A quiet release for SPI, mainly driver updates and not too many of them:
- Support for dummy transfers (for delays on startup) in drivers using
transfer_one().
- Lots of enhancements to the Designware driver to support new Intel
SoCs.
- Support for newer Renesas chips.
- DMA support for the i.MX driver.
- One new driver for Broadcom BCM53xx chips.

This time around most of the changes are a lot of new drivers along with
the standard set of fixes and cleanups (thanks again largely to Axel
Lin). We do have one nice new feature in the core which factors out the
disappointingly tricky code around DT parsing, only a couple of drivers
have been converted so far:
- Factor out the code for parsing the standard bindings for a set of
regulators out of DT, making the probe part of a lot of drivers
simplier.
- New drivers for Dialog DA9213, HiSilicon HI6420, Intersil ISL9305/H,
Ricoh RN5T618, Rockchip RK808, Skyworks SKY81452, Silergy SYR82x, and
Qualcomm RPM.

The main update this time around is the addition of a standard DT
binding for specifying the endianness of devices. This allows drivers
to support any endianness of device register map without any code,
useful for configurable IP blocks.
There's also a few bug fixes that I didn't get round to sending, none of
them terribly severe or new, and a reduction in size for struct regmap.

As we may defragment the packet in IPv4 PRE_ROUTING and refragment
it after POST_ROUTING we should save the value of frag_max_size.
This is still very wrong as the bridge is supposed to leave the
packets intact, meaning that the right thing to do is to use the
original frag_list for fragmentation.
Unfortunately we don't currently guarantee that the frag_list is
left untouched throughout netfilter so until this changes this is
the best we can do.
There is also a spot in FORWARD where it appears that we can

This patch adds support for volatile writes which keep data pages in memory
until f2fs_evict_inode is called by iput.
For instance, we can use this feature for the sqlite database as follows.
While supporting atomic writes for main database file, we can keep its journal
data temporarily in the page cache by the following sequence.
1. open
-> ioctl(F2FS_IOC_START_VOLATILE_WRITE);
2. writes
: keep all the data in the page cache.
3. flush to the database file with atomic writes
a. ioctl(F2FS_IOC_START_ATOMIC_WRITE);
b. writes
c. ioctl(F2FS_IOC_COMMIT_ATOMIC_WRITE);
4. close
-> drop the cached data

One aim of commit 50100a5e39 ("tipc:
use pseudo message to wake up sockets after link congestion") was
to handle link congestion abatement in a uniform way for both unicast
and multicast transmit. However, the latter doesn't work correctly,
and has been broken since the referenced commit was applied.
If a user now sends a burst of multicast messages that is big
enough to cause broadcast link congestion, it will be put to sleep,
and not be waked up when the congestion abates as it should be.
This has two reasons. First, the flag that is used, TIPC_WAKEUP_USERS,
is set correctly, but in the wrong field. Instead of setting it in the
'action_flags' field of the arrival node struct, it is by mistake set
in the dummy node struct that is owned by the broadcast link, where it
will never tested for. Second, we cannot use the same flag for waking
up unicast and multicast users, since the function tipc_node_unlock()
needs to pick the wakeup pseudo messages to deliver from different
queues. It must hence be able to distinguish between the two cases.
This commit solves this problem by adding a new flag
TIPC_WAKEUP_BCAST_USERS, and a new function tipc_bclink_wakeup_user().
The latter is to be called by tipc_node_unlock() when the named flag,
now set in the correct field, is encountered.
v2: using explicit 'unsigned int' declaration instead of 'uint', as
per comment from David Miller.

When a channel context is removed, the hw_queue_base
is set to -1, this will result in a panic because
ath9k_chanctx_stop_queues() can be called on an interface
that is not assigned to any context yet - for example,
when trying to scan.
Fix this issue by setting the hw_queue_base to zero
when a channel context is removed.

Currently the allowed "respose rate" set (rates for HW generated frames
like ACKs) is the same as the basic rate set.
The HW will use the higher allowed response rate that is lower than the
rate of the received frame.
This is more or less what IEEE80211 mandates, but I missed the fact
that IEEE80211 also says that whenever it happens that for a modulation
class there is no any rate in the basic rates set, then the response rate
set shall include also all the mandatory rates for that modulation class.
This patch adds mandatory OFDM rates to the allowed response rate set if
no OFDM rate is included in the basic rate set.
Depending by the AP, I faced cases in which this patch seems to cause a
noticeable perfomance improvement.
- With my usual test AP there is no particular perfomance difference.
- With a prism54/hostapd AP this patch causes RX thoughput increase from
about 5Mbps to about 20Mbps.
Hopefully this patch may help people that faced performance regression wrt
the old staging driver.

