Power management and ACPI fixes for v4.5-rc3

 - PM core fix to avoid false-positive warnings generated when
   the pm_domain field is cleared for a device that appears to
   be bound to a driver (Rafael Wysocki).

 - New MCH size workaround quirk for Intel Haswell-ULT (Josh Boyer).

 - Fix for an "unused function" compiler warning in the generic
   power domains framework (Ulf Hansson).

 - Fixup for the ACPI driver for Intel SoCs (acpi-lpss) to set
   the PM domain pointer of a device properly in one place that
   was overlooked by a recent PM core update (Andy Shevchenko).

 - Removal of a redundant function declaration in the ACPI CPPC
   core code (Timur Tabi).

media fixes for v4.5-rc3

sound fixes for 4.5-rc3

This was a busy week and I had to prepare a pile of duct tapes for
the bugs reported by syzkaller fuzzer in wide range of ALSA core
APIs: timer, rawmidi, sequencer, and PCM OSS emulation.  Let's see
how many other holes we need to plug.

Besides that, a few usual boring stuff, HD- and USB-audio quirks,
have been added.

DeviceTree fixes for 4.5:

- Fix build error with *_OF_DECLARE() when used in modules

- Add missing platform maintainers for dts files in MAINTAINERS

First round of new IIO device support, features and cleanups for the 4.6 cycle.

Device Support
* ad5761
  - new driver
* at91_sama5d2 ADC.
  - new driver and MAINTAINERS entry.
  - minor cleanups followed.
* atlas pH-SM
  - new driver (this has possibly the prettiest data sheet I've ever seen)
* mcp3422
  - mcp3425 ADC added.
* mcp4725
  - mcp4726 DAC added.
* mma8452
  - mma8451q accelerometer added.
* mpl115
  - mpl115a1 added (a lot bigger than it seems as this is an SPI part whereas
    previous parts were i2c).
* si7005
  - Hoperf th02 (seems to be a repackaged part)
* si7020
  - Hoperf th06 (seems to be a repackaged part)

New features
* Core
  - IIO_PH type. Does what it says on the tin.
* max30100
  - LED current configuration support.
* mcp320x
  - more differential measurement combinations.
* mma8452
  - free fall deteciton
- opt3001
  - enable operation without a IRQ line.
  - device tree docs.  Somehow the original docs have disappeared down
    a rabbit hole, so here is a new set.
* st-sensors
  - Support active-low interrupts.

Cleanups and minor / not so minor reworks
* Documentation
  - drop some defunct ABI from the docs in staging.
* presure / Kconfig
  - white space cleanup.
* ad7150
  - BIT macro usage
  - Alignment fixes
* ad7192
  - false indent fixed.
* ak8975
  - constify the ak_def structures
* axp288
  - drop a redundant double const.
* dht11
  - substantial reliability improvements by being more tolerant
    of missing start bits.
  - simplify the decoding algorithm
* mma8452
  - whitespace cleanup
* mpl115
  - don't bother setting i2c_client_data as nothing uses it.
* mpu6050
  - drop unused function parameter.
* opt3001
  - extract integration time as constants.
  - trivial refactoring.

Second set of IIO fixes for the 4.5 cycle.  These ones are mostly
dependent on patches from the recent merge cycle.

* adc, imu and iio staging drivers
  - !HAS_IOMEM dependency fixes
* dht11
  - use boottime clock for time measurement to avoid incorrect measurements
   due to clock updates.
* lidar
  - correct a return value for short i2c transfers.

First set of IIO fixes for the 4.5 cycle.

This set comprises those not dependent on patches in the 4.5 merge cycle.
A second set will follow shortly with ones that are.

* core in kernel interfaces
  - fix a possible NULL dereference that is a theoretical possibility
    via odd usage of iio_channel_release. Pretty much a hardening of
    the interface, but observed in the wild with the twl4030_charger
    driver.
* acpi-als
  - report the data as processed as it is in lux.  This fixes a wrong
    use of the IIO ABI.  However, old _raw version retained to avoid
    breaking any userspace in the wild that is relying on that (none
    known but it doesn't hurt us much to retain it)
* ade7753
  - fix some error handling to avoid use of unitialized data.
* ltr501
  - use a signed return type for ltr501_match_samp_freq so as to allow
    returning of an error code.
* mcp4725
  - set name field of struct iio_dev to ensure the sysfs name attribute
    doesn't give NULL.
* mpl115
  - temperature offset sign is wrong.
* stk8ba50
  - IIO_TRIGGER dependency added
* ti_am335x_adc
  - Label buffer as a software buffer. It's actually a hybrid of a
    true hardware buffer feeding a kfifo, but the meaning of these fields
    has changed a little recently and in this case it should be labeled
    a software buffer ensure it is allowed to use the kfifo.
* vf610_adc
  - HAS_IOMEM dependency

Linux 4.5-rc2

This is the 4.4.1 stable release

This is the 4.3.5 stable release

This is the 4.1.17 stable release

More power management and ACPI fixes for v4.5-rc2

 - Fix a recent cpuidle core regression that broke suspend-to-idle
   on all systems where cpuidle drivers don't provide ->enter_freeze
   callbacks for any states (Sudeep Holla).

 - Drop an unnecessary symbol definition from the cpuidle core code
   handling coupled CPU cores (Anders Roxell).

 - Fix a race condition related to governor initialization and removal
   in the cpufreq core (Viresh Kumar).

 - Clean up the cpufreq core to use list_is_last() for checking if
   the given policy object is the last element of a list instead of
   open coding that in a clumsy way (Gautham R Shenoy).

 - Fix compiler warnings in the pxa2xx and cpufreq-dt cpufreq drivers
   (Arnd Bergmann).

 - Fix two locking issues and clean up a comment in the generic power
   domains framework (Ulf Hansson, Marek Szyprowski, Moritz Fischer).

 - Fix the error code path of one function in the ACPI-based PCI
   hotplug framework (ACPIPHP) that forgets to release a lock
   acquired previously (Insu Yun).

 - Drop the ACPI backlight blacklist entry for Dell Inspiron 5737
   that is not necessary any more (Hans de Goede).

 - Clean up the top-level PM Kconfig to stop requiring APM emulation
   to depend on PM which in fact isn't necessary (Arnd Bergmann).

	  handling and ATS handling.

	* Fix build error with arm io-pgtable code

	* Two documentation fixes

sound fixes for 4.5-rc2

There are a few fixes in ALSA core for bugs that have been spotted by
fuzzer.  Also a temporary workaround for PowerPC (and possibly other)
builds with incompatible ioctls was applied to compress API.

Other than that, a few trivial fixes and quirks for FireWire BeBoB,
USB-audio and HD-audio are found, too.

* Fix support for 3168 device:
  * NVM version
  * firmware file name
  * device IDs
* Fix a compilation warning in dvm calibration code
* Fix the TPC (reduced Tx Power) code. This fixes performance issues
* Add device IDs for 8265

rtx2x00

* fix monitor mode regression dating back to 4.1
