Lubomir Rintel f6936d029c MAINTAINERS: update entry for MMP platform
Move Eric Miao and Haojian Zhuang over to CREDITS, since they're AWOL
for some time already. The git trees have gone away too.

I'm adding myself as a reviewer. I'd like to be Cc'd on patches and will
be able to test them, but I don't possess a data sheet thus there might
be things I'll be unable to review. Hence the Odd-Fixes status.

Aaro Koskinen f341e16fb6 MAINTAINERS: update OMAP MMC entry
Jarkko's e-mail address hasn't worked for a long time.  We still want to
keep this driver working as it is critical for some of the OMAP boards.
I use and test this driver frequently, so change myself as a maintainer
with "Odd Fixes" status.

Merge tag 'selinux-pr-20170831' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/pcmoore/selinux

Pull selinux updates from Paul Moore:
 "A relatively quiet period for SELinux, 11 patches with only two/three
  having any substantive changes.

  These noteworthy changes include another tweak to the NNP/nosuid
  handling, per-file labeling for cgroups, and an object class fix for
  AF_UNIX/SOCK_RAW sockets; the rest of the changes are minor tweaks or
  administrative updates (Stephen's email update explains the file
  explosion in the diffstat).

  Everything passes the selinux-testsuite"

[ Also a couple of small patches from the security tree from Tetsuo
  Handa for Tomoyo and LSM cleanup. The separation of security policy
  updates wasn't all that clean - Linus ]

Hans-Christian Noren Egtvedt 26202873bb avr32: remove support for AVR32 architecture
This patch drops support for AVR32 architecture from the Linux kernel.

The AVR32 architecture is not keeping up with the development of the
kernel, and since it shares so much of the drivers with Atmel ARM SoC,
it is starting to hinder these drivers to develop swiftly.

Also, all AVR32 AP7 SoC processors are end of lifed from Atmel (now
Microchip).

Finally, the GCC toolchain is stuck at version 4.2.x, and has not
received any patches since the last release from Atmel;
4.2.4-atmel.1.1.3.avr32linux.1. When building kernel v4.10, this
toolchain is no longer able to properly link the network stack.

Haavard and I have came to the conclusion that we feel keeping AVR32 on
life support offers more obstacles for Atmel ARMs, than it gives joy to
AVR32 users. I also suspect there are very few AVR32 users left today,
if anybody at all.

Linus Torvalds 991bc36254 Merge branch 'x86-microcode-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip
Pull x86 microcode update from Ingo Molnar:
 "The biggest change (by Borislav Petkov) is a thorough rewrite of the
  Intel microcode loader and its interactions with the core code.

  The biggest conceptual change is the decoupling of the microcode
  loading on boot and application processors (which load the microcode
  in different scenarios), so that both parse the input patches with as
  few assumptions as possible - this also fixes various kernel address
  space randomization bugs. (The AP side then goes on and caches the
  result to improve boot performance.)

  Since the AMD side already did this, this change also opened up the
  path towards more unification/simplification of the core microcode
  loading infrastructure:

     10 files changed, 647 insertions(+), 940 deletions(-)

  which speaks for itself"

Linus Torvalds ed8d747fd2 Fix up a couple of field names in the CREDITS file
Ozgur Karatas reported that the very first entry in the CREDITS file had
the wrong tag for name (M: instead of N: - it happened when moving the
entry from the MAINTAINERS file, where 'M:' stands for "Maintainer").

And when I went looking, I found a couple of other cases of wrong
tagging too.

Alan is no longer maintaining this list through the Linux assigned

"the maintainers" in plural throughout, and naming the chardev and

Cut down and remove some sections that pertained to the process of
maintaining the list at lanana.org and contacting Alan directly.

