In the interest not adding more delays to this patch, I fixed up
the commit log for the following error and applied it. I hope to
send this up for next rc.

ERROR: Please use git commit description style 'commit <12+ chars of 
sha1> ("<title line>")' - ie: 'commit 7549b3364201 ("selftests: vm: 
Build/Run 64bit tests only on 64bit arch")'
#93:

The fixed up now looks as follows:

Independent builds of the vm selftests is currently broken because
commit 7549b3364201 ("selftests: vm: Build/Run 64bit tests only on
64bit arch") overrides the value of ARCH with the machine name from
uname. This does not always match the architecture names used for
tasks like header installation.

Please make sure to run checkpatch with --strict to catch these
kinds of errors in the future.

thanks,
