         - MAINTAINER update for Cavium/Marvell ThunderX2
      
         - stm32 tweaks to pinmux for Joystick/Camera, and RAM allocation for
           CAN interfaces
      
         - i.MX fixes for voltage regulator GPIO mappings, fixes voltage
           scaling issues
      
         - More i.MX fixes for various issues on i.MX eval boards: interrupt
           storm due to u-boot leaving pins in new states, fixing power button
           config, a couple of compatible-string corrections.
      
         - Powerdown and Suspend/Resume fixes for Allwinner A83-based tablets

      Pull IIO fixes and staging driver from Greg KH:
       "Here is a mix of a number of IIO driver fixes for 5.4-rc7, and a whole
        new staging driver.
      
        The IIO fixes resolve some reported issues, all are tiny.
      
        The staging driver addition is the vboxsf filesystem, which is the
        VirtualBox guest shared folder code. Hans has been trying to get
        filesystem reviewers to review the code for many months now, and
        Christoph finally said to just merge it in staging now as it is
        stand-alone and the filesystem people can review it easier over time
        that way.
      
        I know it's late for this big of an addition, but it is stand-alone.
      
        The code has been in linux-next for a while, long enough to pick up a
        few tiny fixes for it already so people are looking at it.
      
        All of these have been in linux-next with no reported issues"

         - Prevent the evaluation of exception stacks before they are set up.
           This causes a crash in dumpstack because the stack walk termination
           gets screwed up.
      
         - Prevent a NULL pointer dereference in the rescource control file
           system.
      
         - Avoid bogus warnings about APIC id mismatch related to the LDR
           which can happen when the LDR is not in use and therefore not
           initialized. Only evaluate that when the APIC is in logical

         - VDSO data was updated conditional on the availability of a VDSO

      ixgbe: need_wakeup flag might not be set for Tx · 0843aa8f
      Magnus Karlsson authored
      The need_wakeup flag for Tx might not be set for AF_XDP sockets that
      are only used to send packets. This happens if there is at least one
      outstanding packet that has not been completed by the hardware and we
      get that corresponding completion (which will not generate an
      interrupt since interrupts are disabled in the napi poll loop) between
      the time we stopped processing the Tx completions and interrupts are
      enabled again. In this case, the need_wakeup flag will have been
      cleared at the end of the Tx completion processing as we believe we
      will get an interrupt from the outstanding completion at a later point
      in time. But if this completion interrupt occurs before interrupts
      are enable, we lose it and should at that point really have set the
      need_wakeup flag since there are no more outstanding completions that
      can generate an interrupt to continue the processing. When this
      happens, user space will see a Tx queue need_wakeup of 0 and skip
      issuing a syscall, which means will never get into the Tx processing
      again and we have a deadlock.
      
      This patch introduces a quick fix for this issue by just setting the
      need_wakeup flag for Tx to 1 all the time. I am working on a proper
      fix for this that will toggle the flag appropriately, but it is more
      challenging than I anticipated and I am afraid that this patch will
      not be completed before the merge window closes, therefore this easier
      fix for now. This fix has a negative performance impact in the range
      of 0% to 4%. Towards the higher end of the scale if you have driver
      and application on the same core and issue a lot of packets, and
      towards no negative impact if you use two cores, lower transmission
      speeds and/or a workload that also receives packets.

      igb/igc: use ktime accessors for skb->tstamp · 6acab13b
      Jacob Keller authored
      When implementing launch time support in the igb and igc drivers, the
      skb->tstamp value is assumed to be a s64, but it's declared as a ktime_t
      value.
      
      Although ktime_t is typedef'd to s64 it wasn't always, and the kernel
      provides accessors for ktime_t values.
      
      Use the ktime_to_timespec64 and ktime_set accessors instead of directly
      assuming that the variable is always an s64.
      
      This improves portability if the code is ever moved to another kernel
      version, or if the definition of ktime_t ever changes again in the
      future.

      iavf: initialize ITRN registers with correct values · 4eda4e00
      Nicholas Nunley authored
      Since commit 92418fb1 ("i40e/i40evf: Use usec value instead of reg
      value for ITR defines") the driver tracks the interrupt throttling
      intervals in single usec units, although the actual ITRN registers are
      programmed in 2 usec units. Most register programming flows in the driver
      correctly handle the conversion, although it is currently not applied when
      the registers are initialized to their default values. Most of the time
      this doesn't present a problem since the default values are usually
      immediately overwritten through the standard adaptive throttling mechanism,
      or updated manually by the user, but if adaptive throttling is disabled and
      the interval values are left alone then the incorrect value will persist.
      
      Since the intended default interval of 50 usecs (vs. 100 usecs as
      programmed) performs better for most traffic workloads, this can lead to
      performance regressions.
      
      This patch adds the correct conversion when writing the initial values to
      the ITRN registers.
