Here's the big staging driver tree update for 3.20-rc1. Lots of little
things in here, adding up to lots of overall cleanups. The IIO driver
updates are also in here as they cross the staging tree boundry a lot.
I2O has moved into staging as well, as a plan to drop it from the tree
eventually as that's a dead subsystem.

Here is the big staging driver pull request for 3.16-rc1.
Lots of stuff here, tons of cleanup patches, a few new drivers, and some

deleted.

Introduce gpiod_get_optional() and gpiod_get_index_optional() helpers
that make it easier for drivers to handle optional GPIOs.
Currently in order to handle optional GPIOs, a driver needs to special
case error handling for -ENOENT, such as this:
gpio = gpiod_get(dev, "foo");
if (IS_ERR(gpio)) {
if (PTR_ERR(gpio) != -ENOENT)
return PTR_ERR(gpio);
gpio = NULL;
}
if (gpio) {
/* set up GPIO */
}
With these new helpers the above is reduced to:
gpio = gpiod_get_optional(dev, "foo");
if (IS_ERR(gpio))
return PTR_ERR(gpio);
if (gpio) {
/* set up GPIO */
}
While at it, device-managed variants of these functions are also
provided.

of interesting things under review currently.
Core:
- Add devm_iio_device_register/unregister. I took some convincing on whether
there would be many devices that really were simple enough to need no
explicit actions on removal. Turns out there are some.
- Move some stray docs to above the relevant implemenation.
- Drop a redundant repeated check on the fact the trigger has actually changed
when there is a userspace attempt change it.
Drivers:

Cleanups

and ad2s1200. Note that this was proposed in a number of other drivers
and this revealed a number of missorderings in remove functions. Also for
now I have blocked this on any device that any hardware suspend suport on
the basis that we probably want to power down devices if they have no driver
support loaded.

As well as the usual driver updates and cleanups there's a few
improvements to the core here:
- The start of some improvements to factor out more of the SPI message
loop into the core. Right now this is just simplifying the code a
bit but hopefully next time around we'll also have managed to roll
out some noticable performance improvements which drivers can take
advantage of.
- Support for loading modules for ACPI enumerated SPI devices.
- Managed registration for SPI controllers.
- Helper for another common I/O pattern.

The devm_request_and_ioremap() function is very useful and helps avoid a
whole lot of boilerplate. However, one issue that keeps popping up is
its lack of a specific error code to determine which of the steps that
it performs failed. Furthermore, while the function gives an example and
suggests what error code to return on failure, a wide variety of error
codes are used throughout the tree.
In an attempt to fix these problems, this patch adds a new function that
drivers can transition to. The devm_ioremap_resource() returns a pointer
to the remapped I/O memory on success or an ERR_PTR() encoded error code
on failure. Callers can check for failure using IS_ERR() and determine
its cause by extracting the error code using PTR_ERR().
devm_request_and_ioremap() is implemented as a wrapper around the new
API and return NULL on failure as before. This ensures that backwards
compatibility is maintained until all users have been converted to the
new API, at which point the old devm_request_and_ioremap() function
should be removed.
A semantic patch is included which can be used to convert from the old
devm_request_and_ioremap() API to the new devm_ioremap_resource() API.
Some non-trivial cases may require manual intervention, though.

V3 of the early platform driver implementation.
Platform drivers are great for embedded platforms because we can separate
driver configuration from the actual driver. So base addresses,
interrupts and other configuration can be kept with the processor or board
code, and the platform driver can be reused by many different platforms.
For early devices we have nothing today. For instance, to configure early
timers and early serial ports we cannot use platform devices. This
because the setup order during boot. Timers are needed before the
platform driver core code is available. The same goes for early printk
support. Early in this case means before initcalls.
These early drivers today have their configuration either hard coded or
they receive it using some special configuration method. This is working
quite well, but if we want to support both regular kernel modules and
early devices then we need to have two ways of configuring the same
driver. A single way would be better.
The early platform driver patch is basically a set of functions that allow
drivers to register themselves and architecture code to locate them and
probe. Registration happens through early_param(). The time for the
probe is decided by the architecture code.
See Documentation/driver-model/platform.txt for more details.

Implement device resource management, in short, devres. A device
driver can allocate arbirary size of devres data which is associated
with a release function. On driver detach, release function is
invoked on the devres data, then, devres data is freed.
devreses are typed by associated release functions. Some devreses are
better represented by single instance of the type while others need
multiple instances sharing the same release function. Both usages are
supported.
devreses can be grouped using devres group such that a device driver
can easily release acquired resources halfway through initialization
or selectively release resources (e.g. resources for port 1 out of 4
ports).
This patch adds devres core including documentation and the following
managed interfaces.
* alloc/free : devm_kzalloc(), devm_kzfree()
* IO region : devm_request_region(), devm_release_region()
* IRQ : devm_request_irq(), devm_free_irq()
* DMA : dmam_alloc_coherent(), dmam_free_coherent(),
dmam_declare_coherent_memory(), dmam_pool_create(),
dmam_pool_destroy()
* PCI : pcim_enable_device(), pcim_pin_device(), pci_is_managed()
