linux-next: manual merge of the tip tree with the tile tree

Hi all,

Today's linux-next merge of the tip tree got a conflict in
arch/x86/Kconfig between commit ca3a3d347e23 ("ipc: provide generic
compat versions of IPC syscalls") from the tile tree and commits
5fd92e65a68b ("x32: Allow x32 to be configured") and 0bf6276392e9 ("x32:
Warn and disable rather than error if binutils too old") from the tip
tree.

Just context changes. I fixed it up (see below) and can carry the fix as
necessary.
