Pull ARM updates from Russell King:
 "This is the first chunk of ARM updates for this merge window.
  Conflicts are expected in two files - asm/timex.h and
  mach-integrator/integrator_cp.c.  Nothing particularly stands out more
  than anything else.

  Most of the growth is down to the opcodes stuff from Dave Martin,
  which is countered by Rob's patches to use more of the asm-generic
  headers on ARM."

(A few more conflicts grew since then, but it all looked fairly trivial)

Pull power management updates from Rafael J Wysocki:

 - Improved system suspend/resume and runtime PM handling for the SH
   TMU, CMT and MTU2 clock event devices (also used by ARM/shmobile).

 - Generic PM domains framework extensions related to cpuidle support
   and domain objects lookup using names.

 - ARM/shmobile power management updates including improved support for
   the SH7372's A4S power domain containing the CPU core.

 - cpufreq changes related to AMD CPUs support from Matthew Garrett,
   Andre Przywara and Borislav Petkov.

 - cpu0 cpufreq driver from Shawn Guo.

 - cpufreq governor fixes related to the relaxing of limit from Michal
   Pecio.

 - OMAP cpufreq updates from Axel Lin and Richard Zhao.

 - cpuidle ladder governor fixes related to the disabling of states from
   Carsten Emde and me.

 - Runtime PM core updates related to the interactions with the system
   suspend core from Alan Stern and Kevin Hilman.

 - Wakeup sources modification allowing more helper functions to be
   called from interrupt context from John Stultz and additional
   diagnostic code from Todd Poynor.

 - System suspend error code path fix from Feng Hong.

Fixed up conflicts in cpufreq/powernow-k8 that stemmed from the
workqueue fixes conflicting fairly badly with the removal of support for
hardware P-state chips.  The changes were independent but somewhat
intertwined.

<title>ARM: kernel: update __cpu_disable to use cache LoUIS maintenance API</title>

<content type='text'>
When a CPU is hotplugged out caches that reside in its power domain
lose their contents and so must be cleaned to the next memory level.

Currently, __cpu_disable calls flush_cache_all() that for new generation
processor like A15/A7 ends up cleaning and invalidating all cache levels
up to Level of Coherency, which includes the unified L2.

This ends up being a waste of cycles since the L2 cache contents are not
lost on power down.

This patch updates __cpu_disable to use the new LoUIS API cache operations.

Remove the offset from ipi_msg_type and assume that SGI0 is the
wakeup interrupt now that all WFI hotplug users call
gic_raise_softirq() with 0 instead of 1. This allows us to
track how many wakeup interrupts are sent and also removes the
unknown IPI printk message for WFI hotplug based systems.

In order to easily detect pathological cases, print some diagnostics

This also provides helpers to detect that HYP mode is actually available,
which can be used by other subsystems to enable HYP specific features.

Almost each SMP platform defines pen_release to manage booting secondary
CPUs. This of course clashes with the single zImage effort.

Add the pen_release definition to the ARM SMP code, and remove all others.
This should only be used by platforms which lack any kind of CPU power
management...

This adds a 'struct smp_operations' to abstract the CPU initialization
and hot plugging functions on SMP systems, which otherwise conflict
in a multiplatform kernel. This also helps shmobile and potentially
others that have more than one method to do these.

To allow the kernel to continue building, the platform hooks are
defined as weak symbols which are overrided by the platform code.
Once all platforms are converted, the "weak" attribute will be
removed and the function made static.

Unlike the original version from Marc, this new version from Arnd
does not use a generalized abstraction for per-soc data structures
but only tries to solve the problem for the SMP operations. This
way, we can collapse the previous four data structures into a
single struct, which is less systematic but also easier to follow
as a causal reader.
