media fixes for v4.10-rc8

wireless-drivers fixes for 4.10

Only one important fix for rtlwifi which fixes a regression introduced
in 4.9 and which caused problems for many users.

Power management fixes for v4.10-rc8

 - Add an intel_pstate driver quirk to work around a firmware setting
   that leads to frequency scaling issues on desktop Intel Kaby Lake
   processors in some configurations if the hardware-managed P-states
   (HWP) feature is in use (Srinivas Pandruvada).

 - Fix up the recently added brcmstb-avs cpufreq driver: fix a bug
   related to system suspend and change the sysfs interface to match
   the user space expectations (Markus Mayer).

 - Modify the runtime PM framework to avoid false-positive warnings
   from the might_sleep_if() assertions in it (Rafael Wysocki).

Allwinner DT changes for 4.11, part 2

Support for the audio codec and Mali GPU for the A33

First feature pile for 4.12:

- use atomic_commit for legay page flips, once more! (from Maarten)
- piles and piles of fixes and patches to make corner-cases more
  robust in atomic code, execlist, gem, from lots of different folks
- remove pre-production w/a for bxt (Chris)
- taint the kernel on pre-production hw that's no longer supported
  (Chris)
- consistently treat stolen as dma_addr_t (Chris)
- vgpu forcewake cleanup (Weinan Li)
- glk color manager support (Ander)
- explicit fencing support in execbuf, for Android! (Chris)
- ... plus the remaining prep-work for the same (also Chris)
- dp compliance prep (Manasi and Jani)
- cleanup skl/kbl code under IS_GEN9_BC (for "big core"), from Rodrigo

A few simple fixes:
 * fix FILS AEAD cipher usage to use the correct AAD vectors
   and to use synchronous algorithms
 * fix using mesh HT operation data from userspace
 * fix adding mesh vendor elements to beacons & plink frames

regulator: Fixes for v4.10

Three changes here, two run of the mill driver specific fixes and a
change from Mark Rutland which reverts some new device specific ACPI
binding code which was added during the merge window as there are
concerns about this sending the wrong signal about usage of regulators
in ACPI systems.

intel vma fixes, amd and nouveau fixes.

Third set of new device support, features and cleanups for IIO in the 4.11 cycle

This also involves a merge of the ib-mid-iio-pwm-4.11 branch from mfd to
bring in support for the stm32 timer triggers needed for the buffered
features in the stm32 adc driver.

New device support:
* Amligic Meson SAR ADC
  - new driver and bindings
* cros_ec barometer
  - new driver
* max5481 digital potentiometers
  - new driver for 5481, 5482, 5483 and 5484
* Renesas GyroADC - a very specific spi offload engine for ADCs
  - new driver and bindings.
* srf08 ultrasonic ranger
  - new driver, bindings and ABI docs,

New features
* Qualcomm PM8xxx ADC bindings.
  - due to a trivial build issues the driver will be following shortly.
* stm32 ADC
  - Triggered buffer mode
  - Allow use of stm32 timer triggers
  - Add trigger polarity control
  - Optional DMA support with bindings update
* stx104
  - add support for gpio names
  - support set_multiple callback
* tmp007
  - optional interrupt support

Cleanups
* ad7150
  - alignment fix.
* ad7816
  - octal rather than symbolic permissions.
* lsm6dsx
  - allow selection of data ready pin via device tree bindings.
* ssp_sensors
  - use devm_iio_device_register to handle unregister automatically.
* stx104
  - use devm functions in probe allowing removal or the remove function.
  - drop unneeded struct stx104_dev
* tmp007
  - fix the name attribute to be a meaninful description of the part.

This is the 3.12.70 stable release

wireless-drivers-next patches for 4.11

It's nice to see rt2x00 development has becoming active, for example
adding support for a new chip version. Also wcn36xx has been converted
to use the recently merged QCOM_SMD subsystem. Otherwise new features
and fixes it lots of drivers.

Major changes:

iwlwifi

* some more work in preparation for A000 family support
* add support for radiotap timestamps
* some work on our firmware debugging capabilities

wcn36xx

* convert to a proper QCOM_SMD driver (from the platform_driver interface)

ath10k

* VHT160 support
* dump Copy Engine registers during firmware crash
* search board file extension from SMBIOS

wil6210

* add disable_ap_sme module parameter

rt2x00

* support RT3352 with external PA
* support for RT3352 with 20MHz crystal
* add support for RT5350 WiSoC

brcmfmac

* add support for BCM43455 sdio device

rtl8xxxu

* add support for D-Link DWA-131 rev E1, TP-Link TL-WN822N v4 and others

This is the 4.9.7 stable release
