Here is the big TTY and Serial patch set for 4.9-rc1.
It also includes some drivers/dma/ changes, as those were needed by some
serial drivers, and they were all acked by the DMA maintainer. Also in
here is the long-suffering ACPI SPCR patchset, which was passed around
from maintainer to maintainer like a hot-potato. Seems I was the
sucker^Wlucky one. All of those patches have been acked by the various
subsystem maintainers as well.
All of this has been in linux-next with no reported issues.

"Yet another batch of cpu hotplug core updates and conversions:
- Provide core infrastructure for multi instance drivers so the

list conversion comes through the block tree and makes the diffstat
tip over to more lines removed than added.
- Handle unbalanced hotplug enable/disable calls more gracefully.
- Remove the obsolete CPU_STARTING/DYING notifier support.

shipped to me by Andrew.

"The irq departement proudly presents:
- A rework of the core infrastructure to optimally spread interrupt
for multiqueue devices. The first version was a bit naive and
failed to take thread siblings and other details into account.
Developed in cooperation with Christoph and Keith.
- Proper delegation of softirqs to ksoftirqd, so if ksoftirqd is
active then no further softirq processsing on interrupt return
happens. Otherwise we try to delegate and still run another batch
of network packets in the irq return path, which then tries to
delegate to ksoftirqd .....
- A proper machine parseable sysfs based alternative for
/proc/interrupts.
- ACPI support for the GICV3-ITS and ARM interrupt remapping

Pull EFI updates from Ingo Molnar:
"Main changes in this cycle were:
- Refactor the EFI memory map code into architecture neutral files
and allow drivers to permanently reserve EFI boot services regions
on x86, as well as ARM/arm64. (Matt Fleming)
- Add ARM support for the EFI ESRT driver. (Ard Biesheuvel)
- Make the EFI runtime services and efivar API interruptible by
swapping spinlocks for semaphores. (Sylvain Chouleur)
- Provide the EFI identity mapping for kexec which allows kexec to
work on SGI/UV platforms with requiring the "noefi" kernel command
line parameter. (Alex Thorlton)
- Add debugfs node to dump EFI page tables on arm64. (Ard Biesheuvel)
- Merge the EFI test driver being carried out of tree until now in
the FWTS project. (Ivan Hu)
- Expand the list of flags for classifying EFI regions as "RAM" on
arm64 so we align with the UEFI spec. (Ard Biesheuvel)
- Optimise out the EFI mixed mode if it's unsupported (CONFIG_X86_32)
or disabled (CONFIG_EFI_MIXED=n) and switch the early EFI boot
services function table for direct calls, alleviating us from
having to maintain the custom function table. (Lukas Wunner)

Pull ACPI updates from Rafael Wysocki:
"First off, the ACPICA code in the kernel is updated to upstream
revision 20160831 that brings in a few bug fixes and cleanups. In
particular, it is possible to mask GPEs now (and the sysfs interface
for GPE control is fixed on top of that), problems related to the
table loading mechanism are fixed and all code related to FADT version
2 (which has never been part of the ACPI specification) is dropped.
On the new features front, there is a new watchdog driver based on the
ACPI WDAT (ACPI Watchdog Action Table), needed on some platforms to
replace the iTCO watchdog that doesn't work there, and some UART
devices get new definitions of built-in properties (to be accessed via
the generic device properties API).
Also, included is a fix for an ACPI-related PCI resorces allocation
issue and a few problems in the EC driver and in the button and
battery drivers are fixed.
In addition to that, the ACPI CPPC library is updated to make batching
of requests sent over the PCC channel possible (which reduces the PCC
usage overhead substantially in some cases) and to support functional
fixed hardware (FFH) type of CPPC registers access (which will allow
CPPC to be used on x86 too in the future).
As usual, there are some assorted fixes and cleanups too.
Specifics:
- Update of the ACPICA code in the kernel to upstream revision
20160831 with the following major changes:
* New mechanism for GPE masking.
* Fixes for issues related to the LoadTable operator and table
loading.
* Fixes for issues related to so-called module-level code (MLC),

Pull power management updates from Rafael Wysocki:
"Traditionally, cpufreq is the area with the greatest number of
changes, but there are fewer of them than last time. There also is
some activity in the generic power domains and the devfreq frameworks,
a couple of system suspend and hibernation fixes and some assorted
changes in other places.
One new feature is the cpufreq change to allow the scheduler to pass
hints to the governors' utilization update callbacks and some code
rework based on that. Another one is the support for domain removal in
the generic power domains framework. Also it is now possible to use
hibernation with PAGE_POISONING_ZERO enabled and devfreq supports the
RockChip DFI controller and the rk3399 DMC.