Make it clear that this document, in the kernel, is the master

Also move paragraphs around so as to emphasize dynamic major number

Remove paragraph on 2.6 deprecation, that tag no longer appears

Ricardo Ribalda Delgado 131497acd8 iio: add ad5761 DAC driver
ad5761 is a 1-channel DAC with configurable output range.
The driver uses the regulator interface for its voltage ref.

It shares its register layout with ad5761r, ad5721 and ad5721r.

Differences:
ad5761* are 16 bit, ad5721* are 12 bits.
ad57*1r have an internal reference.

Linus Torvalds 88a99886c2 This is the bulk of pin control changes for the v4.3 development
cycle
 
 Core changes:
 
 - It is possible configure groups in debugfs.
 
 - Consolidation of chained IRQ handler install/remove replacing
   all call sites where irq_set_handler_data() and
   irq_set_chained_handler() were done in succession with a
   combined call to irq_set_chained_handler_and_data(). This
   series was created by Thomas Gleixner after the problem was
   observed by Russell King.
 
 - Tglx also made another series of patches switching
   __irq_set_handler_locked() for irq_set_handler_locked() which
   is way cleaner.
 
 - Tglx also wrote a good bunch of patches to make use of
   irq_desc_get_xxx() accessors and avoid looking up irq_descs
   from IRQ numbers. The goal is to get rid of the irq number
   from the handlers in the IRQ flow which is nice.
 
 Driver feature enhancements:
 
 - Power management support for the SiRF SoC Atlas 7.
 
 - Power down support for the Qualcomm driver.
 
 - Intel Cherryview and Baytrail: switch drivers to use raw
   spinlocks in IRQ handlers to play nice with the realtime
   patch set.
 
 - Rework and new modes handling for Qualcomm SPMI-MPP.
 
 - Pinconf power source config for SH PFC.
 
 New drivers and subdrivers:
 
 - A new driver for Conexant Digicolor CX92755.
 
 - A new driver for UniPhier PH1-LD4, PH1-Pro4, PH1-sLD8,
   PH1-Pro5, ProXtream2 and PH1-LD6b SoC pin control support.
 
 - Reverse-egineered the S/PDIF settings for the Allwinner
   sun4i driver.
 
 - Support for Qualcomm Technologies QDF2xxx ARM64 SoCs
 
 - A new Freescale i.mx6ul subdriver.
 
 Cleanup:
 
 - Remove platform data support in a number of SH PFC
   subdrivers.

Aleksa Sarai 49b786ea14 cgroup: implement the PIDs subsystem
Adds a new single-purpose PIDs subsystem to limit the number of
tasks that can be forked inside a cgroup. Essentially this is an
implementation of RLIMIT_NPROC that applies to a cgroup rather than a
process tree.

However, it should be noted that organisational operations (adding and
removing tasks from a PIDs hierarchy) will *not* be prevented. Rather,
the number of tasks in the hierarchy cannot exceed the limit through
forking. This is due to the fact that, in the unified hierarchy, attach
cannot fail (and it is not possible for a task to overcome its PIDs
cgroup policy limit by attaching to a child cgroup -- even if migrating
mid-fork it must be able to fork in the parent first).

PIDs are fundamentally a global resource, and it is possible to reach
PID exhaustion inside a cgroup without hitting any reasonable kmemcg
policy. Once you've hit PID exhaustion, you're only in a marginally
better state than OOM. This subsystem allows PID exhaustion inside a
cgroup to be prevented.

Ulf Hansson a1cb1d1114 MAINTAINERS: mmc: Cleanup MMC/SD/SDIO section and SDHCI driver section
As Chris Ball has moved on to other assignments, he's no longer able to
help me maintain MMC. Let's remove him from the MMC sections in
MAINTAINERS and add him to CREDIT file.

This also affects the SDHCI DRIVER section, since its state now becomes
orphan.

I'm leaving Red Hat at the end of December 2014, so remove all
references to my soon-to-be-dead address.

(There are some references left in the tree, that need additional
changes, I'll send those through the AGP maintainers).
