Merge branch 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/ebiederm/user-namespace
Pull SIGCHLD fix from Eric Biederman: "Christof Meerwald reported that do_notify_parent has not been successfully populating si_pid and si_uid for multi-threaded processes. This is the one-liner fix. Strictly speaking a one-liner plus comment" * 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/ebiederm/user-namespace: signal: Avoid corrupting si_pid and si_uid in do_notify_parent
