 "Here is the bit set of char/misc drivers for 4.19-rc1

  There is a lot here, much more than normal, seems like everyone is
  writing new driver subsystems these days... Anyway, major things here
  are:

   - new FSI driver subsystem, yet-another-powerpc low-level hardware
     bus

   - gnss, finally an in-kernel GPS subsystem to try to tame all of the
     crazy out-of-tree drivers that have been floating around for years,
     combined with some really hacky userspace implementations. This is
     only for GNSS receivers, but you have to start somewhere, and this
     is great to see.

  Other than that, there are new slimbus drivers, new coresight drivers,
  new fpga drivers, and loads of DT bindings for all of these and
  existing drivers.

  All of these have been in linux-next for a while with no reported
  issues"

Pull power management updates from Rafael Wysocki:
 "These add a new framework for CPU idle time injection, to be used by
  all of the idle injection code in the kernel in the future, fix some
  issues and add a number of relatively small extensions in multiple
  places.

  Specifics:

   - Add a new framework for CPU idle time injection (Daniel Lezcano).

   - Add AVS support to the armada-37xx cpufreq driver (Gregory
     CLEMENT).

   - Add support for current CPU frequency reporting to the ACPI CPPC
     cpufreq driver (George Cherian).

   - Rework the cooling device registration in the imx6q/thermal driver
     (Bastian Stender).

   - Make the pcc-cpufreq driver refuse to work with dynamic scaling
     governors on systems with many CPUs to avoid scalability issues
     with it (Rafael Wysocki).

   - Fix the intel_pstate driver to report different maximum CPU
     frequencies on systems where they really are different and to
     ignore the turbo active ratio if hardware-managend P-states (HWP)
     are in use; make it use the match_string() helper (Xie Yisheng,
     Srinivas Pandruvada).

   - Fix a minor deferred probe issue in the qcom-kryo cpufreq driver
     (Niklas Cassel).

   - Add a tracepoint for the tracking of frequency limits changes (from
     Andriod) to the cpufreq core (Ruchi Kandoi).

   - Fix a circular lock dependency between CPU hotplug and sysfs
     locking in the cpufreq core reported by lockdep (Waiman Long).

   - Avoid excessive error reports on driver registration failures in
     the ARM cpuidle driver (Sudeep Holla).

   - Add a new device links flag to the driver core to make links go
     away automatically on supplier driver removal (Vivek Gautam).

   - Eliminate potential race condition between system-wide power
     management transitions and system shutdown (Pingfan Liu).

   - Add a quirk to save NVS memory on system suspend for the ASUS 1025C
     laptop (Willy Tarreau).

   - Make more systems use suspend-to-idle (instead of ACPI S3) by
     default (Tristian Celestin).

   - Get rid of stack VLA usage in the low-level hibernation code on
     64-bit x86 (Kees Cook).

   - Fix error handling in the hibernation core and mark an expected
     fall-through switch in it (Chengguang Xu, Gustavo Silva).

   - Extend the generic power domains (genpd) framework to support
     attaching a device to a power domain by name (Ulf Hansson).

   - Fix device reference counting and user limits initialization in the
     devfreq core (Arvind Yadav, Matthias Kaehlcke).

   - Fix a few issues in the rk3399_dmc devfreq driver and improve its
     documentation (Enric Balletbo i Serra, Lin Huang, Nick Milner).

   - Drop a redundant error message from the exynos-ppmu devfreq driver
     (Markus Elfring)"

Pull regulator updates from Mark Brown:
 "The biggest set of changes in here is the addition of the Qualcomm
  RPMH driver. As well as the regualtor driver itself being quite large
  due to the usual involved Qualcomm regulator stuff there's also some
  code shared with the arm-soc tree, a bus driver required to
  communicate with the hardware that actually winds up being much larger
  than the regulator driver itself and a LLCC driver that was part of
  the same signed tag used with the arm-soc tree.

  Other than that it's a fairly standard and quiet release, highlights
  include:

   - Addition of device links from regulator consumers to their
     regulators, helping the core avoid dependency issues during
     suspend.

   - Support for the entertainingly innovative suspend implementation in
     the BD9571MWV.

   - Support for switch regulators on the PFUZE100, this required two
     goes due to backwards compatibility issues with old DTs that were
     discovered.

   - Support for Freescale PFUZE3001 and SocioNext UniPhier.

   - The aforementioned Qualcomm RPMH driver together with the driver
     changes required to support it"

<title>dma-mapping: Generalise dma_32bit_limit flag</title>

<id>urn:sha1:f07d141fe9430cdf9f8a65a87c4136bd83b8ab2e</id>
<content type='text'>
Whilst the notion of an upstream DMA restriction is most commonly seen
in PCI host bridges saddled with a 32-bit native interface, a more
general version of the same issue can exist on complex SoCs where a bus
or point-to-point interconnect link from a device's DMA master interface
to another component along the path to memory (often an IOMMU) may carry
fewer address bits than the interfaces at both ends nominally support.
In order to properly deal with this, the first step is to expand the
dma_32bit_limit flag into an arbitrary mask.

To minimise the impact on existing code, we'll make sure to only
consider this new mask valid if set. That makes sense anyway, since a
mask of zero would represent DMA not being wired up at all, and that
would be better handled by not providing valid ops in the first place.

<content type='text'>
There are still quite a few cases where a device might want
to get to a different node of the device-tree, obtain the
resources and map them.

We have of_iomap() and of_io_request_and_map() but they both
have shortcomings, such as not returning the size of the
resource found (which can be useful) and not being "managed".

This adds a devm_of_iomap() that provides all of these and
should probably replace uses of the above in most drivers.

they can be created with uid/gid different from global root. This will

Deferred probe will currently wait forever on dependent devices to probe,
but sometimes a driver will never exist. It's also not always critical for
a driver to exist. Platforms can rely on default configuration from the
bootloader or reset defaults for things such as pinctrl and power domains.
This is often the case with initial platform support until various drivers
get enabled. There's at least 2 scenarios where deferred probe can render
a platform broken. Both involve using a DT which has more devices and
dependencies than the kernel supports. The 1st case is a driver may be
disabled in the kernel config. The 2nd case is the kernel version may
simply not have the dependent driver. This can happen if using a newer DT
(provided by firmware perhaps) with a stable kernel version. Deferred
probe issues can be difficult to debug especially if the console has
dependencies or userspace fails to boot to a shell.

There are also cases like IOMMUs where only built-in drivers are
supported, so deferring probe after initcalls is not needed. The IOMMU
subsystem implemented its own mechanism to handle this using OF_DECLARE
linker sections.

This commit adds makes ending deferred probe conditional on initcalls
being completed or a debug timeout. Subsystems or drivers may opt-in by
calling driver_deferred_probe_check_init_done() instead of
unconditionally returning -EPROBE_DEFER. They may use additional
information from DT or kernel's config to decide whether to continue to
defer probe or not.

The timeout mechanism is intended for debug purposes and WARNs loudly.
The remaining deferred probe pending list will also be dumped after the
timeout. Not that this timeout won't work for the console which needs
to be enabled before userspace starts. However, if the console's
dependencies are resolved, then the kernel log will be printed (as
opposed to no output).
