Merge branch 'akpm' (patches from Andrew)
Merge fixes from Andrew Morton: "11 fixes" * emailed patches from Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org>: mm: silently skip readahead for DAX inodes dax: fix device-dax region base fs/seq_file: fix out-of-bounds read mm: memcontrol: avoid unused function warning mm: clarify COMPACTION Kconfig text treewide: replace config_enabled() with IS_ENABLED() (2nd round) printk: fix parsing of "brl=" option soft_dirty: fix soft_dirty during THP split sysctl: handle error writing UINT_MAX to u32 fields get_maintainer: quiet noisy implicit -f vcs_file_exists checking byteswap: don't use __builtin_bswap*() with sparse
