[GIT PULL] kmemcheck fixlets (for -tip)

Hi Ingo,

Here is the fixlets branch, including bitfields API. I think it would
be very nice if you could make this a *separate* branch in -tip, say
kmemcheck-fixlets or so, as it may touch any part of the kernel and
doesn't carry the acks of those maintainers.

With these patches, you should be able to include kmemcheck in auto-testing
again. At least it works for me :-)

You may also kill tip/kmemcheck-dma, which has been integrated already.


The following changes since commit 9f24b3ed3058f022dad24f8304b9ad53adf5aa71:
Vegard Nossum (1):
x86: use REP MOVS instruction for memcpy if kmemcheck is enabled
