Pull LED subsystem updates from Jacek Anaszewski:
"Besides regular driver updates, we introduce a portion of LED core
improvements, that allow to avoid the need for using work queues in
the LED class drivers, that set brightness in a blocking way.Affected LED class drivers are being optimized accordingly.
- LED core improvements:
- use EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL consistently,
- add two new LED_BLINK_ flags,
- rename brightness_set_sync op to brightness_set_blocking,
- add led_set_brightness_nosleep{nopm} functions,
- use set_brightness_work for the blocking op,
- drivers shouldn't enforce SYNC/ASYNC brightness setting,
- turn off the LED and wait for completion on unregistering LED
class device,
- add managed version of led_trigger_register,
- add description of brightness setting API to the LED class doc.- Remove work queues from drivers: leds-tlc591xx, leds-88pm860x, leds-adp5520,
leds-bd2802, leds-blinkm, leds-lm3533, leds-lm3642, leds-pca9532,
leds-lp3944, leds-lp55xx, leds-lp8788, leds-lp8860, leds-pca955x,

leds-max77693, leds-aat1290, leds-ktd2692, leds-gpio, leds-pwm,
leds-lm355x, leds-ns2.- Replace brightness_set op with a new brightness_set_blocking op to
make the drivers compatible with led triggers: leds-ipaq-micro,
leds-powernv.- Add missing of_node_put: leds-ktd2692, leds-aat1290, leds-max77693.
- Make the driver explicitly non-modular: ledtrig-cpu,
ledtrig-ide-disk, leds-syscon.- Improvements to leds-bcm6328:
- reuse bcm6328_led_set() instead of copying its functionality,
- swap LED ON and OFF definitions,
- improve blink support,
- simplify duplicated unlock in bcm6328_blink_set,
- add little endian support,
- remove unneded lock when checking initial LED status,
- add HAS_IOMEM dependency,
- code cleaning.- Improvements to leds-bcm6358:
- use bcm6358_led_set() in order to get rid of the lock,
- merge bcm6358_led_mode and bcm6358_led_set,
- add little endian support,
- remove unneded lock when checking initial LED status,
- add HAS_IOMEM dependency,
- remove unneeded busy status check.- Call led_pwm_set() in leds-pwm to enforce default LED_OFF.
- Fix duration to be msec instead of jiffies: ledtrig-transient.
- Removing NULL check: leds-powernv.
- Use platform_register/unregister_drivers(): leds-sunfire.
- Fix module license specification: ledtrig-oneshot.
- Fix driver description and make license match the header: leds-pwm.
- Remove checking for state < 1 in flash_strobe_store():
led-class-flash.- Use led_set_brightness_sync for torch brightness:

Pull regmap updates from Mark Brown:
"There's no real overall theme to the regmap changes for this release,
it's a collection of individual features. The main bits are:- Support for 64 bit registers, mainly for MMIO use, from Xiubo Li.
- Support for trigger type configuration for regmap-irq from Laxman
Dewangan.- Use native physical I/O for MMIO register maps to avoid confusion
with the conversions that readl() and writel() do to little endian

people were doing), code from Simon Arlott.- Use a binary search rather than iteraton to improve the runtime

Pull pin control updates from Linus Walleij:
"This is the bulk of pin control patches for the v4.5 series.Notably I have a patch to driver core from Stephen Boyd in the pull
request, this has been ACKed by Greg so it should be OK. The internal
API needed some tweaking to allow modular Qualcomm pin controllers.There is a bit of development history in here but it should all add up
nicely and has boiled in linux-next. For example I merged in v4.4-rc5
to get rid of some nasty merge conflicts.Summary:
- New drivers:
- PXA2xx pin controller support
- Broadcom NSP pin controller support- New subdrivers:
- Samsung EXYNOS5410 support
- Qualcomm MSM8996 support
- Qualcomm PM8994 support
- Qualcomm PM8994 MPP support
- Allwinner sunxi H3 support
- Allwinner sunxi A80 support
- Rockchip RK3228 support- Rename the Cygnus pinctrl driver to "iproc" as it is more generic
than was originally thought.- A bunch of Lantiq/Xway updates especially from the OpenWRT people.
- Several refactorings for the Super-H SH PFC pin controllers.
Adding SCIF_CLK support.- Several fixes to the Atlas 7 driver.
- Various fixes all over the place"

Generate perf.data files from 'perf stat', to tap into the
scripting capabilities perf has instead of defining a 'perf stat'
specific scripting support to calculate event ratios, etc.Simple example:
$ perf stat record -e cycles usleep 1
Performance counter stats for 'usleep 1':
1,134,996 cycles
0.000670644 seconds time elapsed
$ perf stat report
Performance counter stats for '/home/acme/bin/perf stat record -e cycles usleep 1':

[acme@ssdandy linux]$An effort was made to make perf.data files generated like this to
not generate cryptic messages when processed by older tools.The 'perf script' bits need rebasing, will go up later.
- Make command line options always available, even when they depend
on some feature being enabled, warning the user about use of such
options (Wang Nan)- Support hw breakpoint events (mem:0xAddress) in the default output
mode in 'perf script' (Wang Nan)- Fixes and improvements for supporting annotating ARM binaries,
support ARM call and jump instructions, more work needed to have
arch specific stuff separated into tools/perf/arch/*/annotate/
(Russell King)- Add initial 'perf config' command, for now just with a --list
command to the contents of the configuration file in use and a
basic man page describing its format, commands for doing edits and
detailed documentation are being reviewed and proof-read. (Taeung
Song)- Allows BPF scriptlets specify arguments to be fetched using DWARF
info, using a prologue generated at compile/build time (He Kuang,
Wang Nan)- Allow attaching BPF scriptlets to module symbols (Wang Nan)
- Allow attaching BPF scriptlets to userspace code using uprobe (Wang
Nan)- BPF programs now can specify 'perf probe' tunables via its section
name, separating key=val values using semicolons (Wang Nan)Testing some of these new BPF features:

New features:
- Allow using trace events fields as sort order keys, making 'perf evlist --trace_fields'
show those, and then the user can select a subset and use like:perf top -e sched:sched_switch -s prev_comm,next_comm
That works as well in 'perf report' when handling files containing
tracepoints.The default when just tracepoint events are found in a perf.data file is to
format it like ftrace, using the libtraceevent formatters, plugins, etc (Namhyung Kim)- Add support in 'perf script' to process 'perf stat record' generated files,
culminating in a python perf script that calculates CPI (Cycles per
Instruction) (Jiri Olsa)- Show random perf tool tips in the 'perf report' bottom line (Namhyung Kim)
- perf report now defaults to --group if the perf.data file has grouped events, try it with:
# perf record -e '{cycles,instructions}' -a sleep 1

This replaces all code in fs/compat_ioctl.c that translated
ioctl arguments into a in-kernel structure, then performed
do_ioctl under set_fs(KERNEL_DS), with code that allocates
data on the user stack and can call the VFS ioctl handler
under USER_DS.This is done as a hardening measure because the caller
does not know what kind of ioctl handler will be invoked,
only that no corresponding compat_ioctl handler exists and
what the ioctl command number is. The accidental
