Linux 4.1.18

Linux 3.18.27

This is the 3.12.54 stable release

- lots and lots of fbc work from Paulo
- max pixel clock checks from Mika Kahola
- prep work for nv12 offset handling from Ville
- piles of small fixes and refactorings all around

Linux 4.5-rc4

2nd round of new IIO device support, features and cleanups for the 4.6 cycle.

New Device Support
* Apex stx104 DAC
  - new driver for this PC104 board. Right now DAC support only.
* ADI ad5064
  - Add support for ad5625, ad5627, ad5645, ad5665, ad5667 DACs.
  - Add support for Linear Technology ltc2606, ltc2607, ltc2609, ltc2616,
    ltc2617, ltc2619, ltc2626, ltc2627 and ltc2629.
* ADI ad7192
  - add support for the ad7193
* Invensense mpu6050
  - substantial rework of driver to use regmap allowing SPI support extending
    the now split driver to cover the MPU6000.
* TI adc0832
  - new driver supporting ADC0831, ADC0832, ADC0834 and ADC0838 ADCs.
* TI ads1015
  - new driver, note that there is an existing hwmon driver. The long term
    intention is to probably remove the hwmon driver but for now we just have
    guards in place to ensure this driver is not built if that one is enabled.
* TI afe4403
  - new driver for this heart rate monitor / pulse oximeter front end chip.
* TI afe4404
  - new driver for this heart rate monitor / pulse oximeter front end chip.

Staging Graduations
* mxs-lradc
  - A combined general purpose and touch screen (input) device driver.
    Originally held in staging to allow reworking into and MFD but as
    that wasn't happening and isn't an absolute requirement we are moving
    it out of staging.

Driver new features
* ms5611
  - triggered buffer support
  - IIO_CHAN_INFO_SCALE to aid the triggered buffer support.

Driver cleanups / reworks / fixes
* ad5064
  - Use an enum for the register map layout to allow support of additional
    chips (precursor to the new support listed above).
  - Structural driver changes to allow support of the slightly different
    handling for the ltc parts above.
* ad5933
  - drop an exceptional & unnecessary for a function pointer.
* ad7606
  - Cleanup the repeated copies of pm ops.
  - consolidate the various channels specs via a sport of rearranging so only
    one version is needed.
* atlas ph sensor
  - add select IRQ_WORK
* hmc8543 (soon to move out of staging)
  - Comment style fixes
  - functionality of suspend and resume was swapped.
* spear-adc
  - use devm_clk_dev instead of managing the clk lifetime by hand.

Core
* Use new dmaengine_terminate_sync call to avoid a theoretical race.
* Fix docs for mlock in struct iio_dev as it is correctly taken in some
  drivers (docs used to say for core only).
* Add a helper function for calculating the scan index storage size within
  the core cutting out some cut and paste versions of the same code.

another sound fix for 4.5-rc4

This contains the last-minute fix for the double-free of usb-audio
MIDI device at probe failure.

This is the 3.2.77 stable release

Major changes:

wl12xx

* add device tree support for SPI

mwifiex

* add debugfs file to read chip information
* add MSIx support for newer pcie chipsets (8997 onwards)
* add schedule scan support
* add WoWLAN net-detect support
* firmware dump support for w8997 chipset

iwlwifi

* continue the work on multiple Rx queues
* add support for beacon storing used in low power states
* use the regular firmware image of WoWLAN
* fix 8000 devices for Big Endian machines
* more firmware debug hooks
* add support for P2P Client snoozing
* make the beacon filtering for AP mode configurable
* fix transmit queues overflow with LSO

libertas

* add support for setting power save via cfg80211

sound fixes for 4.5-rc4

In this rc, we've got more volume than previous rc, unsurprisingly;
the majority of updates in ASoC are about Intel drivers, and another
major changes are the continued plumbing of ALSA timer bugs revealed
by syzkaller fuzzer.  Hopefully both settle down now.

Other than that, HD-audio received a couple of code fixes as well as
the usual quirks, and various small fixes are found for FireWire
devices, ASoC codecs and drivers.

ASoC: Fixes for v4.5

A rather large batch of fixes here, almost all in the Intel driver.
The changes that got merged in this merge window for Skylake were rather
large and as well as issues that you'd expect in a large block of new
code there were some problems created for older processors which needed
fixing up.  Things are largely settling down now hopefully.

GPIO fixes for the v4.5 series:
- Probe errorpath fix for the Altera
- irqchip ofnode pointer added to the DaVinci driver
- controller instance number correction for DaVinci

phy: for 4.5-rc

*) Fix error handling code in phy core [phy_power_on()]
*) phy-twl4030-usb fixes for unloading the module
*) Restrict phy-hi6220-usb to HiSilicon arm64

Linux 4.5-rc3

Power management and ACPI fixes for v4.5-rc3

 - PM core fix to avoid false-positive warnings generated when
   the pm_domain field is cleared for a device that appears to
   be bound to a driver (Rafael Wysocki).

 - New MCH size workaround quirk for Intel Haswell-ULT (Josh Boyer).

 - Fix for an "unused function" compiler warning in the generic
   power domains framework (Ulf Hansson).

 - Fixup for the ACPI driver for Intel SoCs (acpi-lpss) to set
   the PM domain pointer of a device properly in one place that
   was overlooked by a recent PM core update (Andy Shevchenko).

 - Removal of a redundant function declaration in the ACPI CPPC
   core code (Timur Tabi).
