I dropped patch 1 (hibernate), cherry-picked patch 2 from mainline
("cpus stuck in the kernel", already pushed by Will to 4.7-rc5) and
merged patches 3-6, with the amendments that James mentioned.

The kdump patches, including the "Documentation" one from James require
more review, testing and acks by the corresponding maintainers (kdump,
DT). You also don't seem to have added a s-o-b for those patches (since
you are submitting them; unless you plan to let Akashi-san submit them
in the future).

Thanks.
