extra pull request because I missed tegra.

This is the bulk of GPIO changes for the v4.12 kernel cycle:

Core changes

- Return NULL from gpiod_get_optional() when GPIOLIB is disabled.
  This was a much discussed change. It affects use cases where people
  write drivers that might or might not be using GPIO resources.
  I have decided that this is the lesser evil right now.

- Make gpiod_count() behave consistently across different hardware
  descriptions.

- Fix the syntax around open drain/open source to not infer active
  high/low semantics.

New drivers

- A new single-register fixed-direction framework driver for hardware
  that have lines controlled by a single register that just work in
  one direction (out or in), including IRQ support.

- Support the Fintek F71889A GPIO SuperIO controller.

- Support the National NI 169445 MMIO GPIO.

- Support for the X-Gene derivative of the DWC GPIO controller

- Support for the Rohm BD9571MWV-M PMIC GPIO controller.

- Refactor the Gemini GPIO driver to a generic Faraday FTGPIO driver
  and replace both the Gemini and the Moxa ART custom drivers with
  this driver.

Driver improvements

- A whole slew of drivers have their spinlocks chaned to raw spinlocks
  as they provide irqchips, and thus we are progressing on realtime
  compliance.

- Use devm_irq_alloc_descs() in a slew of drivers, getting managed
  resources.

- Support for the embedded PWM controller inside the MVEBU driver.

- Debounce, open source and open drain support for the Aspeed driver.

- Misc smaller fixes like spelling and syntax and whatnot.

This is the 4.10.14 stable release

This is the 4.9.26 stable release

regulator: Updates for v4.12

Quite a lot going on with the regulator API for this release, much more
in the core than in the drivers for a change:

 - Fixes for voltage change propagation through dumb power switches.
 - A notification when regulators are enabled.
 - A new settling time property for regulators where the time taken to
   move to a new voltage is not related to the size of the change.
 - Some reorganization of the Arizona drivers in preparation for sharing
   the code with the next generation devices they've been integrated
   with.
 - Support for newer Freescale chips in the Anatop regulator.
 - A new driver for voltage controlled regulators to cope with some
   exciting ChromeOS hardware designs.
 - Support for Rohm BD9571MWV-M and TI TPS65132.

This is the 4.4.66 stable release

main drm pull request for 4.12 kernel

sound updates for 4.12-rc1

It was a relatively calm development cycle, and no scaring changes are
seen in both core and driver sides.  Here are some highlights:

ASoC:
- A new API for hooking up jacks more generically and easily
- Card longname is set based on DMI for a unique UCM profile
- Lots of Intel driver fixes: Atom, Broxton, Skylake and newer chips
- New drivers for Cirrus CS35L35, DIO DIO2125, Everest ES7132,
  HiSilicon hi6210, Maxim MAX98927, MT2701 systems with WM8960, Nuvoton
  NAU8824, Odroid systems, ST STM32 SAI controllers and x86 systems with
  DA7213

HD-audio:
- Many new quirks to support headset for various devices (mostly ASUS
  ones) as usual
- Support for dual codecs on some Gigabyte mobos and Lenovo laptop
- Improvement on PCM position reporting for Skylake and newer

FireWire:
- New drivers for MOTU and RME Fireface series
- Updates for Digidesign Digi00x and TASCAM series
- Support for tracepoints

Others:
- USB-audio: improved support for quirk_alias option
- Cleanups, constification allover the places

Somehow not much these 2 weeks ...

- (hopefully) stability fixes for byt/bsw gt wake (Chris)
- tighten up requests (especially restarts) checks and debug tracking
  (Chris)
- unify context handling more for gen5+ (Chris+Joonas)
- oddball bugfixes as usual

ASoC: Updates for v4.12

A quiet release for the core, but lots of new drivers this time around:

 - A new, generalized, API for hooking up jacks which makes it easier to
   write generic machine drivers for simple cases.
 - Continuing fixes for issues with the x86 CPU drivers.
 - New drivers for Cirrus CS35L35, DIO DIO2125, Everest ES7132,
   HiSilicon hi6210, Maxim MAX98927, MT2701 systems with WM8960, Nuvoton
   NAU8824, Odroid systems, ST STM32 SAI controllers and x86 systems with
   DA7213

Linux 4.11

This is the 4.4.65 stable release

This is the 3.18.51 stable release

Another set of patches for -next:
 * API support for concurrent scheduled scan requests
 * API changes for roaming reporting
 * BSS max idle support in mac80211
 * API changes for TX status reporting in mac80211
 * API changes for RX rate reporting in mac80211
 * rewrite monitor logic to prepare for BPF filters
 * bugfix for rare devices without 2.4 GHz support
 * a bugfix for recent DFS changes
 * some further cleanups

The API changes are actually at a nice time, since it's
typically quiet just before the merge window, and trees
can be synchronized easily during it.

drm/i915 and gvt fixes for drm-next/v4.12

This is the 4.10.13 stable release

This is the 4.9.25 stable release

This is the 4.4.64 stable release

sound fixes for 4.11

Since we got a bonus week, let me try to screw a few pending fixes.

A slightly large fix is the locking fix in ASoC STI driver, but it's
pretty board-specific, and the risk is fairly low.

All the rest are small / trivial fixes, mostly marked as stable, for
ALSA sequencer core, ASoC topology, ASoC Intel bytcr and Firewire
drivers.

ASoC: Fixes for v4.11

A few last minute fixes for v4.11, the STI fix is relatively large but
driver specific and has been cooking in -next for a little while now:

 - A fix from Takashi for some suspend/resume related crashes in the
   Intel drivers.
 - A fix from Mousumi Jana for issues with incorrectly created
   enumeration controls generated from topology files which could cause
   problems for userspace.
 - Fixes from Arnaud Pouliquen for some crashes due to races with the
   interrupt handler in the STI driver.
