ACPI and power management fixes for 3.13-rc8

- Recent commits modifying the lists of C-states in the intel_idle
  driver introduced bugs leading to crashes on some systems.  Two
  fixes from Jiang Liu.

- The ACPI AC driver should receive all types of notifications, but
  recent change made it ignore some of them.  Fix from Alexander Mezin.

- intel_pstate's validity checks for MSRs it depends on are not
  sufficient to catch the lack of support in nested KVM setups, so
  they are extended to cover that case.  From Dirk Brandewie.

- NEC LZ750/LS has a botched up _BIX method in its ACPI tables, so our
  ACPI battery driver needs a quirk for it.  From Lan Tianyu.

- The tpm_ppi driver sometimes leaks memory allocated by acpi_get_name().
  Fix from Jiang Liu.

This is the 3.12.7 stable release

This is the 3.10.26 stable release

omapdrm patches for 3.14

Third round of new drivers, features and cleanups for IIO in the 3.14 cycle.

One new driver a spot of new functionality and a cleanup.

* New driver for the Capella CM32181 ambient light sensor. This is the first
  driver directly from Kevin at Capella with more already in the pipeline.
* Support for configurable predividers on the mxs lradc
* Convert a field to a bitmap in mxs lradc instead of using an array of
  unsigned longs to store boolean values.

This is the 3.4.76 stable release

Second round of core additions for the Allwinner SoCs

Fixes to select missing configuration options, and update of the maintainer
file.

Second round of DT additions for 3.14

Mostly:
  - Addition of the missing PLLs and module clocks
  - Addition of the external clocks
  - Addition of the touchscreen controler
  - I2C nodes of the Cubietruck

Linux 3.13-rc7

ACPI and power management fixes and new device IDs for 3.13-rc7

- VGA switcheroo was broken for some users as a result of the ACPI-based
  PCI hotplug (ACPIPHP) changes in 3.12, because some previously ignored
  hotplug events started to be handled.  The fix causes them to be
  ignored again.

- There are two more issues related to cpufreq's suspend/resume handling
  changes from the 3.12 cycle addressed by Viresh Kumar's fixes.

- intel_pstate triggers a divide error in a timer function if the P-state
  information it needs is missing during initialization.  This leads to
  kernel panics on nested KVM clients and is fixed by failing the
  initialization cleanly in those cases.

- PCI initalization code changes during the 3.9 cycle uncovered BIOS
  issues related to ACPI wakeup notifications (some BIOSes send them
  for devices that aren't supposed to support ACPI wakeup).  Work around
  them by installing an ACPI wakeup notify handler for all PCI devices
  with ACPI support.

- The Calxeda cpuilde driver's probe function is tagged as __init, which
  is incorrect and causes a section mismatch to occur during build.  Fix
  from Andre Przywara removes the __init tag from there.

- During the 3.12 cycle ACPIPHP started to print warnings about missing
  _ADR for devices that legitimately don't have it.  Fix from Toshi Kani
  makes it only print the warnings where they make sense.

This is the 3.2.54 stable release

- Fix 2 regressions found on PPC
- Allow NULL ptr in unflatten_and_copy_device_tree
- Update my email address

Linux 3.13-rc6

Allwinner sunXi SoCs clock changes

This contains the clk driver parts of the "[PATCH v3 00/13] clk: sunxi:
add PLL5 and PLL6 support" series. It adds support for PLL4/5/6 and
mod0 clocks on most sunxi platforms. Additionally, it contains "[PATCH
1/4] clk: sunxi: Allwinner A20 output clock support" (v2) from Chen-Yu
Tsai, which adds support for output clocks present on A20.

Allwinner sunXi SoCs DT changes for clocks

This contains the DT parts of the "[PATCH v3 00/13] clk: sunxi: add PLL5
and PLL6 support" series. It adds DT nodes for PLL4/5/6 and mod0 clocks
on most sunxi platforms.

ACPI and power management fixes and new device IDs for 3.13-rc6

- Fix for a cpufreq regression causing stale sysfs files to be left
  behind during system resume if cpufreq_add_dev() fails for one or
  more CPUs from Viresh Kumar.

- Fix for a bug in cpufreq causing CONFIG_CPU_FREQ_DEFAULT_* to be
  ignored when the intel_pstate driver is used from Jason Baron.

- System suspend fix for a memory leak in pm_vt_switch_unregister()
  that forgot to release objects after removing them from
  pm_vt_switch_list.  From Masami Ichikawa.

- Intel Valley View device ID and energy unit encoding update for the
  (recently added) Intel RAPL (Running Average Power Limit) driver
  from Jacob Pan.

- Intel Bay Trail SoC GPIO and ACPI device IDs for the Low Power
  Subsystem (LPSS) ACPI driver from Paul Drews.

Pull request for PHY subsystem contains few fixes in PHY-CORE mostly
w.r.t PM and reference counting and also a new PHY driver used by SATA
in Marvell SoC.

Linux 3.13-rc5

2nd round of new IIO drivers, features and cleanups for the 3.14 cycle.

New drivers

* HID inclinometer driver.

* DHT11 humidity driver.  Note that previous humidity drivers have been in
  hwmon, but no one was ever entirely happy with that, and they should find
  a more comfortable home in IIO (their original placement in hwmon was my
  fault - oops).  As this is our first humidity driver, core support is also
  added.

New features

* Two of mxs-lradc channels are internally wired to a temperature sensor,
  make this explicit in the driver by providing the relevant temperature
  channel.

* Add support for blocking IO on buffers.

* Add a data_available call back to the interface between buffer implementations
  and the core.  This is much cleaner than the old, 'stufftoread' flag.
  Implemented in the kfifo buffer.

Cleanups

* Last user of the old event configuration interface is converted and the
  old interface dropped.  Nice to be rid of this thanks to Lars-Peter's hard
  work!

* Replace all remaining instances of the IIO_ST macro with explicit filling
  of the scan_type structure within struct iio_chan_spec.  This macro was a
  bad idea, that rapidly ceased to cover all elements of the structure.
  Miss reading of the macro arguements has led to a number of bugs so lets
  just get rid of it. The final removal patch is awaiting for some fixes
  to make their way into mainline.
  In a couple of drivers, no elements of scan_type were even being used so
  in those case, it has been dropped entirely.

* Drop a couple of of_match_ptr helper uses in drivers where devicetree is
  not optional and hence the structures being protected by this always exist.

* Fix up some cases where data was read from a device in a particular
  byte order, but he code placed it into a s16 or similar.  These were
  highlighted by Sparse.

* Use the new ATTRIBUTE_GROUPS macro to drop some boiler plate in the triggers
  core code.

* ad7746 and ad7280a - stop storing buffers on the stack, giving cleaner code
  and possibly avoiding issues with i2c bus drivers that assume they can dma
  directly into the buffer.  Note that this cannot currently happen as the the
  i2c_smbus_read_i2c_block_data function has a memcpy from the buffer actually
  passed to the bus driver.  I missed this element of the commit message
  and don't think it is major enough to rebase the iio tree.

* ad5791 and ad5504 stop storing buffers on the stack for an SPI driver.
  Unlike the i2c drivers, this is a real issue for SPI drivers which can dma
  directly into the buffer supplied.
