Merge branch 'for-4.16-fixes' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tj/percpu
Pull percpu fixes from Tejun Heo:
"Late percpu pull request for v4.16-rc6.
- percpu allocator pool replenishing no longer triggers OOM or
warning messages.
Also, the alloc interface now understands __GFP_NORETRY and
__GFP_NOWARN. This is to allow avoiding OOMs from userland
triggered actions like bpf map creation.
Also added cond_resched() in alloc loop.
- perpcu allocation now can be interrupted by kill sigs to avoid
deadlocking OOM killer.
- Added Dennis Zhou as a co-maintainer.
He has rewritten the area map allocator, understands most of the
code base and has been responsive for all bug reports"
