"LE.UM.2.3.2-13400-SDX24"

DeviceTree updates for 4.16:

- Convert to use memblock_virt_alloc in DT code which supports bootmem
  arches. With this we can remove the arch specific
  early_init_dt_alloc_memory_arch() functions.

- Enable running the DT unittests on UML

- Use SPDX license tags on DT files

- Fix early FDT kconfig ifdef logic

- Clean-up unittest Makefile

- Fix function comment for of_irq_parse_raw

- Add missing documentation for linux,initrd-{start,end} properties

- Clean-up of binding examples using uppercase hex

- Add trivial devices W83773G and Infineon TLV493D-A1B6

- Add missing STM32 SoC bindings

- Various small binding doc fixes

The is the bulk of GPIO changes for the v4.16 kernel cycle.

Core changes:

- Disallow open drain and open source flags to be set
  simultaneously. This doesn't make electrical sense, and would
  the hardware actually respond to this setting, the result
  would be short circuit.

- ACPI GPIO has a new core infrastructure for handling quirks.
  The quirks are there to deal with broken ACPI tables centrally
  instead of pushing the work to individual drivers. In the world
  of BIOS writers, the ACPI tables are perfect. Until they find a
  mistake in it. When such a mistake is found, we can patch it
  with a quirk. It should never happen, the problem is that it
  happens. So we accomodate for it.

- Several documentation updates.

- Revert the patch setting up initial direction state from
  reading the device. This was causing bad things for drivers
  that can't read status on all its pins. It is only affecting
  debugfs information quality.

- Label descriptors with the device name if no explicit label is
  passed in.

- Pave the ground for transitioning SPI and regulators to use
  GPIO descriptors by implementing some quirks in the device tree
  GPIO parsing code.

New drivers:

- New driver for the Access PCIe IDIO 24 family.

Other:

- Major refactorings and improvements to the GPIO mockup driver
  used for test and verification.

- Moved the AXP209 driver over to pin control since it gained a
  pin control back-end. These patches will appear (with the same
  hashes) in the pin control pull request as well.

- Convert the onewire GPIO driver w1-gpio to use descriptors.
  This is merged here since the W1 maintainers send very few
  pull requests and he ACKed it.

- Start to clean up driver headers using <linux/gpio.h> to just
  use <linux/gpio/driver.h> as appropriate.

media updates for v4.16-rc1

This contains the backlight portion of Meghana Madhyastha's patch set to
migrate the backlight helpers from tinydrm to the backlight subsystem.

regulator: Changes for v4.16

This is a quiet release in terms of code volume but a fairly big one in
terms of framework changes - we've got one long awaited feature in the
form of runtime configuration of suspend and the start of coupled
regulator support too:

 - Support for modifying the voltage and enable configuration devices
   will have in suspend, contributed by Chunyan Zhang.
 - Support for the Spreadtrum SC2731, contributed by Erick Chen.
 - The start of changes to support coupled regulators from Maciej
   Purski, the rest of the series should arrive for v4.17.

ASoC: Updates for v4.16

With the merge window having been delayed for another week here's
another batch of updates that came in during that week.  There's a few
important fixes in here, mainly a fix for I/O on a number of devices
caused by some of the component rework and a fix for a potential issue
if more than one component in a link provides compressed operations.

Linux 4.15

wireless-drivers fixes for 4.15

ssb

* last minute patch to fix b43 and b44 drivers on non-mips platforms,
  a regression from v4.15-rc9

vc4 and nouveau fixes

two vc4 fixes.

Two vc4 fixes that were applied in the last day.
One fixes a NULL dereference, and the other fixes
a flickering bug.

This is the 4.14.15 stable release

This is the 4.9.78 stable release

This is the 4.4.113 stable release

Linux 4.1.49

Less than a handful of changes:
 * possible memory leak fix in hwsim
 * speed up hwsim
 * add hwsim userspace rate control API
 * code cleanups

Linux 4.15-rc9

sound updates for 4.16-rc1

The major changes in the core API side in this cycle are the still
on-going ASoC componentization works.  Other than that, only few small
changes such as 20bit PCM format support are found.

Meanwhile the rest majority of changes are for ASoC drivers:
- Large cleanups of some of the TI CODEC drivers
- Continued work on Intel ASoC stuff for new quirks, ACPI GPIO
  handling, Kconfigs and lots of cleanups
- Refactoring of the Freescale SSI driver, as preliminary work for the
  upcoming changes
- Work on ST DFSDM driver, including the required IIO patches
- New drivers for Allwinner A83T, Maxim MAX89373, SocioNext UiniPhier
  EVEA Tempo Semiconductor TSCS42xx and TI PCM816x, TAS5722 and TAS6424
  devices
- Removal of dead codes for SN95031 and board drivers

Last but not least, a few HD-audio and USB-audio quirks are included
as usual, too.

ASoC: Updates for v4.16

Some final updates for the merge window, this brings in some
improvements to the ACPI GPIO handling for Intel and a bunch of fixes.
