Core changes
- Allow the GPIO irqchip to allocate IRQs dynamically. This is
an important change on systems where only a restricted number
of IRQs, lesser than the number of GPIO lines, can be utilized.
Now we can allocate these on a first-come-first-served basis
instead of hogging up valuable IRQ lines.
- Serious fix-up of the kerneldoc documentation and inclusion
into the kerneldoc builds.
- Pulled in the IRQ simulator from the IRQ core tree and use
this in the GPIO mockup driver for exhaustive testing of
interrupt abilities.
New drivers
- New driver for ThunderX and OCTEON-TX. This is especially
interesting as it picks up improvements from the IRQ core that
allow us to handle fasteoi ACKs upwards in a hierarchy when
there are IRQ flag latches on several levels in a hierarchy.
Very interesting work here.
- New subdriver for Renesas R-Car r8a7745 (RZ/G1E).
Misc
- Several fixes and improvements for Xilinx Zynq GPIO.
- Support an enablement GPIO for the 74x164 GPIO.
- Switch a bunch of chips to use devres to allocate irq
descriptors.
- A bunch of constification fixes.

"This is the bulk of the GPIO changes for the v4.14 cycle.
Not so much changes this time, phew. David Daney and Bartosz
Golaszewski did all the really interesting work in infrastructure
improvement across GPIO and IRQ core, hats off for them and to tglx
and Marc Z for general help with these patch sets.
