    Pull MIPS updates from Paul Burton:
     "Main MIPS changes:
    
       - boot_mem_map is removed, providing a nice cleanup made possible by
         the recent removal of bootmem.
    
       - Some fixes to atomics, in general providing compiler barriers for
         smp_mb__{before,after}_atomic plus fixes specific to Loongson CPUs
         or MIPS32 systems using cmpxchg64().
    
       - Conversion to the new generic VDSO infrastructure courtesy of
         Vincenzo Frascino.
    
       - Removal of undefined behavior in set_io_port_base(), fixing the
         behavior of some MIPS kernel configurations when built with recent
         clang versions.
    
       - Initial MIPS32 huge page support, functional on at least Ingenic
         SoCs.
    
       - pte_special() is now supported for some configurations, allowing
         among other things generic fast GUP to be used.
    
       - Miscellaneous fixes & cleanups.
    
      And platform specific changes:
    
       - Major improvements to Ingenic SoC support from P...
