Merge tag 'for-linus-2020-03-07' of gitolite.kernel.org:pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/brauner/linux
Pull thread fixes from Christian Brauner: "Here are a few hopefully uncontroversial fixes: - Use RCU_INIT_POINTER() when initializing rcu protected members in task_struct to fix sparse warnings. - Add pidfd_fdinfo_test binary to .gitignore file" * tag 'for-linus-2020-03-07' of gitolite.kernel.org:pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/brauner/linux: selftests: pidfd: Add pidfd_fdinfo_test in .gitignore exit: Fix Sparse errors and warnings fork: Use RCU_INIT_POINTER() instead of rcu_access_pointer()
