568e0c1119 powerpc: Remove obsolete prototype
The include/asm-powerpc/paca.h file has a prototype for a function that
does not exist any more; its name is setup_boot_paca.  This function was
removed in commit 4ba99b97da, so its
prototype should have been removed at that time too.

5a56db1c0f LIB: Replace inappropriate include of <linux/bug.h>
Replace an irrelevant include of bug.h with the more appropriate
includes of slab.h and module.h.

it's not as if the original inclusion is an error, it's simply not
related to the contents of that source file, while the other two are.

    (one example is Eißfeldt, which was found in a source file.
    Given that the author used an ß at all in a source file
    indicates that the real name has in fact a 'ß' and not an 'ss',
    which is commonly used as a substitute for 'ß' when limited to
    7bit.)

8256e47cdc Linux Kernel Markers
The marker activation functions sits in kernel/marker.c.  A hash table is used
to keep track of the registered probes and armed markers, so the markers
within a newly loaded module that should be active can be activated at module
load time.

marker_query has been removed. marker_get_first, marker_get_next and
marker_release should be used as iterators on the markers.
