Linus ]
