Here is the big set of new char/misc driver drivers and features for
4.12-rc1.
There's lots of new drivers added this time around, new firmware drivers
from Google, more auxdisplay drivers, extcon drivers, fpga drivers, and
a bunch of other driver updates. Nothing major, except if you happen to
have the hardware for these drivers, and then you will be happy :)
All of these have been in linux-next for a while with no reported
issues.

With the recent introduction of per-channel tasklet, we need to update
the way we handle the 3 concurrency issues:
1. hv_process_channel_removal -> percpu_channel_deq vs.
vmbus_chan_sched -> list_for_each_entry(..., percpu_list);
2. vmbus_process_offer -> percpu_channel_enq/deq vs. vmbus_chan_sched.
3. vmbus_close_internal vs. the per-channel tasklet vmbus_on_event;
The first 2 issues can be handled by Stephen's recent patch
"vmbus: use rcu for per-cpu channel list", and the third issue
can be handled by calling tasklet_disable in vmbus_close_internal here.
We don't need the original hv_event_tasklet_disable/enable since we
now use per-channel tasklet instead of the previous per-CPU tasklet,
and actually we must remove them due to the side effect now:
vmbus_process_offer -> hv_event_tasklet_enable -> tasklet_schedule will
start the per-channel callback prematurely, cauing NULL dereferencing
(the channel may haven't been properly configured to run the callback yet).

Previously, we were assuming that each IC protocol version was tied to a
specific host version. For example, some Windows 10 preview hosts only
support v3 TimeSync even though driver assumes v4 is supported by all
Windows 10 hosts.
The guest will stop trying to negotiate even though older supported
versions may still be offered by the host.
Make IC version negotiation more robust by going through all versions
that are supported by the guest.

Commit a389fcfd2c ("Drivers: hv: vmbus: Fix signaling logic in
hv_need_to_signal_on_read()")
added the proper mb(), but removed the test "prev_write_sz < pending_sz"
when making the signal decision.
As a result, the guest can signal the host unnecessarily,
and then the host can throttle the guest because the host
thinks the guest is buggy or malicious; finally the user
running stress test can perceive intermittent freeze of
the guest.
This patch brings back the test, and properly handles the
in-place consumption APIs used by NetVSC (see get_next_pkt_raw(),
put_pkt_raw() and commit_rd_index()).

Introduce a mechanism to control how channels will be affinitized. We will
support two policies:
1. HV_BALANCED: All performance critical channels will be dstributed
evenly amongst all the available NUMA nodes. Once the Node is assigned,
we will assign the CPU based on a simple round robin scheme.
2. HV_LOCALIZED: Only the primary channels are distributed across all
NUMA nodes. Sub-channels will be in the same NUMA node as the primary
channel. This is the current behaviour.
The default policy will be the HV_BALANCED as it can minimize the remote
memory access on NUMA machines with applications that span NUMA nodes.

On Hyper-V, performance critical channels use the monitor
mechanism to signal the host when the guest posts mesages
for the host. This mechanism minimizes the hypervisor intercepts
and also makes the host more efficient in that each time the
host is woken up, it processes a batch of messages as opposed to
just one. The goal here is improve the throughput and this is at
the expense of increased latency.

There is a rare race when we remove an entry from the global list

percpu_channel_deq() -> list_del(): at this time, if vmbus_on_event() ->
process_chn_event() -> pcpu_relid2channel() is trying to query the list,
we can get the kernel fault.
Similarly, we also have the issue in the code path: vmbus_process_offer() ->
percpu_channel_enq().
We can resolve the issue by disabling the tasklet when updating the list.
The patch also moves vmbus_release_relid() to a later place where
the channel has been removed from the per-cpu and the global lists.

Implement APIs for in-place consumption of vmbus packets. Currently, each
packet is copied and processed one at a time and as part of processing
each packet we potentially may signal the host (if it is waiting for
room to produce a packet).
These APIs help batched in-place processing of vmbus packets.
We also optimize host signaling by having a separate API to signal
the end of in-place consumption. With netvsc using these APIs,
on an iperf run on average I see about 20X reduction in checks to
