First round of new driver, new functionality and cleanups for IIO in the 4.4 cycle

New device support
* APDS9960 ALS + proximity driver
* bmg160 SPI devices.
* HDC100x humidity sensors
* Holt HI-8435 threshold detector
* mma8453Q accelerometer added to the mma8452 driver
* mma86452FC and mma8653FC accelerometers added to the mma8452 driver
* mxc4005 accelerometer
* PulsedLight LIDAR
* SensorTech VZ89x volatile organic compound sensor
* UPISEMI uS5182d ALS and proximity sensors

New core functionality
* triggered events - use triggers to check for changes in threshold type
  detectors on devices with out interrupt support.  First user is the holt
  comparator.
* chemical concentration and resistance channel types.

New driver functionality
* vf610
  - buffer support.
  - followup coccinelle warning fix.

Core rework
* buffers
  - break out callback buffer to own module.
  - move buffer implementations to a new subdirectory
* percolate the error code form iio_event_getfd out to userspace
  rather than giving a missleading error later on.

Cleanups
* adddac drivers
  - use BIT macro where appropriate.
* meter drivers
  - use BIT macro where appropriate.

* ad7303
 - add an OF match table to line up with the binding docs.
* adc128s052
  - add an OF match table to line up with the binding docs.
* adf4350
  - add an OF match table to line up with the binding docs
* as3935
  - add an OF match table to line up with the binding docs.
* berlin2-adc
  - use GENMASK and BIT for masks
  - prevent attempting to sample multiple channels at once by moving a
    mutex scop
  - coding style cleanups
* bmg150_magn
  - kconfig sort order was wrong - fix it.
* bmg160
  - use i2c regmap and drop all uses of i2c_client
  - separate i2c and core driver
* cc10001_adc
  - kconfig sort order was wrong - fix it.
* evgen (dummy driver helper module)
  - move interrupt generation to irq_work to reduce differences between
    the dummy driver and real hardware drivers.
* hmc5843
  - set the name dynamically rather than to a fixed value for one of the
    suported parts.
  - export module alias information to allow autoprobing of module.
* lpc32xx
  - on failure to get resource or irq return -ENXIO as uppose to -EBUSY
* max1027
  - set .of_match_table to actually allow OF style matching.
* max5821
  - add MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE for OF table.
* mma8452
  - refactor to separate out chip specific data.
  - add freefall / motion interrupt source for devices that do their
    interrupts slightly differently.
  - update copywrite notice.
  - leave naming of events directory in sysfs to the core
* mcp320x
  - set .of_match_table so that it can be use for OF style matching.
* mlx90614
  - Implement filter configuration (note the datasheet changed as a result
    of the driver reviews to include the values we needed ;)
* opt3001
  - drop .owner field as assigned by platform driver core.
* si7020
  - replace a bitmask on the humidity values with a more correct range
    check.
* stk310
  - improved error handling.
  - use BIT macro where appropriate and use the resulting defines
    instead of magic numbers in the code.
  - fix indentation
* st-sensors
  - add debugfs register read hook
* tsl4531
  - fix error handling in check_id
* twl6030
  - fix module autoload for OF
* iio-trig-sysfs
  - document add and remove attribute
* trigger in staging
  - code alignment fixes.
  - braces on both branches of if statement if needed for one.
* xilinx-xadc
  - push interrupts into hardirq context as there isn't much in them
    any more and it avoids breaking PREEMPT_RT builds due to the use
    of a spinlock between the hardirq and the thread.

Tools
* event-monitor
  - report unsupported events.  We keep expanding what can come from drivers
    so give a helpful error if one turns up in an out of date userspace
    program.
* generic-buffer
  - helpful message about needing to enable a channel to start the buffer.

regulator: Fixes for v4.3

A collection of fixes that came in since I tagged the merge window pull
request for v4.3:

 - Error handling fixes in the core.
 - Fixes to a couple of TI drivers for device specific issues.
 - Several fixes for module autoloading.

Qualcomm fixes for v4.3-rc1

* Add SCM function call stubs on ARM64

Just two small fixes:
 * VHT MCS mask array overrun, reported by Dan Carpenter
 * reset CQM history to always get a notification, from Sara Sharon

This is the 4.2.1 stable release

This is the 4.1.8 stable release

This is the 3.14.53 stable release

This is the 3.10.89 stable release

Linux 4.3-rc2

Power management and ACPI material for v4.3-rc2

 - Fix a memory allocation size in the devfreq core (Xiaolong Ye).

 - Fix a mistake in the exynos-ppmu DT binding (Javier Martinez
   Canillas).

 - Add support for PPMUv2 ((Platform Performance Monitoring Unit
   version 2.0) on the Exynos5433 SoCs (Chanwoo Choi).

 - Fix a type casting bug in the Exynos PPMU code (MyungJoo Ham).

 - Assorted devfreq code cleanups and optimizations (Javi Merino,
   MyungJoo Ham, Viresh Kumar).

 - Fix up the ACPI cpufreq driver to use a more lightweight way
   to get to its private data in the ->get() callback (Rafael J
   Wysocki).

 - Fix a CONFIG_ prefix bug in one of the ACPI drivers and make
   the ACPI subsystem use IS_ENABLED() instead of #ifdefs in
   function bodies (Sudeep Holla).

This is the 2.6.32.68 stable release

This is the 3.12.48 stable release

This is the 3.4.109 stable release

Linaro 15.09

This is the first round of GPIO fixes for v4.3:

- Return value checks and thus nicer errorpath for two drivers.

- Make GPIO_RCAR arch neutral.

- Propagate errors from GPIO chip ->get() vtable call. It turned
  out these can actually fail sometimes, especially on slowpath
  controllers doing I2C traffic and similar.

- Update documentation to be in sync with the massive changes in
  the v4.3 merge window, phew.

- Handle deferred probe properly in the OMAP driver.

- Get rid of surplus MODULE_ALIAS() from sx150x.

This is the 4.1.7 stable release
