    Linus Torvalds authored
    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."
