Pull libnvdimm subsystem from Dan Williams:
"The libnvdimm sub-system introduces, in addition to the
libnvdimm-core, 4 drivers / enabling modules:NFIT:
Instantiates an "nvdimm bus" with the core and registers memory
devices (NVDIMMs) enumerated by the ACPI 6.0 NFIT (NVDIMM Firmware
Interface table).After registering NVDIMMs the NFIT driver then registers "region"
devices. A libnvdimm-region defines an access mode and the
boundaries of persistent memory media. A region may span multiple
NVDIMMs that are interleaved by the hardware memory controller. In
turn, a libnvdimm-region can be carved into a "namespace" device and
bound to the PMEM or BLK driver which will attach a Linux block
device (disk) interface to the memory.PMEM:
Initially merged in v4.1 this driver for contiguous spans of
persistent memory address ranges is re-worked to drive
PMEM-namespaces emitted by the libnvdimm-core.In this update the PMEM driver, on x86, gains the ability to assert
that writes to persistent memory have been flushed all the way
through the caches and buffers in the platform to persistent media.
See memcpy_to_pmem() and wmb_pmem().BLK:
This new driver enables access to persistent memory media through
"Block Data Windows" as defined by the NFIT. The primary difference
of this driver to PMEM is that only a small window of persistent
memory is mapped into system address space at any given point in
time.Per-NVDIMM windows are reprogrammed at run time, per-I/O, to access
different portions of the media. BLK-mode, by definition, does not
support DAX.BTT:
This is a library, optionally consumed by either PMEM or BLK, that
converts a byte-accessible namespace into a disk with atomic sector
update semantics (prevents sector tearing on crash or power loss).The sinister aspect of sector tearing is that most applications do
not know they have a atomic sector dependency. At least today's
disk's rarely ever tear sectors and if they do one almost certainly
gets a CRC error on access. NVDIMMs will always tear and always
silently. Until an application is audited to be robust in the
presence of sector-tearing the usage of BTT is recommended.Thanks to: Ross Zwisler, Jeff Moyer, Vishal Verma, Christoph Hellwig,

A struct nvdimm_bus is the anchor device for registering nvdimm
resources and interfaces, for example, a character control device,
nvdimm devices, and I/O region devices. The ACPI NFIT (NVDIMM Firmware
Interface Table) is one possible platform description for such
non-volatile memory resources in a system. The nfit.ko driver attaches
to the "ACPI0012" device that indicates the presence of the NFIT and
parses the table to register a struct nvdimm_bus instance.Cc:

AMD GPU devices are dependent on AMD IOMMU controller functionality to allow
the GPU to access a process's virtual memory address space, without the need
for pinning the memory.This patch changes the order in the drivers makefile, so iommu/ subsystem is
linked before gpu/ subsystem. That way, if the gpu and iommu drivers are
compiled inside the kernel image (not as modules), the correct order of device
loading is still maintained (iommu module is loaded before gpu module).Signed-off-by: Oded Gabbay

Pull staging driver updates from Greg KH:
"Here's the big staging tree pull request for 3.19-rc1.We continued to delete more lines than were added, always a good
thing, but not at a huge rate this release, only about 70k lines
removed overall mostly from removing the horrid bcm driver.Lots of normal staging driver cleanups and fixes all over the place,
well over a thousand of them, the shortlog shows all the horrid
details.The "contentious" thing here is the movement of the Android binder
code out of staging into the "real" part of the kernel. This is code
that has been stable for a few years now and is working as-is in the
tens of millions of devices with no issues. Yes, the code is horrid,
and the userspace api leaves a lot to be desired, but it's not going
to change due to legacy issues that we have no control over. Because
so many devices and companies rely on this, and the code is stable,
might as well promote it out of staging.This was all discussed at the Linux Plumbers conference, and everyone
participating agreed that this was the best way forward.There is work happening to replace the binder code with something new
that is happening right now, but I don't expect to see the results of
that work for another year at the earliest. If that ever happens, and
Android switches over to it, I'll gladly remove this version.As for maintainers, I'll be glad to maintain this code, I've been
doing it for the past few years with no problems. I'll send a
MAINTAINERS entry for it before 3.19-final is out, still need to talk
to the Google developers about if they are willing to help with it or
not, last I checked they were, which was good.All of these patches have been in linux-next for a while with no

CoreSight components are compliant with the ARM CoreSight
architecture specification and can be connected in various
topologies to suit a particular SoC tracing needs. These trace
components can generally be classified as sources, links and
sinks. Trace data produced by one or more sources flows through
the intermediate links connecting the source to the currently
selected sink.The CoreSight framework provides an interface for the CoreSight trace
drivers to register themselves with. It's intended to build up a
topological view of the CoreSight components and configure the
correct serie of components on user input via sysfs.For eg., when enabling a source, the framework builds up a path
consisting of all the components connecting the source to the
currently selected sink(s) and enables all of them.The framework also supports switching between available sinks
and provides status information to user space applications
through the debugfs interface.Signed-off-by: Pratik Patel

