sound fixes for 4.6-rc4

we've had a very calm development cycle, so far.  Here are the few
fixes for HD-audio and USB-audio, all of which are small and easy.

This has just the single fix from Dmitry Ivanov, adding the missing
netlink notifier family check to avoid the socket close DoS problem.

To synchronize with Kalle, here's just a big change that affects
all drivers - removing the duplicated enum ieee80211_band and
replacing it by enum nl80211_band. On top of that, just a small
documentation update.

wireless-drivers fixes for 4.6

b43

* fix memory leaks when removing the device

bcma

* fix building without OF_IRQ

rtlwifi

* fix gcc-6 indentation warning

iwlwifi

* lower the debug level of a benign print
* fix a memory leak

This is the 3.12.58 stable release

regulator: Pull the sysfs init after constraint setup

The sysfs attributes can indirectly use information from the constraints
so can trigger warnings with some systems.

This is the 3.14.66 stable release

This is the 4.4.7 stable release

This is the 4.5.1 stable release

- make modeset hw state checker atomic aware (Maarten)
- close races in gpu stuck detection/seqno reading (Chris)
- tons&tons of small improvements from Chris Wilson all over the gem code
- more dsi/bxt work from Ramalingam&Jani
- macro polish from Joonas
- guc fw loading fixes (Arun&Dave)
- vmap notifier (acked by Andrew) + i915 support by Chris Wilson
- create bottom half for execlist irq processing (Chris Wilson)
- vlv/chv pll cleanup (Ville)
- rework DP detection, especially sink detection (Shubhangi Shrivastava)
- make color manager support fully atomic (Maarten)
- avoid livelock on chv in execlist irq handler (Chris)

wireless-drivers patches for 4.7

Major changes:

iwlwifi

* support for Link Quality measurement
* more work 9000 devices and MSIx
* continuation of the Dynamic Queue Allocation work
* make the paging less memory hungry
* 9000 new Rx path
* removal of IWLWIFI_UAPSD Kconfig option

ath10k

Linux 4.6-rc3

GPIO fixes for the V4.6 series:

Core fixes:
- Defer GPIO device setup until after gpiolib is initialized.
  It turns out that a few very tightly integrated GPIO platform
  drivers initialize so early (befor core_initcall()) so that
  the gpiolib isn't even initialized itself. That limits what
  the library can do, and we cannot reference uninitialized
  fields until later. Defer some of the initialization until
  right after the gpiolib is initialized in these (rare) cases.
- As a consequence: do not use devm_* resources when allocating
  the states in the initial set-up of the gpiochip.

Driver fixes:
- In ACPI retrieveal: ignore GpioInt when looking for output
  GPIOs.
- Fix legacy builds on the PXA without a backing pin controller.
- Use correct datatype on pca953x register writes.

Power management and ACPI material for v4.6-rc3

 - intel_pstate fixes for two issues exposed by the recent switch
   over from using timers and for one issue introduced during the
   4.4 cycle plus new comments describing data structures used by
   the driver (Rafael Wysocki, Srinivas Pandruvada).

 - intel_idle fixes related to CPU offline/online (Richard Cochran).

 - intel_idle support (new CPU IDs and state definitions mostly) for
   Skylake-X and Kabylake processors (Len Brown).

 - PCC mailbox driver fix for an out-of-bounds memory access that
   may cause the kernel to panic() (Shanker Donthineni).

 - New (missing) CPU ID for one apparently overlooked Haswell model
   in the Intel RAPL power capping driver (Srinivas Pandruvada).

 - Fix for the PM core's wakeup IRQs framework to make it work after
   wakeup settings reconfiguration from sysfs (Grygorii Strashko).

 - Runtime PM documentation update to make it describe what needs
   to be done during device removal more precisely (Krzysztof
   Kozlowski).

 - Stale comment removal cleanup in the cpufreq-dt driver (Viresh
   Kumar).

 - turbostat utility fixes and support for Broxton, Skylake-X
   and Kabylake processors (Len Brown).

IOMMU Fixes for Linux v4.6-rc2 with:

 - Compile-time fixes (warnings and failures)

 - A bug in iommu core code which could cause the group->domain pointer
   to be falsly cleared

 - Fix in scatterlist handling of the ARM common DMA-API code

 - Stall detection fix for the Rockchip IOMMU driver

For the 4.6 cycle, we have a number of changes:
 * Bob's mesh mode rhashtable conversion, this includes
   the rhashtable API change for allocation flags
 * BSSID scan, connect() command reassoc support (Jouni)
 * fast (optimised data only) and support for RSS in mac80211 (myself)
 * various smaller changes

For the current RC series, we have the following fixes:
 * TDLS fixes from Arik and Ilan
 * rhashtable fixes from Ben and myself
 * documentation fixes from Luis
 * U-APSD fixes from Emmanuel
 * a TXQ fix from Felix
 * and a compiler warning suppression from Jeff
