Reduced Serial Bus (RSB) is an Allwinner proprietery interface
used to communicate with PMICs and other peripheral ICs.

RSB is a two-wire push-pull serial bus that supports 1 master
device and up to 15 active slave devices.

Pull ARM SoC driver updates from Olof Johansson:
 "Driver updates for v4.1.  Some of these are for drivers/soc, where we
  find more and more SoC-specific drivers these days.  Some are for
  other driver subsystems where we have received acks from the
  appropriate maintainers.

  The larger parts of this branch are:

   - MediaTek support for their PMIC wrapper interface, a high-level
     interface for talking to the system PMIC over a dedicated I2C
     interface.

   - Qualcomm SCM driver has been moved to drivers/firmware.  It's used
     for CPU up/down and needs to be in a shared location for arm/arm64
     common code.

   - cleanup of ARM-CCI PMU code.

   - another set of cleanusp to the OMAP GPMC code"

<title>MIPS: Add CDMM bus support</title>

<id>8286ae03308c6f97f346f9f8cb9174b04969add5</id>
<content type='text'>
Add MIPS Common Device Memory Map (CDMM) support in the form of a bus in
the standard Linux device model. Each device attached via CDMM is
discoverable via an 8-bit type identifier and may contain a number of
blocks of memory mapped registers in the CDMM region. IRQs are expected
to be handled separately.

Due to the per-cpu (per-VPE for MT cores) nature of the CDMM devices,
all the driver callbacks take place from workqueues which are run on the
right CPU for the device in question, so that the driver doesn't need to
be as concerned about which CPU it is running on. Callbacks also exist
for when CPUs are taken offline, so that any per-CPU resources used by
the driver can be disabled so they don't get forcefully migrated. CDMM
devices are created as children of the CPU device they are attached to.

Any existing CDMM configuration by the bootloader will be inherited,
however platforms wishing to enable CDMM should implement the weak
mips_cdmm_phys_base() function (see asm/cdmm.h) so that the bus driver
knows where it should put the CDMM region in the physical address space
if the bootloader hasn't already enabled it.

A mips_cdmm_early_probe() function is also provided to allow early boot
or particularly low level code to set up the CDMM region and probe for a
specific device type, for example early console or KGDB IO drivers for
the EJTAG Fast Debug Channel (FDC) CDMM device.

Add a driver for transparent busses that don't need a real driver, but
where the bus controller is part of a PM domain, or under the control of
a functional clock.  Typically, the bus controller's PM domain and/or
clock must be enabled for child devices connected to the bus (either
on-SoC or externally) to function.

Hence the sole purpose of this driver is to enable its clock and PM
domain (if exist(s)), which are specified in the DT and managed from
platform and PM domain code, and to probe for child devices.

Due to the child-parent relationship with devices connected to the bus,
PM domain and clock state transitions are handled in the correct order.

Currently works with CCN-504 only, although there should be
no changes required for CCN-508 (just impossible to test it now).

Pull ARM SoC driver changes from Olof Johansson:
 "SoC-near driver changes that we're merging through our tree.  Mostly
  because they depend on other changes we have staged, but in some cases
  because the driver maintainers preferred that we did it this way.

  This contains a largeish cleanup series of the omap_l3_noc bus driver,
  cpuidle rework for Exynos, some reset driver conversions and a long
  branch of TI EDMA fixes and cleanups, with more to come next release.

  The TI EDMA cleanups is a shared branch with the dmaengine tree, with
  a handful of Davinci-specific fixes on top.

  After discussion at last year's KS (and some more on the mailing
  lists), we are here adding a drivers/soc directory.  The purpose of
  this is to keep per-vendor shared code that's needed by different
  drivers but that doesn't fit into the MFD (nor drivers/platform)
  model.  We expect to keep merging contents for this hierarchy through
  arm-soc so we can keep an eye on what the vendors keep adding here and
  not making it a free-for-all to shove in crazy stuff"

<title>bus: add Broadcom GISB bus arbiter timeout/error handler</title>

<id>44127b771d9c31dcb5ab90d9093a4d48877738bc</id>
<content type='text'>
This patch adds support for the Broadcom GISB arbiter bus timeout/error
handler. GISB is a proprietary bus used by Broadcom Set Top Box
System-on-a-chip devices (BCM7xxx) which allows multiple masters and
clients to be interfaced with each other.

The bus arbiter offers support for generating two interrupts towards the
host CPU, thus allowing us to "catch" clock gated masters, or masters
being volontarily blocked for powersaving purposes, or do general system
troubleshooting.

We also register a hook with the ARM fault exception handling to allow
printing a more informative message than "imprecise external abort at
0x00000000" for instance.

Components of the Versatile Express platform (configuration
microcontrollers on motherboard and daughterboards in particular)
talk to each other over a custom configuration bus. They
provide miscellaneous functions (from clock generator control
to energy sensors) which are represented as platform devices
(and Device Tree nodes). The transactions on the bus can
be generated by different "bridges" in the system, some
of which are universal for the whole platform (for the price
of high transfer latencies), others restricted to a subsystem
(but much faster).

Until now drivers for such functions were using custom "func"
API, which is being replaced in this patch by regmap calls.
This required:

* a rework (and move to drivers/bus directory, as suggested
  by Samuel and Arnd) of the config bus core, which is much
  simpler now and uses device model infrastructure (class)
  to keep track of the bridges; non-DT case (soon to be
  retired anyway) is simply covered by a special device
  registration function

* the new config-bus driver also takes over device population,
  so there is no need for special matching table for
  of_platform_populate nor "simple-bus" hack in the arm64
  model dtsi file (relevant bindings documentation has
  been updated); this allows all the vexpress devices
  fit into normal device model, making it possible
  to remove plenty of early inits and other hacks in
  the near future

* adaptation of the syscfg bridge implementation in the
  sysreg driver, again making it much simpler; there is
  a special case of the "energy" function spanning two
  registers, where they should be both defined in the tree
  now, but backward compatibility is maintained in the code

* modification of the relevant drivers:

  * hwmon - just a straight-forward API change
  * power/reset driver - API change
  * regulator - API change plus error handling
    simplification
  * osc clock driver - this one required larger rework
    in order to turn in into a standard platform driver

Pull ARM SoC device tree changes from Arnd Bergmann:
 "These changes from 30 individual branches for the most part update
  device tree files, but there are also a few source code changes that
  have crept in this time, usually in order to atomically move over a
  driver from using hardcoded data to DT probing.

  A number of platforms change their DT files to use the C preprocessor,
  which is causing a bit of churn, but that is hopefully only this once"
