Pull ARM SoC platform updates from Arnd Bergmann:
"These are updates for platform specific code on 32-bit ARM machines,
essentially anything that can not (yet) be expressed using DT files.Noteworthy changes include:
- We get support for running in big-endian mode on two platforms:
sunxi (Allwinner) and s3c24xx (old Samsung).- The recently added Uniphier platform now uses standard PSCI methods
for SMP booting and we remove support for old bootloader versions
that did not support it yet.- In sunxi, we gain support for the "Nextthing GR8" SoC, which is a
close relative of the Allwinner A13 and R8 chips.- PXA completes its move over to the generic dmaengine framework and
removes its old private API- mach-bcm gains support for BCM47189/BCM53573, their first ARM SoC

Pull documentation updates from Jonathan Corbet:
"This is the documentation update pull for the 4.9 merge window.The Sphinx transition is still creating a fair amount of work. Here we
have a number of fixes and, importantly, a proper PDF output solution,
thanks to Jani Nikula, Mauro Carvalho Chehab and Markus Heiser.I've started a couple of new books: a driver API book (based on the
old device-drivers.tmpl) and a development tools book. Both are meant
to show how we can integrate together our existing documentation into
a more coherent and accessible whole. It involves moving some stuff
around and formatting changes, but, I think, the results are worth it.
The good news is that most of our existing Documentation/*.txt files
are *almost* in RST format already; the amount of messing around
required is minimal.And, of course, there's the usual set of updates, typo fixes, and

XP can provide events from two sources: watchpoints, observing traffic
on device ports and PMU looking at internal buses.Unfortunately the sysfs definition of the PMU events was requiring
port number (instead of bus number) and direction (the buses are
unidirectional), as these fields were shared with the watchpoint event.Although it does not introduce a major problem (port can be used as
bus alias and direction is simply ignored for XP PMU events), it's
better to fix it now, before external tools start depending on this
behaviour.Signed-off-by: Pawel Moll

I'm still getting confused regarding which core specifically
is used in which SoC, so I've added some more detail to the
Marvell README file. I got most of this from random sources
on the internet, so it's possible that some of the information
is wrong, but most of it should be pretty obvious.There are a few remaining points I could not find out:
* The CPU core in Orion 88F6183
* The difference (if any) between PJ4B-MP and PJ4C
* The naming of Feroceon/Jolteon/Flareon/Sheeva/Mohawk/PJ1/PJ4
is still confusing, as they tend to overlap.Signed-off-by: Arnd Bergmann

- explicitly indicate that there is no support in upstream for the
Armada SP
- indent the "Core: " description for the Armada XP to be clearly

Pull ARM SoC multiplatform code updates from Arnd Bergmann:
"This branch is the culmination of 5 years of effort to bring the ARMv6
and ARMv7 platforms together such that they can all be enabled and
boot the same kernel. It has been a tremendous amount of cleanup and
refactoring by a huge number of people, and creation of several new
(and major) subsystems to better abstract out all the platform details
in an appropriate manner.The bulk of this branch is a large patchset from Arnd that brings
several of the more minor and older platforms we have closer to
multiplatform support. Among these are MMP, S3C64xx, Orion5x, mv78xx0
and realview Much of this is moving around header files from old mach
directories, but there are also some cleanup patches of debug_ll
(lowlevel debug per-platform options) and other parts.Linus Walleij also has some patchs to clean up the older ARM Realview
platforms by finally introducing DT support, and Rob Herring has some
for ARM Versatile which is now DT-only. Both of these platforms are
now multiplatform.Finally, a couple of patches from Russell for Dove PMU, and a fix from
Valentin Rothberg for Exynos ADC, which were rebased on top of the
series to avoid conflicts"* tag 'armsoc-multiplatform' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/arm/arm-soc: (75 commits)

Currently kernel crash randomly when K2L EVM is booted without
clk_ignore_unused in the bootargs. This workaround is not needed
on other K2 devices such as K2HK and K2E and with this fix, we can
remove the workaround altogether. netcp driver on K2L uses linked
ram on OSR (On chip Static RAM) and requires the clock to this peripheral
enabled for proper functioning. This is the reason for the kernel crash.
So add the clock node to fix this issue.While at it, remove the workaround documentation as well.
With the fix applied, clk_summary dump shows the clock to OSR enabled.

