Allwinner DT changes for 4.4

DT patches for the 4.4 merge window, most notably:
  - Enable the OTG controller on more boards
  - Create new DTSI for the q8's design
  - Added RSB support to the A23 and A33 SoCs
  - New boards: Olimex A20 EVB, Yones bs1078v2

Plus the usual random patches enabling and / or enhancing a few things in
particular boards.

First set of IIO fixes for the 4.3 cycle.

* twl4030 - incorrect readings for some channels due to a failure to
  initialize a bias regulator or configure the lines for input rather than
  USB use.
* lis3lv02 - a missunderstanding of the way the interrupts worked on this
  chip lead to activation of the wrong interrupt.
* sca3000 - an old bug meant that memory corruption could occur in the
  hardware ring buffer readout function.
* mxs-lradc - wrong temp offset.

- dmc fixes from Animesh (not yet all) for deeper sleep states
- piles of prep patches from Ville to make mmio functions type-safe
- more fbc work from Paulo all over
- w/a shuffling from Arun Siluvery
- first part of atomic watermark updates from Matt and Ville (later parts had to
  be dropped again unfortunately)
- lots of patches to prepare bxt dsi support ( Shashank Sharma)
- userptr fixes from Chris
- audio rate interface between i915/snd_hda plus kerneldoc (Libin Yang)
- shrinker improvements and fixes (Chris Wilson)
- lots and lots of small patches all over

Power management and ACPI fixes for v4.3-rc5

 - Two fixes for cpufreq regressions, an acpi-cpufreq driver one
   introduced during the 4.2 cycle when we started to preserve
   cpufreq directories for offline CPUs and a general one
   introduced recently (Srinivas Pandruvada).

 - Two devfreq fixes, one for a double kfree() in an error code
   path and one for a confusing sysfs-related failure (Geliang Tang,
   Tobias Jakobi).

sound fixes for 4.3-rc5

We see various small fixes, but nothing looks too scary, all are
small gentle bug fixes:
- Most of changes are for ASoC codecs: Realtek, SGTL5000, TAS2552,
  TLV320, WM8962
- A couple of dwc and imx-ssi fixes
- Usual oneliner HD-audio quirks
- An old emux synth code fix

Qualcomm ARM Based defconfig Updates for v4.4

* Enable QCOM SMD/RPM in multi_v7_defconfig
* Enable QCOM SMD/RPM in qcom_defconfig

ASoC: Fixes for v4.3

Quite a few fixes here but they're all very small and driver specific,
none of them really stand out if you aren't using the relevant hardware
but they're all useful if you do happen to have an affected device.

regulator: Fixes for v4.3

Two fixes here, one device specific fix for axp20x and a core fix for
cases where one regulator is supplying another which broke probe
deferral, substituting in a dummy regulator too aggressively.

This is the 3.12.49 stable release

For the current cycle, we have the following right now:
 * many internal fixes, API improvements, cleanups, etc.
 * full AP client state tracking in cfg80211/mac80211 from Ayala
 * VHT support (in mac80211) for mesh
 * some A-MSDU in A-MPDU support from Emmanuel
 * show current TX power to userspace (from Rafał)
 * support for netlink dump in vendor commands (myself)

Linux 4.3-rc4

Allwinner fixes for 4.3

Two patches, one that fixes one of the DT build, and the other raising the
voltage of the lowest OPP of the A20 to remain within the SoC operating
boundaries

This is the 4.2.3 stable release

This is the 4.1.10 stable release

Power management and ACPI material for v4.3-rc4

 - intel_idle driver fixup for the recently added Skylake chips
   support (Len Brown).

 - Operating Performance Points (OPP) library fix related to the
   recently added support for new DT bindings and a fix for a typo
   in a comment (Viresh Kumar, Stephen Boyd).

 - ACPI EC driver fix for a recently introduced memory leak in an
   error code path (Lv Zheng).

 - ACPI PCI IRQ management fix for the issue where an ISA IRQ is
   shared with a PCI device which requires it to be configured in a
   different way and may cause an interrupt storm to happen as a
   result with an extra ACPI SCI IRQ handling simplification on top
   of it (Jiang Liu).

 - Update of the PCI power management documentation that became
   outdated and started to actively confuse the readers to make
   it actually reflect the code (Rafael J Wysocki).

 - turbostat fixes including an IVB Xeon regression fix (related to
   the --debug command line option), Skylake adjustment for the TSC
   running at a frequency that doesn't match the base one exactly,
   and a Knights Landing quirk to account for the fact that it only
   updates APERF and MPERF every 1024 clock cycles plus bumping up
   the turbostat version number (Len Brown, Hubert Chrzaniuk).
