58cf279aca GPIO bulk updates for the v4.5 kernel cycle:
Infrastructural changes:
 
 - In struct gpio_chip, rename the .dev node to .parent to better reflect
   the fact that this is not the GPIO struct device abstraction. We will
   add that soon so this would be totallt confusing.
 
 - It was noted that the driver .get_value() callbacks was
   sometimes reporting negative -ERR values to the gpiolib core, expecting
   them to be propagated to consumer gpiod_get_value() and gpio_get_value()
   calls. This was not happening, so as there was a mess of drivers
   returning negative errors and some returning "anything else than zero"
   to indicate that a line was active. As some would have bit 31 set to
   indicate "line active" it clashed with negative error codes. This is
   fixed by the largeish series clamping values in all drivers with
   !!value to [0,1] and then augmenting the code to propagate error codes
   to consumers. (Includes some ACKed patches in other subsystems.)
 
 - Add a void *data pointer to struct gpio_chip. The container_of() design
   pattern is indeed very nice, but we want to reform the struct gpio_chip
   to be a non-volative, stateless business, and keep states internal to
   the gpiolib to be able to hold on to the state when adding a proper
   userspace ABI (character device) further down the road. To achieve this,
   drivers need a handle at the internal state that is not dependent on
   their struct gpio_chip() so we add gpiochip_add_data() and
   gpiochip_get_data() following the pattern of many other subsystems.
   All the "use gpiochip data pointer" patches transforms drivers to this
   scheme.
 
 - The Generic GPIO chip header has been merged into the general
   <linux/gpio/driver.h> header, and the custom header for that removed.
   Instead of having a separate mm_gpio_chip struct for these generic
   drivers, merge that into struct gpio_chip, simplifying the code and
   removing the need for separate and confusing includes.
 
 Misc improvements:
 
 - Stabilize the way GPIOs are looked up from the ACPI legacy
   specification.
 
 - Incremental driver features for PXA, PCA953X, Lantiq (patches from the
   OpenWRT community), RCAR, Zynq, PL061, 104-idi-48
 
 New drivers:
 
 - Add a GPIO chip to the ALSA SoC AC97 driver.
 
 - Add a new Broadcom NSP SoC driver (this lands in the pinctrl dir, but
   the branch is merged here too to account for infrastructural changes).
 
 - The sx150x driver now supports the sx1502.

Merge tag 'gpio-v4.5-1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/linusw/linux-gpio

Pull GPIO updates from Linus Walleij:
 "Here is the bulk of GPIO changes for v4.5.

  Notably there are big refactorings mostly by myself, aimed at getting
  the gpio_chip into a shape that makes me believe I can proceed to
  preserve state for a proper userspace ABI (character device) that has
  already been proposed once, but resulted in the feedback that I need
  to go back and restructure stuff.  So I've been restructuring stuff.
  On the way I ran into brokenness (return code from the get_value()
  callback) and had to fix it.  Also, refactored generic GPIO to be
  simpler.

  Some of that is still waiting to trickle down from the subsystems all
  over the kernel that provide random gpio_chips, I've touched every
  single GPIO driver in the kernel now, oh man I didn't know I was
  responsible for so much...

  Apart from that we're churning along as usual.

  I took some effort to test and retest so it should merge nicely and we
  shook out a couple of bugs in -next.

  Infrastructural changes:

   - In struct gpio_chip, rename the .dev node to .parent to better
     reflect the fact that this is not the GPIO struct device
     abstraction.  We will add that soon so this would be totallt

f7d6236696 mfd: htc-egpio: Be sure to clamp return value
As we want gpio_chip .get() calls to be able to return negative
error codes and propagate to drivers, we need to go over all
drivers and make sure their return values are clamped to [0,1].
We do this by using the ret = !!(val) design pattern.

58383c7842 gpio: change member .dev to .parent
The name .dev in a struct is normally reserved for a struct device
that is let us say a superclass to the thing described by the struct.
struct gpio_chip stands out by confusingly using a struct device *dev
to point to the parent device (such as a platform_device) that
represents the hardware. As we want to give gpio_chip:s real devices,
this is not working. We need to rename this member to parent.

This was done by two coccinelle scripts, I guess it is possible to
combine them into one, but I don't know such stuff. They look like
this:

@@
struct gpio_chip *var;
@@
-var->dev
+var->parent

and:

@@
struct gpio_chip var;
@@
-var.dev
+var.parent

and:

@@
struct bgpio_chip *var;
@@
-var->gc.dev
+var->gc.parent

Plus a few instances of bgpio that I couldn't figure out how
to teach Coccinelle to rewrite.

This patch hits all over the place, but I *strongly* prefer this
solution to any piecemal approaches that just exercise patch
mechanics all over the place. It mainly hits drivers/gpio and
drivers/pinctrl which is my own backyard anyway.

bd0b9ac405 genirq: Remove irq argument from irq flow handlers
Most interrupt flow handlers do not use the irq argument. Those few
which use it can retrieve the irq number from the irq descriptor.