Pull ARM fixes from Russell King:
"Three relatively small fixes for ARM:
- Roger noticed that dma_max_pfn() was calculating the upper limit
wrongly, by adding the PFN offset of memory twice.
- A fix from Robin to correct parsing of MPIDR values when the
address size is larger than one BE32 unit.
- A fix from Srinivas to ensure that we do not rely on the boot
loader (or previous Linux kernel) setting the translation table
base register a certain way in the decompressor, which can lead to
crashes"

ARM: 8617/1: dma: fix dma_max_pfn()
ARM: 8616/1: dt: Respect property size when parsing CPUs
If the bootloader uses the long descriptor format and jumps to
kernel decompressor code, TTBCR may not be in a right state.
Before enabling the MMU, it is required to clear the TTBCR.PD0
field to use TTBR0 for translation table walks.
The commit dbece45894 ("ARM: 7501/1: decompressor:
reset ttbcr for VMSA ARMv7 cores") does the reset of TTBCR.N, but
doesn't consider all the bits for the size of TTBCR.N.
Clear TTBCR.PD0 field and reset all the three bits of TTBCR.N to
indicate the use of TTBR0 and the correct base address width.

When discovering the number of VPEs per core, smp_num_siblings will be
incorrect for kernels built without support for the MIPS MultiThreading
(MT) ASE running on systems which implement said ASE. This leads to
accesses to VPEs in secondary cores being performed incorrectly since
mips_cm_vp_id calculates the wrong ID to write to the local "other"
registers. Fix this by examining the number of VPEs in the core as
reported by the CM.
This patch presumes that the number of VPEs will be the same in each
core of the system. As this path only applies to systems with CM version
2.5 or lower, and this property is true of all such known systems, this
is likely to be fine but is described in a comment for good measure.

due to references from .debug_frame which itself could not be discardrd
due to the forced "write,alloc" attributes for it.

This uses a new set of annoations viz. ENTRY_CFI/END_CFI to enabel cfi
ops generation.
Note that we didn't change the normal ENTRY/EXIT as we don't actually
want unwind info in the trap/exception/interrutp handlers which use
these, as unwinder then gets confused (it keeps recursing vs. stopping).
Semantically these are leaf routines and unwinding should stop when it
hits those routines.

1. detect whether binutils supports the cfi pseudo ops
2. define conditional macros to generate the ops
3. define new ENTRY_CFI/END_CFI to annotate hand asm code.
- Needed because we don't want to emit dwarf info in general ENTRY/END
used by lowest level trap/exception/interrutp handlers as unwinder
gets confused trying to unwind out of them. We want unwinder to
instead stop when it hits onfo those routines

In .debug_frame based unwinding regime, we used to force -gdwarf-2 since
kernel unwinder only claimed to handle dwarf 2. This changed since commit
6d0d506012 ("ARC: dw2 unwind: Don't bail for CIE.version != 1")
which added some support beyond dwarf 2, atleast to handle CIE != 1
The ill-effect of -gdwarf-2 is that it forces generation of .debug_*
sections, which bloats loadable modules .ko files. For the curious, this
doesn't affect vmlinx binary since linker script discards .debug_* but
same discard is not yet implemented for modules.
So it seems we can drop the -gdwarf-2 toggle, which should not be needed
anyways given that we now use .eh_frame based unwinding.
I've verified using GNU 2016.09-engo10 that the actual unwind info is
not different with or w/o this toggle - but the debug_* sections are
gone for good.

So finally after almost 8 years of dealing with .debug_frame, we are
finally switching to .eh_frame. The reason being stripped kernel
binaries had non-functional unwinder as .debug_frame was gone.
Also, in general .eh_frame seems more common way of doing unwinding.
This also folds a revert of f52e126cc7 ("ARC: unwind: ensure that
.debug_frame is generated (vs. .eh_frame)") to ensure that we start
getting .eh_frame

We used to live with PERF_COUNT_HW_CACHE_REFERENCES and
PERF_COUNT_HW_CACHE_REFERENCES not specified on ARC.
Those events are actually aliases to 2 cache events that we do support
and so this change sets "cache-reference" and "cache-misses" events
in the same way as "L1-dcache-loads" and L1-dcache-load-misses.
And while at it adding debug info for cache events as well as doing a
subtle fix in HW events debug info - config value is much better
represented by hex so we may see not only event index but as well other
control bits set (if they exist).

do_int80_syscall_32() will call enter_form_user_mode() to convert context

can fail with user gsbase, gsbase will be fixed up and proceed if this
happen.
However, enter_from_user_mode() will be called again in the fixed up path
though it is context tracking kernel state currently.
This patch fixes it by just fixing up gsbase and telling lockdep that IRQs