Merge ipmi patches from Corey Minyard:
"These have been in linux-next for a while, ready for 3.18"
* emailed patches from Corey Minyard <minyard@acm.org>:
ipmi: Clear drvdata when interface is removed
ipmi: work around gcc-4.9 build warning
ipmi/of: Don't use unavailable interfaces
ipmi: Clean up the error handling for channel config errors
This patch fixes a bug on hotmod removing.
After ipmi interface is removed using hotmod, kernel panic occurs when
rmmod impi_si. For example, try this:
# echo "remove,"`cat /proc/ipmi/0/params` > \
/sys/module/ipmi_si/parameters/hotmod
# rmmod ipmi_si
Then, rmmod fails with the following messages.

list_del in cleanup_one_si() fails because the smi_info is already
removed when hotmod removing.
When ipmi interface is removed by hotmod, smi_info is removed by
cleanup_one_si(), but is is still set in drvdata. Therefore when rmmod
ipmi_si, ipmi_pnp_remove tries to remove it again and fails.
By this patch, a pointer to smi_info in drvdata is cleared when hotmod
removing so that it will be not accessed when rmmod.

Building ipmi on arm with gcc-4.9 results in this warning for an
allmodconfig build:
drivers/char/ipmi/ipmi_si_intf.c: In function 'ipmi_thread':

^
The warning is bogus and this case can not occur. Apparently this is a
false positive resulting from gcc getting a little smarter about
tracking assignments but not smart enough.
Marking the ipmi_thread_busy_wait function as inline gives the gcc
optimization logic enough information to figure out for itself that the
case cannot happen, which gets rid of the warning without adding any
fake initialization.

Testing xmit_more support with netperf and connected UDP sockets,
I found strange dst refcount false sharing.
Current handling of IFF_XMIT_DST_RELEASE is not optimal.
Dropping dst in validate_xmit_skb() is certainly too late in case
packet was queued by cpu X but dequeued by cpu Y
The logical point to take care of drop/force is in __dev_queue_xmit()
before even taking qdisc lock.
As Julian Anastasov pointed out, need for skb_dst() might come from some
packet schedulers or classifiers.
This patch adds new helper to cleanly express needs of various drivers
or qdiscs/classifiers.
Drivers that need skb_dst() in their ndo_start_xmit() should call
following helper in their setup instead of the prior :
dev->priv_flags &= ~IFF_XMIT_DST_RELEASE;
->
netif_keep_dst(dev);
Instead of using a single bit, we use two bits, one being
eventually rebuilt in bonding/team drivers.
The other one, is permanent and blocks IFF_XMIT_DST_RELEASE being
rebuilt in bonding/team. Eventually, we could add something
smarter later.

Drivers should avoid NETDEV_TX_BUSY as much as possible.
They should stop the tx queue before qdisc even tries to push another
packet, to avoid requeues.
For a driver supporting skb->xmit_more, this is likely to be a prereq
anyway, otherwise we could have a tx deadlock : We need to force a
doorbell if TX ring is full.

When Tx VLAN offloading is disabled frames with size ~ MTU are not
transmitted as the driver does not account 4 bytes of VLAN header added
by stack. It should use VLAN_ETH_HLEN instead of ETH_HLEN.
The second problem is with newer BNA chips (BNA 1860). These chips filter
out any VLAN tagged frames in Tx path. This is a problem when Tx VLAN
offloading is disabled and frames are tagged by stack. Older chips like
1010/1020 are not affected as they probably don't do such filtering.

o F2FS_IOC_COMMIT_ATOMIC_WRITE
The database engine should be aware of the following sequence.
1. open
-> ioctl(F2FS_IOC_START_ATOMIC_WRITE);
2. writes
: all the written data will be treated as atomic pages.
3. commit
-> ioctl(F2FS_IOC_COMMIT_ATOMIC_WRITE);
: this flushes all the data blocks to the disk, which will be shown all or
nothing by f2fs recovery procedure.
4. repeat to #2.
