Pull main powerpc updates from Ben Herrenschmidt:
 "This time around, the powerpc merges are going to be a little bit more
  complicated than usual.

  This is the main pull request with most of the work for this merge
  window.  I will describe it a bit more further down.

  There is some additional cpuidle driver work, however I haven't
  included it in this tree as it depends on some work in tip/timer-core
  which Thomas accidentally forgot to put in a topic branch.  Since I
  didn't want to carry all of that tip timer stuff in powerpc -next, I
  setup a separate branch on top of Thomas tree with just that cpuidle
  driver in it, and Stephen has been carrying that in next separately
  for a while now.  I'll send a separate pull request for it.

  Additionally, two new pieces in this tree add users for a sysfs API
  that Tejun and Greg have been deprecating in drivers-core-next.
  Thankfully Greg reverted the patch that removes the old API so this
  merge can happen cleanly, but once merged, I will send a patch
  adjusting our new code to the new API so that Greg can send you the
  removal patch.

  Now as for the content of this branch, we have a lot of perf work for
  power8 new counters including support for our new "nest" counters
  (also called 24x7) under pHyp (not natively yet).

  We have new functionality when running under the OPAL firmware
  (non-virtualized or KVM host), such as access to the firmware error
  logs and service processor dumps, system parameters and sensors, along
  with a hwmon driver for the latter.

  There's also a bunch of bug fixes accross the board, some LE fixes,
  and a nice set of selftests for validating our various types of copy
  loops.

  On the Freescale side, we see mostly new chip/board revisions, some
  clock updates, better support for machine checks and debug exceptions,
  etc..."

Pull x86 old platform removal from Peter Anvin:
 "This patchset removes support for several completely obsolete
  platforms, where the maintainers either have completely vanished or
  acked the removal.  For some of them it is questionable if there even
  exists functional specimens of the hardware"

Pull compat time conversion changes from Peter Anvin:
 "Despite the branch name this is really neither an x86 nor an
  x32-specific patchset, although it the implementation of the
  discussions that followed the x32 security hole a few months ago.

  This removes get/put_compat_timespec/val() and replaces them with
  compat_get/put_timespec/val() which are savvy as to the current status
  of COMPAT_USE_64BIT_TIME.

  It removes several unused and/or incorrect/misleading functions (like
  compat_put_timeval_convert which doesn't in fact do any conversion)
  and also replaces several open-coded implementations what is now
  called compat_convert_timespec() with that function"

Pull x86 vdso changes from Peter Anvin:
 "This is the revamp of the 32-bit vdso and the associated cleanups.

  This adds timekeeping support to the 32-bit vdso that we already have
  in the 64-bit vdso.  Although 32-bit x86 is legacy, it is likely to
  remain in the embedded space for a very long time to come.

  This removes the traditional COMPAT_VDSO support; the configuration
  variable is reused for simply removing the 32-bit vdso, which will
  produce correct results but obviously suffer a performance penalty.
  Only one beta version of glibc was affected, but that version was
  unfortunately included in one OpenSUSE release.

  This is not the end of the vdso cleanups.  Stefani and Andy have
  agreed to continue work for the next kernel cycle; in fact Andy has
  already produced another set of cleanups that came too late for this
  cycle.

  An incidental, but arguably important, change is that this ensures
  that unused space in the VVAR page is properly zeroed.  It wasn't
  before, and would contain whatever garbage was left in memory by BIOS
  or the bootloader.  Since the VVAR page is accessible to user space
  this had the potential of information leaks"

Pull x86 boot changes from Peter Anvin:
 "This patchset is a set of cleanups aiming at librarize some of the
  common code from the boot environments.  We currently have three
  different "little environments" (boot, boot/compressed, and
  realmode/rm) in x86, and we are likely to soon get a fourth one
  (kexec/purgatory, which will have to be integrated in the kernel to
  support secure kexec).  This is primarily a cleanup in the
  anticipation of the latter.

  While Vivek implemented this, he ran into some bugs, in particular the
  memcmp implementation for when gcc punts from using the builtin would
  have a misnamed symbol, causing compilation errors if we were ever
  unlucky enough that gcc didn't want to inline the test"

Commit 2223f6f6 "x86: Clean up dumpstack_64.c code" changed
the irq_stack processing a little from what it was before.
The irq_stack_end variable needed to be cleared after its first
use. By setting irq_stack to the per cpu irq_stack and passing
that to analyze_stack(), and then clearing it after it is processed,
we can get back the original behavior.

