ACPI fix for final v4.11

 - Avoid a false-positive warning regarding a variable that may not
   be initialized that started to trigger after a previous general
   build fix (Arnd Bergmann).

wireless-drivers-next patches for 4.12

Quite a lot of patches for rtlwifi and iwlwifi this time, but changes
also for other active wireless drivers.

Major changes:

ath9k

* add support for Dell Wireless 1601 PCI device

* add debugfs file to manually override noise floor

ath10k

* bump up FW API to 6 for a new QCA6174 firmware branch

wil6210

* support 8 kB RX buffers

iwlwifi

* work to support A000 devices continues

* add support for FW API 30

* add Geographical and Dynamic Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) support

* support a few new PCI device IDs

rtlwifi

* work on adding Bluetooth coexistance support, not finished yet

This is the 4.10.12 stable release

This is the 4.9.24 stable release

This is the 4.4.63 stable release

drm-misc-next-fixes-2017-04-20

Core changes:
- Maintain sti via drm-misc (Vincent)
- Rename dma_buf_ops->kmap_* to avoid naming collision (Logan)

Driver changes:
- Fix UHD displays on stih407 (Vincent)
- Fix uninitialized var return in atmel-hlcdc (Dan)

Allwinner clock changes, take 2

A few minor bug and comment fixes, plus some fixes for the PRCM CCU driver
merged in the prior pull request

First slice of 4.13 features:

new uabi:
- extend error state dumping to include non-batch buffers requested by
  userspace (Chris), so that mesa gets more useful error state dumps
- reapply the link status patch, for handlig dp link failures
  (Manasi). This needs updated -modesetting to work correctly.
- Add new _WC cache domain, our assumption that wc can be subsumed by
  the existing cache domains didn't pan out (Chris)

feature work:
- first pile of conversion to atomic properties for connectors
  (Maarten)
- refactor dp link rate handling code and related areas (Jani)
- split engine info into class and runtime stuff (Oscar Mateo)
- more robust wait_for_register code (Chris, Michal Wajdeczko)
- fix rcu issues in the shrinker and simplify locking (Joonas)
- guc/huc for glk (Anusha)
- enable atomic modesetting for vlv/chv (Ville), plus final fixes for
  that

My last pull request has been a while, we now have:
 * connection quality monitoring with multiple thresholds
 * support for FILS shared key authentication offload
 * pre-CAC regulatory compliance - only ETSI allows this
 * sanity check for some rate confusion that hit ChromeOS
   (but nobody else uses it, evidently)
 * some documentation updates
 * lots of cleanups

A single fix, for the MU-MIMO monitor mode, that fixes
bad SKB accesses if the SKB was paged, which is the case
for the only driver supporting this - iwlwifi.

This is the 3.18.49 stable release

This is the 4.4.62 stable release

This is the 4.9.23 stable release

This is the 4.10.11 stable release

Linux 4.11-rc7

Fourth set of IIO new device support, features and cleanups for the 4.12 cycle

New device support
* max1117, 1118 and 1119
  - new ADC driver
* max9611
  - new ADC driver
* pm8xxx hk/xoadc
  - new driver with some shared features broken out from the SPMI vadc.
* sun4i-gpadc
  - A33 thermal sensor support (with associated rework)
* stm32-dac
  - new driver and bindings
* stm32 trigger
  - enable support of quadrature encoder device and counter modes

Features
* apds9960
  - use the runtime pm for normal suspend
* stm32-adc
  - add opition to sest resolution via devicetree
* xoadc
  - augment DT bindings to deal with some weird mux cases

Cleanups
* ad5933
  - protect direct mode using claim and release helpers
* ade7759
  - S_IRUGO and friends to octal in two goes
* adis16203
  - drop unnecessary brackets
* hid-sensor
  - fix unbalanced pm_runtieme_enable error when probing after remove
* lsm6dsx
  - use actual part numbers for device name when known
  - simplify data read pin parsing
* mpu3050
  - avoid double reporting errors

Fifth set of IIO fixes for the 4.11 cycle.

As these are rather late in the cycle, they may sneak over into 4.12.
There is a fix for a regression caused by another fix (hid sensors
hardware seems to vary a lot in how various corner cases are handled).

* ad7303
  - fix channel description. Numeric values were being passed as characters
  presumably leading to garbage from the userspace interface.
* as3935
  - the write data macro was wrong so fix it.
* bmp280
  - incorrect handling of negative values as being unsigned broke humidity
  calculation.
* hid-sensor
  - Restore the poll and hysteresis values after resume as some hardware
  doesn't do it.
* stm32-trigger
  - buglet in reading the sampling frequency

ACPI fixes for v4.11-rc7

 - Revert a recent ACPICA commit targeted at catching firmware bugs
   which promptly did that and caused functional problems to appear
   (Rafael Wysocki).

 - Fix a device enumeration problem introduced in the 4.8 time frame
   which caused the ACPI docking station driver to report incorrect
   status via sysfs among other things (Rafael Wysocki).

Power management fixes for v4.11-rc7

 - Allow CPUs to be put back online even if the cpufreq driver is
   unable to work with them (eg. due to missing information from
   platform firmware), which was the previous behavior expected by
   users, but changed in the 4.9 time frame (Chen Yu).

 - Fix a few minor issues in the turbostat utility, introduced mostly
   during the recent update of it (Len Brown, Doug Smythies).

 - Fix a cpupower utility bug causing it to report incorrect values
   for turbo frequencies in some cases (Ben Hutchings).

Allwinner clock fixes for 4.11

Two build errors fixes for the sunxi-ng drivers.

The two other patches fix random CPU crashes happening on the A33 since
CPUFreq has been enabled in 4.11.
