Merge remote branch 'origin' into secretlab/next-devicetree
Merging in current state of Linus' tree to deal with merge conflicts and build failures in vio.c after merge. Conflicts: drivers/i2c/busses/i2c-cpm.c drivers/i2c/busses/i2c-mpc.c drivers/net/gianfar.c Also fixed up one line in arch/powerpc/kernel/vio.c to use the correct node pointer.
