Hi Linus,

The following changes since commit 196adf2f3015eacac0567278ba538e3ffdd16d0e:

  arm64: Remove pgprot_dmacoherent() (2014-03-24 10:35:35 +0000)

  arm64: Fix DMA range invalidation for cache line unaligned buffers (2014-04-08 11:45:08 +0100)

A second pull request for this merging window, mainly with fixes and
docs clarification. As I haven't rebased my tree, you'll get a conflict
with latest mainline in arch/arm64/kernel/head.S. The fix-up is below.
Thanks.
