clk: meson: meson8b: add compatibles for Meson8 and Meson8m2

2018-04-13T17:48:28+00:00

[ Upstream commit 855f06a1009faabb0c6a3e9b49d115496d325856 ]

The clock controller on Meson8, Meson8b and Meson8m2 is very similar
based on the code from the Amlogic GPL kernel sources. Add separate
compatibles for each SoC to make sure that we can easily implement
all the small differences for each SoC later on.

In general the Meson8 and Meson8m2 seem to be almost identical as they
even share the same mach-meson8 directory in Amlogic's GPL kernel
sources.
The main clocks on Meson8, Meson8b and Meson8m2 are very similar,
because they are all using the same PLL values, 90% of the clock gates
are the same (the actual diffstat of the mach-meson8/clock.c and
mach-meson8b/clock.c files is around 30 to 40 lines, when excluding
all commented out code).
The difference between the Meson8 and Meson8b clock gates seem to be:
- Meson8 has AIU_PCLK, HDMI_RX, VCLK2_ENCT, VCLK2_ENCL, UART3,
  CSI_DIG_CLKIN gates which don't seem to be available on Meson8b
- the gate on Meson8 for bit 7 seems to be named "_1200XXX" instead
  of "PERIPHS_TOP" (on Meson8b)
- Meson8b has a SANA gate which doesn't seem to exist on Meson8 (or
  on Meson8 the same bit is used by the UART3 gate in Amlogic's GPL
  kernel sources)
None of these gates is added for now, since it's unclear whether these
definitions are actually correct (the VCLK2_ENCT gate for example is
defined, but only used in some commented block).

The main difference between all three SoCs seem to be the video (VPU)
clocks. Apart from different supported clock rates (according to vpu.c
in mach-meson8 and mach-meson8b from Amlogic's GPL kernel sources) the
most notable difference is that Meson8m2 has a GP_PLL clock and a mux
(probably the same as on the Meson GX SoCs) to support glitch-free
(clock rate) switching.
None of these VPU clocks are not supported by our mainline meson8b
clock driver yet though.

dt-bindings: display: sun4i: Add allwinner,tcon-channel property

2018-04-13T17:48:15+00:00

[ Upstream commit 22662f12768f971809b478386d9cc4947d00497a ]

The Allwinner Timings Controller has two, mutually exclusive, channels.
When the binding has been introduced, it was assumed that there would be
only a single user per channel in the system.

While this is likely for the channel 0 which only connects to LCD displays,
it turns out that the channel 1 can be connected to multiple controllers in
the SoC (HDMI and TV encoders for example). And while the simultaneous use
of HDMI and TV outputs cannot be achieved, switching from one to the other
at runtime definitely sounds plausible.

Add an extra property, allwinner,tcon-channel, to specify for a given
endpoint which TCON channel it is connected to, while falling back to the
previous mechanism if that property is missing.

Documentation: pinctrl: palmas: Add ti,palmas-powerhold-override property definition

2018-04-08T10:12:59+00:00

commit 0ea66f76ba17a4b229caaadd77de694111b21769 upstream.

GPIO7 is configured in POWERHOLD mode which has higher priority
over DEV_ON bit and keeps the PMIC supplies on even after the DEV_ON
bit is turned off. This property enables driver to over ride the
POWERHOLD value to GPIO7 so as to turn off the PMIC in power off
scenarios.

omapdrm: panel: fix compatible vendor string for td028ttec1

[ Upstream commit c1b9d4c75cd549e08bd0596d7f9dcc20f7f6e8fa ]

The vendor name was "toppoly" but other panels and the vendor list
have defined it as "tpo". So let's fix it in driver and bindings.

We keep the old definition in parallel to stay compatible with
potential older DTB setup.

dt-bindings: mfd: axp20x: Add "xpowers,master-mode" property for AXP806 PMICs

2018-03-24T10:00:16+00:00

[ Upstream commit 8461cf20d17e0090e9236b73d25b31be4f7fadc5 ]

commit b101829a029a ("mfd: axp20x: Fix AXP806 access errors on cold boot")
was intended to fix the case where a board uses an AXP806 in slave mode,
but the boot loader leaves it in master mode for lack of AXP806 support.
But now the driver breaks on boards where the PMIC is operating in master
mode. To let the device tree describe which mode of operation is needed,
this patch introduces a new property "xpowers,master-mode".

commit cdd10409914184c7eee5ae3e11beb890c9c16c61 upstream.

The "dmas" cells for the designware DMA controller need to have only 3
properties apart from the phandle: request line, src master and
destination master. But the commit 6e8887f60f60 updated it incorrectly
while moving from platform code to DT. Fix it.

x86/paravirt: Remove 'noreplace-paravirt' cmdline option

2018-02-13T11:36:01+00:00

(cherry picked from commit 12c69f1e94c89d40696e83804dd2f0965b5250cd)

The 'noreplace-paravirt' option disables paravirt patching, leaving the
original pv indirect calls in place.

That's highly incompatible with retpolines, unless we want to uglify
paravirt even further and convert the paravirt calls to retpolines.

As far as I can tell, the option doesn't seem to be useful for much
other than introducing surprising corner cases and making the kernel
vulnerable to Spectre v2.  It was probably a debug option from the early
paravirt days.  So just remove it.
