IOMMU Updates for Linux v3.10

The updates are mostly about the x86 IOMMUs this time. Exceptions are
the groundwork for the PAMU IOMMU from Freescale (for a PPC platform)
and an extension to the IOMMU group interface. On the x86 side this
includes a workaround for VT-d to disable interrupt remapping on broken
chipsets. On the AMD-Vi side the most important new feature is a kernel
command-line interface to override broken information in IVRS ACPI
tables and get interrupt remapping working this way. Besides that there
are small fixes all over the place.

vfio updates for v3.10

Changes include extension to support PCI AER notification to userspace, byte granularity of PCI config space and access to unarchitected PCI config space, better protection around IOMMU driver accesses, default file mode fix, and a few misc cleanups.

regulator: Updates for v3.10

The diffstat and changelog here is dominated by Lee Jones' heroic
efforts to sync the ab8500 driver that's been maintained out of tree
with mainline (plus Axel's cleanup work on the results) but there's a
few other things here:

- Axel Lin added regulator_map_voltage_ascend() optimising a common
  pattern for drivers using the core code.
- Milo Kim tought the regulator core to handle regulators sharing an
  enable GPIO, avoiding the need to do hacks to support such systems.
- Andrew Bresticker added code to handle missing supplies for regulators
  more sensibly for device tree systems, reducing the need for stubbing
  there.

plus the usual batch of driver specific updates and fixes.

drm/tegra: Changes for v3.10-rc1

The bulk of this pull-request is the host1x series that has been in the
works for a few months. The current implementation looks good and has
been tested by several independent parties. So far no issues have been
found. To be on the safe side, the new Tegra-specific DRM IOCTLs depend
on staging in order to give some amount of flexibility to change them
just in case. The plan is to remove that dependency once more userspace
exists to verify the adequacy of the IOCTLs.

Currently only the 2D engine is supported, but patches are in the works
to enable 3D support on top of this framework as well. Various bits of
open-source userspace exist to test the 2D and 3D support[0]. This is
still a bit immature but it allows to verify that the kernel interfaces
work properly.

To round things off there are two smaller cleanup patches, one of them
adding a new pixel format and the other removing a redundent Kconfig
dependency.