If the kernel is built to support multi-ARM configuration with shmobile
support built in, then drivers/sh is not built. This contains the PM
runtime code in drivers/sh/pm_runtime.c, which implicitly enables the
module clocks for all devices, and thus is quite essential.
Without this, the state of clocks depends on implicit reset state, or on
the bootloader.If ARCH_SHMOBILE_MULTI then build the drivers/sh directory, but ensure that
bits that may conflict (drivers/sh/clk if the common clock framework is
enabled) or are not used (drivers/sh/intc), are not built.
Also, only enable the PM runtime code when actually running on a shmobile
SoCs that needs it.ARCH_SHMOBILE_MULTI was added a while ago by commit
efacfce5f8a523457e9419a25d52fe39db00b26a ("ARM: shmobile: Introduce
ARCH_SHMOBILE_MULTI"), but drivers/sh was compiled for both
ARCH_SHMOBILE_LEGACY and ARCH_SHMOBILE_MULTI until commit

The PHY framework provides a set of APIs for the PHY drivers to
create/destroy a PHY and APIs for the PHY users to obtain a reference to the
PHY with or without using phandle. For dt-boot, the PHY drivers should
also register *PHY provider* with the framework.PHY drivers should create the PHY by passing id and ops like init, exit,
power_on and power_off. This framework is also pm runtime enabled.The documentation for the generic PHY framework is added in
Documentation/phy.txt and the documentation for dt binding can be found at

Pull MFD update from Samuel Ortiz:
"For the 3.11 merge we only have one new MFD driver for the Kontron
PLD.But we also have:
- Support for the TPS659038 PMIC from the palmas driver.
- Intel's Coleto Creek and Avoton SoCs support from the lpc_ich
driver.
- RTL8411B support from the rtsx driver.
- More DT support for the Arizona, max8998, twl4030-power and the
ti_am335x_tsadc drivers.
- The SSBI driver move under MFD.
- A conversion to the devm_* API for most of the MFD drivers.
- The twl4030-power got split from twl-core into its own module.
- A major ti_am335x_adc cleanup, leading to a proper DT support.
- Our regular arizona and wm* updates and cleanups from the Wolfson
folks.
- A better error handling and initialization, and a regulator

There is no reason for ssbi to have its own top-level driver directory
when the only users of this interface are all MFD drivers. The only
mainline driver using it at the moment (PM8921) is marked broken and in
fact does not compile. I have verified that fixing the trivial build
breakage in pm8921 links in the new ssbi code just fine, but that
can be a separate patch.Signed-off-by: Arnd Bergmann

Pull ARM SoC driver changes from Olof Johansson:
"This is a rather large set of patches for device drivers that for one
reason or another the subsystem maintainer preferred to get merged
through the arm-soc tree. There are both new drivers as well as
existing drivers that are getting converted from platform-specific
code into standalone drivers using the appropriate subsystem specific
interfaces.In particular, we can now have pinctrl, clk, clksource and irqchip
drivers in one file per driver, without the need to call into platform
specific interface, or to get called from platform specific code, as
long as all information about the hardware is provided through a
device tree.Most of the drivers we touch this time are for clocksource. Since now
most of them are part of drivers/clocksource, I expect that we won't
have to touch these again from arm-soc and can let the clocksource
maintainers take care of these in the future.Another larger part of this series is specific to the exynos platform,
which is seeing some significant effort in upstreaming and
modernization of its device drivers this time around, which
unfortunately is also the cause for the churn and a lot of the merge
conflicts.There is one new subsystem that gets merged as part of this series:
the reset controller interface, which is a very simple interface for
taking devices on the SoC out of reset or back into reset. Patches to
use this interface on i.MX follow later in this merge window, and we
are going to have other platforms (at least tegra and sirf) get
converted in 3.11. This will let us get rid of platform specific
callbacks in a number of platform independent device drivers."* tag 'drivers-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/arm/arm-soc: (256 commits)

Although the SSBI sub is currently only used on MSM SoCs, it is still
a bus in its own right. Remove this msm_ prefix from the driver and

SSBI is the Qualcomm single-wire serial bus interface used to connect
the MSM devices to the PMIC and other devices.Since SSBI only supports a single slave, the driver gets the name of the
slave device passed in from the board file through the master device's
platform data.SSBI registers pretty early (postcore), so that the PMIC can come up
before the board init. This is useful if the board init requires the
use of gpios that are connected through the PMIC.Based on a patch by Dima Zavin that can be found at:
http://android.git.kernel.org/?p=kernel/msm.git;a=commitdiff;h=eb060bac4This patch adds PMIC Arbiter support for the MSM8660. The PMIC Arbiter
is a hardware wrapper around the SSBI 2.0 controller that is designed to
overcome concurrency issues and security limitations. A controller_type
field is added to the platform data to specify the type of the SSBI
controller (1.0, 2.0, or PMIC Arbiter).[davidb@codeaurora.org:

Getting use of virtio rings correct is tricky, and a recent patch saw
an implementation of in-kernel rings (as separate from userspace).This abstracts the business of dealing with the virtio ring layout
from the access (userspace or direct); to do this, we use function
pointers, which gcc inlines correctly.Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell
