Pull slave-dmaengine changes from Vinod Koul:
 "This brings for slave dmaengine:

   - Change dma notification flag to DMA_COMPLETE from DMA_SUCCESS as
     dmaengine can only transfer and not verify validaty of dma
     transfers

   - Bunch of fixes across drivers:

      - cppi41 driver fixes from Daniel

      - 8 channel freescale dma engine support and updated bindings from
        Hongbo

      - msx-dma fixes and cleanup by Markus

   - DMAengine updates from Dan:

      - Bartlomiej and Dan finalized a rework of the dma address unmap
        implementation.

      - In the course of testing 1/ a collection of enhancements to
        dmatest fell out.  Notably basic performance statistics, and
        fixed / enhanced test control through new module parameters
        'run', 'wait', 'noverify', and 'verbose'.  Thanks to Andriy and
        Linus [Walleij] for their review.

      - Testing the raid related corner cases of 1/ triggered bugs in
        the recently added 16-source operation support in the ioatdma
        driver.

      - Some minor fixes / cleanups to mv_xor and ioatdma"

* 'next' of git://git.infradead.org/users/vkoul/slave-dma: (99 commits)
  dma: mv_xor: Fix mis-usage of mmio 'base' and 'high_base' registers
  dma: mv_xor: Remove unneeded NULL address check
  ioat: fix ioat3_irq_reinit
  ioat: kill msix_single_vector support
  raid6test: add new corner case for ioatdma driver
  ioatdma: clean up sed pool kmem_cache
  ioatdma: fix selection of 16 vs 8 source path
  ioatdma: fix sed pool selection
  ioatdma: Fix bug in selftest after removal of DMA_MEMSET.
  dmatest: verbose mode
  dmatest: convert to dmaengine_unmap_data
  dmatest: add a 'wait' parameter
  dmatest: add basic performance metrics
  dmatest: add support for skipping verification and random data setup

<title>mm: kill vma flag VM_RESERVED and mm-&gt;reserved_vm counter</title>

<id>314e51b9851b4f4e8ab302243ff5a6fc6147f379</id>
<content type='text'>
A long time ago, in v2.4, VM_RESERVED kept swapout process off VMA,
currently it lost original meaning but still has some effects:

 | effect                 | alternative flags
-+------------------------+---------------------------------------------
1| account as reserved_vm | VM_IO
2| skip in core dump      | VM_IO, VM_DONTDUMP
3| do not merge or expand | VM_IO, VM_DONTEXPAND, VM_HUGETLB, VM_PFNMAP
4| do not mlock           | VM_IO, VM_DONTEXPAND, VM_HUGETLB, VM_PFNMAP

This patch removes reserved_vm counter from mm_struct.  Seems like nobody
cares about it, it does not exported into userspace directly, it only
reduces total_vm showed in proc.

Thus VM_RESERVED can be replaced with VM_IO or pair VM_DONTEXPAND | VM_DONTDUMP.

remap_pfn_range() and io_remap_pfn_range() set VM_IO|VM_DONTEXPAND|VM_DONTDUMP.
remap_vmalloc_range() set VM_DONTEXPAND | VM_DONTDUMP.

<title>carma: remove unnecessary DMA_INTERRUPT capability</title>

<content type='text'>
These drivers set the DMA_INTERRUPT capability bit when requesting a DMA
controller channel. This was historical, and is no longer needed.

Recent changes to the drivers/dma/fsldma.c driver have removed support
for this flag. This makes the carma drivers unable to find a DMA channel
with the required capabilities.

Pull powerpc merge from Benjamin Herrenschmidt:
 "Here's the powerpc batch for this merge window.  It is going to be a
  bit more nasty than usual as in touching things outside of
  arch/powerpc mostly due to the big iSeriesectomy :-) We finally got
  rid of the bugger (legacy iSeries support) which was a PITA to
  maintain and that nobody really used anymore.

  Here are some of the highlights:

   - Legacy iSeries is gone.  Thanks Stephen ! There's still some bits
     and pieces remaining if you do a grep -ir series arch/powerpc but
     they are harmless and will be removed in the next few weeks
     hopefully.

   - The 'fadump' functionality (Firmware Assisted Dump) replaces the
     previous (equivalent) "pHyp assisted dump"...  it's a rewrite of a
     mechanism to get the hypervisor to do crash dumps on pSeries, the
     new implementation hopefully being much more reliable.  Thanks
     Mahesh Salgaonkar.

   - The "EEH" code (pSeries PCI error handling &amp; recovery) got a big
     spring cleaning, motivated by the need to be able to implement a
     new backend for it on top of some new different type of firwmare.

     The work isn't complete yet, but a good chunk of the cleanups is
     there.  Note that this adds a field to struct device_node which is
     not very nice and which Grant objects to.  I will have a patch soon
     that moves that to a powerpc private data structure (hopefully
     before rc1) and we'll improve things further later on (hopefully
     getting rid of the need for that pointer completely).  Thanks Gavin
     Shan.

   - I dug into our exception &amp; interrupt handling code to improve the
     way we do lazy interrupt handling (and make it work properly with
     "edge" triggered interrupt sources), and while at it found &amp; fixed
     a wagon of issues in those areas, including adding support for page
     fault retry &amp; fatal signals on page faults.

   - Your usual random batch of small fixes &amp; updates, including a bunch
     of new embedded boards, both Freescale and APM based ones, etc..."

I fixed up some conflicts with the generalized irq-domain changes from
Grant Likely, hopefully correctly.