Remove the argument.

9bd09f345e mfd: Kill off set_irq_flags usage
set_irq_flags is ARM specific with custom flags which have genirq
equivalents. Convert drivers to use the genirq interfaces directly, so we
can kill off set_irq_flags. The translation of flags is as follows:

IRQF_VALID -> !IRQ_NOREQUEST
IRQF_PROBE -> !IRQ_NOPROBE
IRQF_NOAUTOEN -> IRQ_NOAUTOEN

For IRQs managed by an irqdomain, the irqdomain core code handles clearing
and setting IRQ_NOREQUEST already, so there is no need to do this in
.map() functions and we can simply remove the set_irq_flags calls. Some
users also modify IRQ_NOPROBE and this has been maintained although it
is not clear that is really needed. There appears to be a great deal of
blind copy and paste of this code.

5a0e3ad6af include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking implicit slab.h inclusion from percpu.h
percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being
included when building most .c files.  percpu.h includes slab.h which
in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files
universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies.

percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed.  Prepare for
this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those
headers directly instead of assuming availability.  As this conversion
needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is
used as the basis of conversion.

  http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py

The script does the followings.

* Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that
  only the necessary includes are there.  ie. if only gfp is used,
  gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h.

* When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include
  blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms
  to its surrounding.  It's put in the include block which contains
  core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered -
  alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there
  doesn't seem to be any matching order.

* If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly
  because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out
  an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the
  file.

The conversion was done in the following steps.

1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly
   over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h
   and ~3000 slab.h inclusions.  The script emitted errors for ~400
   files.

2. Each error was manually checked.  Some didn't need the inclusion,
   some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or
   embedding .c file was more appropriate for others.  This step added
   inclusions to around 150 files.

3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits
   from #2 to make sure no file was left behind.

4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed.
   e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab
   APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually.

5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically
   editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h
   files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell.  Most gfp.h
   inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually
   wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros.  Each
   slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as
   necessary.

6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h.

7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures
   were fixed.  CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my
   distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few
   more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things
   build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq).

   * x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config.
   * powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig
   * sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig
   * ia64 SMP allmodconfig
   * s390 SMP allmodconfig
   * alpha SMP allmodconfig
   * um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig

8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as
   a separate patch and serve as bisection point.

Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step
6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch.
If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch
headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of
the specific arch.

9301975ec2 Merge branch 'genirq-v28-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/linux-2.6-tip
This merges branches irq/genirq, irq/sparseirq-v4, timers/hpet-percpu
and x86/uv.

The sparseirq branch is just preliminary groundwork: no sparse IRQs are
actually implemented by this tree anymore - just the new APIs are added
while keeping the old way intact as well (the new APIs map 1:1 to
irq_desc[]).  The 'real' sparse IRQ support will then be a relatively
small patch ontop of this - with a v2.6.29 merge target.

GPIOs claimed by kernel code may be exported by its owner using a new
gpio_export() call, which should be most useful for driver debugging.
Such exports may optionally be done without a "direction" attribute.

Userspace may ask to take over a GPIO by writing to a sysfs control file,
helping to cope with incomplete board support or other "one-off"
requirements that don't merit full kernel support:

  echo 23 > /sys/class/gpio/export
	... will gpio_request(23, "sysfs") and gpio_export(23);
	use /sys/class/gpio/gpio-23/direction to (re)configure it,
	when that GPIO can be used as both input and output.
  echo 23 > /sys/class/gpio/unexport
	... will gpio_free(23), when it was exported as above

The extra D-space footprint is a few hundred bytes, except for the sysfs
resources associated with each exported GPIO.  The additional I-space
footprint is about two thirds of the current size of gpiolib (!).  Since
no /dev node creation is involved, no "udev" support is needed.

Related changes:

  * This adds a device pointer to "struct gpio_chip".  When GPIO
    providers initialize that, sysfs gpio class devices become children of
    that device instead of being "virtual" devices.

  * The (few) gpio_chip providers which have such a device node have
    been updated.

  * Some gpio_chip drivers also needed to update their module "owner"
    field ...  for which missing kerneldoc was added.

  * Some gpio_chips don't support input GPIOs.  Those GPIOs are now
    flagged appropriately when the chip is registered.

Based on previous patches, and discussion both on and off LKML.

A Documentation/ABI/testing/sysfs-gpio update is ready to submit once this
merges to mainline.

a1635b8fe5 [ARM] 4947/1: htc-egpio, a driver for GPIO/IRQ expanders with fixed input/output pins
implemented in CPLD chips on several HTC devices.

The original driver was written by Kevin O'Connor, I have adapted it to
use gpiolib and made the bus/register widths configurable.
