This is the start of the stable review cycle for the 3.2.62 release.
There are 94 patches in this series, which will be posted as responses
to this one.  If anyone has any issues with these being applied, please
let me know.

Responses should be made by Wed Aug 06 17:00:00 UTC 2014.
Anything received after that time might be too late.

Build results:
	total: 111 pass: 105 fail: 6
Failed builds:
	microblaze:mmu_defconfig
	microblaze:nommu_defconfig
	mips:allmodconfig
	sparc64:allmodconfig
	xtensa:defconfig
	xtensa:allmodconfig

Qemu tests all passed.

This is a significant improvement over the previous versions, where we used
to see up to 10 build failures. The previously failing builds for unicore32
and score now pass, as well as alpha:allmodconfig.

Yes, I spent a little while digging out build fixes.

I tried to fix the mips allmodconfig build, but failed - it needs
d3ce88431892, but that depends on 20082595d341, bef9ae3d883c, and
further changes I couldn't identify. 

I was unable to reproduce the sparc64 allmodconfig build failure, which
is in samples/hidraw - it built for me without warnings or errors.
Could you give me a bit more detail about the test setup?

Nothing special, really - Ubuntu 14.4 (previously 13.10), with gcc 4.6.3
from kernel.org.

This seems to be related to patch cbf1ef6 (sparc: use asm-generic version of
types.h). After backporting it, the build passes for me. The backport is
attached in case you want to give it a try.

OK, I've queued this up with a comment on how it differs from the
upstream version.

Ben.

It is easier to change the specification to fit the program than vice versa.
