Merge tag 'v3.13' into stable-3.14
Linux 3.13 Conflicts: security/selinux/hooks.c Trivial merge issue in selinux_inet_conn_request() likely due to me including patches that I sent to the stable folks in my next tree resulting in the patch hitting twice (I think). Thankfully it was an easy fix this time, but regardless, lesson learned, I will not do that again.
