IOMMU Fixes for Linux v4.8-rc3:

From Will Deacon:

	* Fix a couple of thinkos in the CMDQ error handling and
          short-descriptor page table code that have been there since
          day one

	* Disable stalling faults, since they may result in hardware
          deadlock

	* Fix an accidental BUG() when passing disable_bypass=1 on
          the cmdline

ASoC: Fixes for v4.8

A clutch of fixes for v4.8.  These are mainly driver specific, the most
notable ones being those for OMAP which fix a series of issues that
broke boot on some platforms there when deferred probe kicked in.
There's also one core fix for an issue when unbinding a card which for
some reason had managed to not manifest until recently.

This is the 3.16.37 stable release

This is the 3.2.82 stable release

Linux 3.18.40

Linux 4.1.31

GPIO fixes for v4.8:

This fixes a Kconfig issue with UM: when I made GPIOLIB
available to all archs, that included UM, but the OF part
of GPIOLIB requires HAS_IOMEM, so we add HAS_IOMEM as a
dependency to OF_GPIO.

This in turn exposed the fact that a few GPIO drivers were
implicitly assuming OF_GPIO as their dependency but instead
depended on OF alone (the typical problem being a pointer
inside gpio_chip not existing unless OF_GPIO is selected)
and then UM would fail to compile with these drivers
instead. Then I lost patience and made any GPIO driver
depending on just OF depend on OF_GPIO instead, that is
certainly what they meant and the only thing that makes
sense anyway. GPIO with just OF but !OF_GPIO does not make
sense.

Also a fix for the max730x driver data pointer, and a minor
comment fix for the GPIO tools.
