This is the 3.18.61 stable release

sound fixes for 4.13-rc1

Small last-minute fixes for 4.13-rc1: a couple of PCM fixes for m68k,
a cleanup work for legacy ISA msnd driver, and a few HD-audio new IDs
and quirks.

Small patch to add a clk_bulk_prepare_enable() and
clk_bulk_disable_unprepare() API to the newly introduced
clk bulk APIs.

i915, amd and some core fixes + mediatek color support

IOMMU Updates for Linux v4.13

This update comes with:

	* Support for lockless operation in the ARM io-pgtable code.
	  This is an important step to solve the scalability problems in
	  the common dma-iommu code for ARM

	* Some Errata workarounds for ARM SMMU implemenations

	* Rewrite of the deferred IO/TLB flush code in the AMD IOMMU
	  driver. The code suffered from very high flush rates, with the
	  new implementation the flush rate is down to ~1% of what it
	  was before

	* Support for amd_iommu=off when booting with kexec. Problem
	  here was that the IOMMU driver bailed out early without
	  disabling the iommu hardware, if it was enabled in the old
	  kernel

	* The Rockchip IOMMU driver is now available on ARM64

	* Align the return value of the iommu_ops->device_group
	  call-backs to not miss error values

	* Preempt-disable optimizations in the Intel VT-d and common
	  IOVA code to help Linux-RT

	* Various other small cleanups and fixes

main drm pull for v4.13

netlink validation fixes for nl80211

This is the bulk of GPIO changes for the v4.13 series:

Core:
- Export add/remove for lookup tables so that modules can export GPIO
  descriptor tables.
- Handle GPIO sleep states: it is now possible to flag that a GPIO line
  may loose its state during suspend/resume of the system to save
  power. This is used in the Wolfson Micro Arizona driver.
- ACPI-based GPIO was tightened up a lot around the edges.
- Use bitmap_fill() to speed up a loop.

New drivers:
- Exar XRA1403 SPI-based GPIO.
- MVEBU driver now supports Armada 7K and 8K.
- LP87565 PMIC GPIO.
- Renesas R-CAR R8A7743 (RZ/G1M).
- The new IOT2040 8250 serial/GPIO also comes in through this
  changeset.

Substantial driver changes:
- Seriously fix the Exar 8250 GPIO portions to work.
- The MCP23S08 was moved out to a pin control driver.
- Convert MEVEBU to use regmap for register access.
- Drop Vulcan support from the Broadcom driver.
- Serious cleanup and improvement of the mockup driver, giving us a
  better test coverage.

Misc:
- Lots of janitorial clean up.
- A bunch of documentation fixes.

DeviceTree for 4.13:

- vsprintf format specifier %pOF for device_node's. This will enable us
  to stop storing the full node names. Conversion of users will happen
  next cycle.

- Update documentation to point to DT specification instead of ePAPR.

- Split out graph and property functions to a separate file.

- New of-graph functions for ALSA

- Add vendor prefixes for RISC-V, Linksys, iWave Systems, Roofull,
  Itead, and BananaPi.

- Improve dtx_diff utility filename printing.

media updates for v4.13-rc1

This is the 3.18.60 stable release

sound updates for 4.13-rc1

This development cycle resulted in a fair amount of changes in both
core and driver sides.  The most significant change in ALSA core is
about PCM.  Also the support of of-graph card and the new DAPM widget
for DSP are noteworthy changes in ASoC core.  And there're lots of
small changes splat over the tree, as you can see in diffstat.

Below are a few highlights:

ALSA core:
- Removal of set_fs() hackery from PCM core stuff, and the code
  reorganization / optimization thereafter
- Improved support of PCM ack ops, and a new ABI for improved
  control/status mmap handling
- Lots of constifications in various codes

ASoC core:
- The support of of-graph card, which may work as a better generic
  device for a replacement of simple-card
- New widget types intended mainly for use with DSPs

ASoC drivers:
- New drivers for Allwinner V3s SoCs
- Ensonic ES8316 codec support
- More Intel SKL and KBL works
- More device support for Intel SST Atom (mostly for cheap tablets and
  2-in-1 devices)
- Support for Rockchip PDM controllers
- Support for STM32 I2S and S/PDIF controllers
- Support for ZTE AUD96P22 codecs

HD-audio:
- Support of new Realtek codecs (ALC215/ALC285/ALC289), more quirks
  for HP and Dell machines
- A few more fixes for i915 component binding

Note that of-graph change may bring the conflicts with a later pull
request of devicetree, as currently found in linux-next.
