Merge branch 'kbuild/rc-fixes' into kbuild/kconfig

There is one kconfig fix in the rc-fixes branch that I forgot to submit
for 3.8, so let's add it to the kconfig branch for 3.9-rc1.

+	Control use of Explicit Congestion Notification (ECN) by TCP.
+	ECN is used only when both ends of the TCP connection indicate
+	support for it.  This feature is useful in avoiding losses due
+	to congestion by allowing supporting routers to signal
+	congestion before having to drop packets.
 	Possible values are:
-		0 disable ECN
-		1 ECN enabled
-		2 Only server-side ECN enabled. If the other end does
-		  not support ECN, behavior is like with ECN disabled.
+		0 Disable ECN.  Neither initiate nor accept ECN.