Update the documentation about:
1. Usage of PMU_SPARE2 register.
Bootloaders on Exynos542x-based boards often use the register
PMU_SPARE2 (0x908) in the same way as on Exynos3250: as a indicator
the secondary CPU was booted on. The bootloader will set this value
to non-zero, after sucessfull power up of secondary CPU. In the same
time this booted CPU will stuck (spin) waiting for software reset.
2. Exynos542x entry address for secondary CPU boot up after system
suspend (with MCPM enabled and in non-secure mode).See arch/arm/mach-exynos/mcpm-exynos.c for source code.

The R8 is a new Allwinner SoC based on the A13. While both are very
similar, there's still a few differences. Introduce a new compatible to
deal with them.In order to have a consistent naming, instead of mentioning the Allwinner
A series as the machine name, switch to sun4i/sun5i like what is done for
the other families.Signed-off-by: Maxime Ripard

Pull v4.4 EFI updates from Matt Fleming:
- Make the EFI System Resource Table (ESRT) driver explicitly
non-modular by ripping out the module_* code since Kconfig doesn't
allow it to be built as a module anyway. (Paul Gortmaker)- Make the x86 efi=debug kernel parameter, which enables EFI debug
code and output, generic and usable by arm64. (Leif Lindholm)- Add support to the x86 EFI boot stub for 64-bit Graphics Output
Protocol frame buffer addresses. (Matt Fleming)- Detect when the UEFI v2.5 EFI_PROPERTIES_TABLE feature is enabled
in the firmware and set an efi.flags bit so the kernel knows when
it can apply more strict runtime mapping attributes - Ard Biesheuvel- Auto-load the efi-pstore module on EFI systems, just like we
currently do for the efivars module. (Ben Hutchings)- Add "efi_fake_mem" kernel parameter which allows the system's EFI
memory map to be updated with additional attributes for specific
memory ranges. This is useful for testing the kernel code that handles
the EFI_MEMORY_MORE_RELIABLE memmap bit even if your firmware
doesn't include support. (Taku Izumi)Note: there is a semantic conflict between the following two commits:
8a53554e12e9 ("x86/efi: Fix multiple GOP device support")
ae2ee627dc87 ("efifb: Add support for 64-bit frame buffer addresses")I fixed up the interaction in the merge commit, changing the type of
current_fb_base from u32 to u64.Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar

acc channels are available only if accumulator PDSP is loaded and
running in the SoC. As this requires firmware and user may not have
firmware in the file system, make the accumulator queue support
available in qmss driver optional. To use accumulator queus user needs
to add firmware to the file system and boot up kernel.Signed-off-by: Murali Karicheri

Currently firmware file name is included in the DTS. This is not scalable
as user has to change the DTS if they need upgrade to a new firmware.
Instead, add the firmware file name in the driver itself. As long as there
is no API change, new firmware upgrade is easy and require no driver
change. User is expected to copy the firmware image to the file system
and add a sym link to the new firmware for doing an upgrade. Driver add
a array of firmware file names to search for the available firmware blobs.
This scheme also prepare the driver for future changes to API if ever
happens. In such case it is assumed that driver needs to change to
accommodate the new firmware and new firmware file name will get added to
the array.Also update the DT document to remove the firmware attribute and add
description about firmware in the driver documentation.Signed-off-by: Murali Karicheri

Earlier the PBIAS regulator was optional, not so with recent
omap_hsmmc changes. To make things easier for people with
custom .config files, let's add minimal documentation for it
as suggested by Russell King .Signed-off-by: Tony Lindgren

With the stub to kernel interface being promoted to a proper interface
so that other agents than the stub can boot the kernel proper in EFI
mode, we can remove the linux,uefi-stub-kern-ver field, considering
that its original purpose was to prevent this from happening in the
first place.Signed-off-by: Ard Biesheuvel