Commit 2223f6f6 "x86: Clean up dumpstack_64.c code" moved the used
variable to a local within the loop, but the in_exception_stack()
depended on being non-volatile with the ability to change it.

By always re-initializing the "used" variable to zero, it would cause
the in_exception_stack() to return the same thing each time, and
cause the dump_stack loop to go into an infinite loop.

Pull sound updates from Takashi Iwai:
 "There have been lots of changes in ALSA core, HD-audio and ASoC, also
  most of PCI drivers touched by conversions of printks.  All these
  resulted in a high volume and wide ranged patch sets in this release.
  Many changes are fairly trivial, but also lots of nice cleanups and
  refactors.  There are a few new drivers, most notably, the Intel
  Haswell and Baytrail ASoC driver.

  Core changes:
   - A bit modernization; embed the device struct into snd_card struct,
     so that it may be referred from the beginning.  A new
     snd_card_new() function is introduced for that, and all drivers
     have been converted.

   - Simplification in the device management code in ALSA core; now
     managed by a simple priority list instead

   - Converted many kernel messages to use the standard dev_err() & co;
     this would be the pretty visible difference, especially for
     HD-audio.

  HD-audio:
   - Conexant codecs use the auto-parser as default now; the old static
     code still remains in case of regressions.  Some old quirks have
     been rewritten with the fixups for auto-parser.

   - C-Media codecs also use the auto-parser as default now, too.

   - A device struct is assigned to each HD-audio codec, and the
     formerly hwdep attributes are accessible over the codec sysfs, too.
     hwdep attributes still remain for compatibility.

   - Split the PCI-specific stuff for HD-audio controller into a
     separate module, ane make a helper module for the generic
     controller driver.  This is a preliminary change for supporting
     Tegra HDMI controller in near future, which slipped from 3.15
     merge.

   - Device-specific fixes: mute LED support for Lenovo Ideapad, mic LED
     fix for HP laptops, more ASUS subwoofer quirks, yet more Dell
     laptop headset quirks

   - Make the HD-audio codec response a bit more robust

   - A few improvements on Realtek ALC282 / 283 about the pop noises

   - A couple of Intel HDMI fixes

  ASoC:
   - Lots of cleanups for enumerations; refactored lots of error prone
     original codes to use more modern APIs

   - Elimination of the ASoC level wrappers for I2C and SPI moving us
     closer to converting to regmap completely and avoiding some
     randconfig hassle

   - Provide both manually and transparently locked DAPM APIs rather
     than a mix of the two fixing some concurrency issues

   - Start converting CODEC drivers to use separate bus interface
     drivers rather than having them all in one file helping avoid
     dependency issues

   - DPCM support for Intel Haswell and Bay Trail platforms, lots of
     fixes

   - Lots of work on improvements for simple-card, DaVinci and the
     Renesas rcar drivers.

   - New drivers for Analog Devices ADAU1977, TI PCM512x and parts of
     the CSR SiRF SoC, TLV320AIC31XXX, Armada 370 DB, Cirrus cs42xx8

   - Fixes for the simple-card DAI format DT mess

   - DT support for a couple more devices.

   - Use of the tdm_slot mapping in a few drivers

  Others:
   - Support of reset_resume callback for improved S4 in USB-audio
     driver; the device with boot quirks have been little tested, which
     we need to watch out in this development cycle

   - Add PM support for ICE1712 driver (finally!); it's still pretty
     partial support, only for M-Audio devices"

Pull ACPI and power management updates from Rafael Wysocki:
 "The majority of this material spent some time in linux-next, some of
  it even several weeks.  There are a few relatively fresh commits in
  it, but they are mostly fixes and simple cleanups.

  ACPI took the lead this time, both in terms of the number of commits
  and the number of modified lines of code, cpufreq follows and there
  are a few changes in the PM core and in cpuidle too.

  A new feature that already got some LWN.net's attention is the device
  PM QoS extension allowing latency tolerance requirements to be
  propagated from leaf devices to their ancestors with hardware
  interfaces for specifying latency tolerance.  That should help systems
  with hardware-driven power management to avoid going too far with it
  in cases when there are latency tolerance constraints.

