Pull "Broadcom drivers changes for 4.15" from Florian Fainelli: This pull requests contains Broadcom SoCs drivers updates for 4.15, please pull the following: - Markus adds support for the Broadcom STB DDR PHY frontend which supports dynamic firmware loading and offers the ability to respond with DRAM refresh rates. He also adds a proper documentation binding document for that peripheral - Brian adds support for S2/S3/S5 system suspend/resume modes on ARM-based SoCs which is not new but had been lingering for a long time. - Justin adds S2/S3 system suspend/resume modes on MIPS-based SoCs which is a bit new newer and builds on top of the ARM-based support. - Florian adds Device Tree binding documents for both ARM and MIPS based systems describing the necessary nodes for S2/S3/S5 on these SoCs. (This pull request somehow missed the 4.14 merge window and is now being sent again for 4.15 along with build fixes from Arnd). * tag 'arm-soc/for-4.15/drivers' of http://github.com/Broadcom/stblinux: soc bcm: brcmstb: Add support for S2/S3/S5 suspend states (MIPS) dt-bindings: Document MIPS Broadcom STB power management nodes soc: bcm: brcmstb: Add support for S2/S3/S5 suspend states (ARM) dt-bindings: ARM: brcmstb: Update Broadcom STB Power Management binding memory: brcmstb: Add driver for DPFE dt-bindings: Add bindings for Broadcom STB DRAM Sensors

In order to aid post-mortem debugging the Qualcomm platforms provide a "memory download mode", where the boot loader will provide an interface for custom tools to "download" the content of RAM to a host machine. The mode is triggered by writing a magic value somewhere in RAM, that is read in the boot code path after a warm-restart. Two mechanism for setting this magic value are supported in modern platforms; a direct SCM call to enable the mode or through a secure io write of a magic value. In order for a normal reboot not to trigger "download mode" the magic must be cleared during a clean reboot. Download mode has to be enabled by including qcom_scm.download_mode=1 on the command line.

Pull watchddog clean-up and fixes from Thomas Gleixner: "The watchdog (hard/softlockup detector) code is pretty much broken in its current state. The patch series addresses this by removing all duct tape and refactoring it into a workable state. The reasons why I ask for inclusion that late in the cycle are: 1) The code causes lockdep splats vs. hotplug locking which get reported over and over. Unfortunately there is no easy fix. 2) The risk of breakage is minimal because it's already broken 3) As 4.14 is a long term stable kernel, I prefer to have working watchdog code in that and the lockdep issues resolved. I wouldn't ask you to pull if 4.14 wouldn't be a LTS kernel or if the solution would be easy to backport. 4) The series was around before the merge window opened, but then got delayed due to the UP failure caused by the for_each_cpu() surprise which we discussed recently. Changes vs. V1: - Addressed your review points - Addressed the warning in the powerpc code which was discovered late - Changed two function names which made sense up to a certain point in the series. Now they match what they do in the end. - Fixed a 'unused variable' warning, which got not detected by the intel robot. I triggered it when trying all possible related config combinations manually.
