Merge branch 'parisc-4.6-3' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/deller/parisc-linux

Pull parisc fixes from Helge Deller:
 "Since commit 0de79858 ("parisc: Use generic extable search and
  sort routines") module loading is boken on parisc, because the parisc
  module loader wasn't prepared for the new R_PARISC_PCREL32 relocations.

  In addition, due to that breakage, Mikulas Patocka noticed that
  handling exceptions from modules probably never worked on parisc.  It
  was just masked by the fact that exceptions from modules don't happen
  during normal use.

  This patch series fixes those issues and survives the tests of the
  lib/test_user_copy kernel module test.  Some patches are tagged for
  stable"