  There also are some significant changes in the ACPI core related to
  the way in which hotplug notifications are handled.  They affect PCI
  hotplug (ACPIPHP) and the ACPI dock station code too.  The bottom line
  is that all those notification now go through the root notify handler
  and are propagated to the interested subsystems by means of callbacks
  instead of having to install a notify handler for each device object
  that we can potentially get hotplug notifications for.

  In addition to that ACPICA will now advertise "Windows 2013"
  compatibility for _OSI, because some systems out there don't work
  correctly if that is not done (some of them don't even boot).

  On the system suspend side of things, all of the device suspend and
  resume callbacks, except for ->prepare() and ->complete(), are now
  going to be executed asynchronously as that turns out to speed up
  system suspend and resume on some platforms quite significantly and we
  have a few more optimizations in that area.

  Apart from that, there are some new device IDs and fixes and cleanups
  all over.  In particular, the system suspend and resume handling by
  cpufreq should be improved and the cpuidle menu governor should be a
  bit more robust now.

  Specifics:

   - Device PM QoS support for latency tolerance constraints on systems
     with hardware interfaces allowing such constraints to be specified.
     That is necessary to prevent hardware-driven power management from
     becoming overly aggressive on some systems and to prevent power
     management features leading to excessive latencies from being used
     in some cases.

   - Consolidation of the handling of ACPI hotplug notifications for
     device objects.  This causes all device hotplug notifications to go
     through the root notify handler (that was executed for all of them
     anyway before) that propagates them to individual subsystems, if
     necessary, by executing callbacks provided by those subsystems
     (those callbacks are associated with struct acpi_device objects
     during device enumeration).  As a result, the code in question
     becomes both smaller in size and more straightforward and all of
     those changes should not affect users.

   - ACPICA update, including fixes related to the handling of _PRT in
     cases when it is broken and the addition of "Windows 2013" to the
     list of supported "features" for _OSI (which is necessary to
     support systems that work incorrectly or don't even boot without
     it).  Changes from Bob Moore and Lv Zheng.

   - Consolidation of ACPI _OST handling from Jiang Liu.

   - ACPI battery and AC fixes allowing unusual system configurations to
     be handled by that code from Alexander Mezin.

Pull irq code updates from Thomas Gleixner:
 "The irq department proudly presents:

   - Another tree wide sweep of irq infrastructure abuse.  Clear winner
     of the trainwreck engineering contest was:
         #include "../../../kernel/irq/settings.h"

   - Tree wide update of irq_set_affinity() callbacks which miss a cpu
     online check when picking a single cpu out of the affinity mask.

   - Tree wide consolidation of interrupt statistics.

   - Updates to the threaded interrupt infrastructure to allow explicit
     wakeup of the interrupt thread and a variant of synchronize_irq()
     which synchronizes only the hard interrupt handler.  Both are
     needed to replace the homebrewn thread handling in the mmc/sdhci
     code.

   - New irq chip callbacks to allow proper support for GPIO based irqs.
     The GPIO based interrupts need to request/release GPIO resources
     from request/free_irq.

   - A few new ARM interrupt chips.  No revolutionary new hardware, just
     differently wreckaged variations of the scheme.

   - Small improvments, cleanups and updates all over the place"

I was hoping that that trainwreck engineering contest was a April Fools'
joke.  But no.

Pull libata updates from Tejun Heo:
 "A lot of activities on libata side this time.

   - A lot of changes around ahci.  Various embedded platforms are
     implementing ahci controllers.  Some were built atop ahci_platform,
     others were doing their own things.  Hans made some structural
     changes to libahci and librarized ahci_platform so that ahci
     platform drivers can share more common code.  A couple platform
     drivers are added on top of that and several are added to replace
     older drivers which were doing their own things (older ones are
     scheduled to be removed).

   - Dan finishes the patchset to make libata PM operations
     asynchronous.  Combined with one patch being routed through scsi,
     this should speed resume measurably.

Pull workqueue changes from Tejun Heo:
 "PREPARE_[DELAYED_]WORK() were used to change the work function of work
  items without fully reinitializing it; however, this makes workqueue
  consider the work item as a different one from before and allows the
  work item to start executing before the previous instance is finished
  which can lead to extremely subtle issues which are painful to debug.

  The interface has never been popular.  This pull request contains
  patches to remove existing usages and kill the interface.  As one of
  the changes was routed during the last devel cycle and another
  depended on a pending change in nvme, for-3.15 contains a couple merge
  commits.
