Power management updates for 5.4-rc1

 - Rework the main suspend-to-idle control flow to avoid repeating

 - Increase the resolution of the play_idle() argument to microseconds
   for more fine-grained injection of CPU idle cycles (Daniel Lezcano).

 - Switch over some users of cpuidle notifiers to the new QoS-based
   frequency limits and drop the CPUFREQ_ADJUST and CPUFREQ_NOTIFY

media updates for v5.4-rc1

media fixes for v5.3-rc9

sound updates for 5.4

As shown in diffstat and logs, it was again a busy development
cycle at this time, too.  The most significant changes are still
on-going refactoring / modernization works for ASoC core and
drivers, but there are lots of other changes as well.  Here we go,
some highlights below:

ASoC:
- Quite lots of cleanup / refactoring of ASoC core and APIs;
  most of them are systematic, but also including cleanups and
  modernization

- A bulk of updates for some ASoC platforms, Freescale, sunxi and
  Intel SST/SOF

- Initial support for Sound Open Firmware on i.MX8

- Removal of deprecated w90x900 and nuc900 drivers

- New support for Cirrus Logic CS47L15 and CS47L92, Freescale i.MX
  7ULP and 8MQ, Meson G12A and NXP UDA1334

USB-audio:
- More validations of descriptor units for hardening against bugs
  reported by fuzzers

- PCM device assignment workaround for a past call-order change

- Scarlett Gen2 mixer interface, a few more more quirks

HD-audio:
- Support for audio component with AMD/ATI and Nvidia HDMI codecs

- Clean up HD-audio core and remove indirect access ops for Intel SOF

- DMIC detection at probe; it would make systems automatically falling
  back to SST/SOF driver on devices that need DMIC handling.
  Needs a new Kconfig to set, and beware that it's still new and a bit
  experimental

FireWire:
- Lots of code refactoring and cleanups

This is the 5.2.15 stable release
