  • iio-for-3.16b
    Second set of IIO new drivers, cleanups and functionality for the 3.16 cycle.
    
    This set contains a change to the ABI for the hid-sensors drivers to bring them
    in line with the long published documentation.  Unfortunately, rather than
    reporting true scale and offset values via sysfs they were reporting
    some magic numbers that could only be converted to anything useful using
    the HID sensors specification. I missed this entirely through the introduction
    of a number of drivers, only picking up on it recently.  Srinivas has had
    user feedback about this as well. The patch set is too large to go as a fix
    at this stage in the cycle and is not a regression fix as this was never
    right and so will have to wait for the next merge window. Srinivas assures
    me that there are relatively few pieces of hardware out there and he has
    had a number of people contact him to point out that the drivers did not
    obey the ABI.  Hence hopefully the fallout of this, if any will be minor.
    If we don't fix it now, it will only get worse going forward. There is no
    sensible way of maintaining the incorrect ABI as it is simply returning
    the wrong values through the standard interfaces.
    
    Non IIO elements
    * Introduce devm_kmemdup.  Does what it says on the tin.
    
    New drivers:
    * hid-sensors rotation devices (output as quaternion)
    * Freescale MPL115A2 presure and temperature sensor.
    * Melexis mlx90614 contactless infrared sensor.
    * Freescale MMA8452Q 3-axis accelerometer.
    
    New functionality:
    * Addition of multiple element callback to allow for sysfs interfaces to access
      elements such as quaternions which have no useful meaning if all 4 elements
      are not presented together.  Other future usecases for this include
      rotation matrices.
    * Support for multiple element buffer entries for exactly the same uses as
      the sysfs related elements described above.
    * Quaternion support via the quaternion IIO modifier.
    * TEMP_AMBIENT and TEMP_OBJECT modifiers to distinguish cases with thermopile
      devices.
    * hid-sensors gain sysfs access to the sensor readings. Previously these
      drivers used the buffered interface only.  This change involves some
      additional hid-sensors core support to read poll values back from the devices
      to allow the drivers to know roughly how long to wait for a result when
      polling the sensor.  There is also an associated hid-sensors abi to allow
      the devices to be turned off between reads and powered up on demand.
    
    Cleanups and fixes
    * Hid sensors fix as described above. Result is to make the _scale and _offset
      attributes applicable in the same way as for all other IIO drivers.
    * Some additional documentation - mostly covering stuff that graduated from
      staging without managing to take it's ABI docs with it.
    * A series of little tidy ups to the exynos_adc driver that make the code
      nicer to read and improve handling of some corner cases.
    * A tidy up to mag3110 (logical fix rather than a real one ;). Also enable
      user offset calibration for this device.
    * Drop some left over IS_ERR() checks from ad799x that snuck through during
      the cleanup in the last IIO patch set.
    * Fix a naming issue from clashing patches in ak8975 - note the clash only
      occured in the last IIO patch set, hence the fix needs to go through this
      tree.
    * A format string missmatch fix in ad7280.c. Unlikely to have ever had an
      impact so not worth rushing through.

  • sunxi-pinctrl-for-3.16
    Pinctrl cleanup and reworks for 3.16
    
    This serie of patch:
      - Moves the Allwinner pinctrl driver to a folder of its own
      - removes the sunxi-pinctrl-pins header, and split the driver into a core
        one, with all the logic, and smaller drivers, one for each SoC, that
        declare the pins, and will provide to the core the set of pins.
      - And does a few cleanups here and there.
    
  • pm+acpi-3.15-rc4
    ACPI and power management fixes for 3.15-rc4
    
     - There are two bugs in the ACPI PNP core that cause errors to
       be returned if optional ACPI methods are not present.  After
       an ACPI core change made in 3.14 one of those errors leads
       to serial port suspend failures on some systems.  Fix from
       Rafael J Wysocki.
    
     - A recently added PNP quirk related to Intel chipsets intorduced
       a build error in unusual configurations (PNP without PCI).  Fix
       from Bjorn Helgaas.
    
     - An ACPI EC workaround related to system suspend on Samsung machines
       added in 3.14 introduced a race causing some valid EC events to be
       discarded.  Fix from Kieran Clancy.
    
     - The acpi-cpufreq driver fails to load on some systems after a 3.14
       commit related to APIC ID parsing that overlooked one corner case.
       Fix from Lan Tianyu.
    
     - Fix for a recently introduced build problem in the ppc-corenet
       cpufreq driver from Tim Gardner.
    
     - A recent cpufreq core change to ensure serialization of frequency
       transitions for drivers with a ->target_index() callback overlooked
       the fact that some of those drivers had been doing operations
       introduced by it into the core already by themselves.  That resulted
       in a mess in which the core and the drivers try to do the same thing
       and block each other which leads to deadlocks.  Fixes for the
       powernow-k7, powernow-k6, and longhaul cpufreq drivers from
       Srivatsa S Bhat.
    
     - Fix for a computational error in the powernow-k6 cpufreq driver
       from Srivatsa S Bhat.

  • iio-fixes-for-3.15b
    Second set of fixes for IIO in the 3.15 cycle.
    
    * ad2s1200 - Fix some missing parenthesis in a for statement that could have
      led to an error being missed when getting gpios.
    * Fix a null derefference issue in the mpu6050 when platform data is not
      provided (or is provided via the device tree for example).
    * exynos_adc bug on remove due to child devices having been added to the
      parent of the IIO device rather than the IIO device itself.  This caused an
      issue with the IIO device removing itself in it's remove function.
    * Make all ADC drivers buildable as modules to avoid dependency issues if
      the IIO core is itself built as a module.  The exynos adc bug became
      apparently whilst this fix was being tested.
    
  • iio-for-3.16a
    First round of IIO new driver, functionality and cleanups for the 3.16 cycle.
    
    New device support
    * AS3935 Lightning Sensor
    * MCP3426/7/8 support added to the existing MCP3422 ADC driver
    * AK8963 support in the AK8975 driver
    * MPU6500 support in the MPU6050 driver (the functionality that is different
      is mostly not supported yet in either part).
    
    Staging Graduations
    * AD799x ADC
    
    New functionality
    * ACPI enumeration for the ak8975 driver
    
    Cleanup / tweaks
    * Use snprintf as a matter of good practice in a few additional places.
    * Document *_mean_raw attributes.  These have been there a while, but were
      undocumented.
    * Add an in kernel interface to get the mean values.
    * Bug in the length of the event info mask that by coincidence wasn't yet
      actually causing any problems.
    * itg3000 drop an unreachable return statement.
    * spear_adc cleanups (heading for a staging graduation but a few more
      issues showed up in the review of these patches).
    * Exynos ADC dependencies changed so it is only built when Exynos is present
      or COMPILE_TEST and OF are set.
    * tsl2583 cleanups.
    * Some cut and paste typos in the comments of various drivers still in staging.
    * Couple of minor improvements to the ST sensor drivers.
