Pull SCSI updates from James Bottomley:
 "This is primarily another round of driver updates (lpfc, bfa, fcoe,
  ipr) plus a new ufshcd driver.  There shouldn't be anything
  controversial in here (The final deletion of scsi proc_ops which
  caused some build breakage has been held over until the next merge
  window to give us more time to stabilise it).

  I'm afraid, with me moving continents at exactly the wrong time,
  anything submitted after the merge window opened has been held over to
  the next merge window."

This patch adds support for Universal Flash Storage(UFS)
host controllers. The UFS host controller driver
includes host controller initialization method.

The Initialization process involves following steps:
 - Initiate UFS Host Controller initialization process by writing
   to Host controller enable register
 - Configure UFS Host controller registers with host memory space
   datastructure offsets.
 - Unipro link startup procedure
 - Check for connected device
 - Configure UFS host controller to process requests
 - Enable required interrupts
 - Configure interrupt aggregation

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.

* 'next' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/benh/powerpc: (141 commits)

The virtio-scsi HBA is the basis of an alternative storage stack
for QEMU-based virtual machines (including KVM).  Compared to
virtio-blk it is more scalable, because it supports many LUNs
on a single PCI slot), more powerful (it more easily supports
passthrough of host devices to the guest) and more easily
extensible (new SCSI features implemented by QEMU should not
require updating the driver in the guest).

The storage driver (storvsc_drv.c) handles all block storage devices
assigned to Linux guests hosted on Hyper-V. This driver has been in the
staging tree for a while and this patch moves it out of the staging area.

James was willing to apply this patch during the 3.3-rc phase and a decision
was taken to defer this to 3.4 since Greg had queued up a bunch of storvsc
patches for 3.4. Now that Greg has applied all of the pending storvsc patches,
I am sending this patch to move this driver out of staging. Based on James'
recommendation, this patch gets rid of the unneeded files in the staging/hv
directory.

The storage driver (storvsc_drv.c) handles all block storage devices
assigned to Linux guests hosted on Hyper-V. This driver has been in the
staging tree for a while and this patch moves it out of the staging area.

James was willing to apply this patch during the 3.3-rc phase and a decision
was taken to defer this to 3.4 since Greg had queued up a bunch of storvsc
patches for 3.4. Now that Greg has applied all of the pending storvsc patches,
I am sending this patch to move this driver out of staging. Based on James'
recommendation, this patch gets rid of the unneeded files in the staging/hv
directory.

Bump the version now that the driver has atapi support and the initial
round of hotplug fixes.  The EXPERIMENTAL tag should have been removed a
while back.  While we're here also kill the "select SCSI_SAS_HOST_SMP"
as the build error was separately fixed by commit d962480e "[SCSI]
libsas: fix try_test_sas_gpio_gp_bit() build error".

* 'trivial' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mmarek/kbuild:
  scsi: drop unused Kconfig symbol

  stmmac: drop unused Kconfig symbol
  x86: drop unused Kconfig symbol
  powerpc: drop unused Kconfig symbols
  powerpc: 40x: drop unused Kconfig symbol

Fix up trivial conflict in drivers/net/ethernet/stmicro/stmmac/Kconfig
as per Michal: the STMMAC_DUAL_MAC config variable is still unused and
should be deleted.
