Pull AVR32 removal from Hans-Christian Noren Egtvedt:
"This will remove support for AVR32 architecture from the kernel and
clean away the most obvious architecture related parts. Removing dead
code in drivers is the next step"
Notes from previous discussion about this:
"The AVR32 architecture is not keeping up with the development of the
kernel, and since it shares so much of the drivers with Atmel ARM SoC,
it is starting to hinder these drivers to develop swiftly.
Also, all AVR32 AP7 SoC processors are end of lifed from Atmel (now
Microchip).
Finally, the GCC toolchain is stuck at version 4.2.x, and has not
received any patches since the last release from Atmel;
4.2.4-atmel.1.1.3.avr32linux.1.
When building kernel v4.10, this toolchain is no longer able to
properly link the network stack.
Haavard and I have came to the conclusion that we feel keeping AVR32
on life support offers more obstacles for Atmel ARMs, than it gives
joy to AVR32 users. I also suspect there are very few AVR32 users left
today, if anybody at all"
That discussion was acked by Andy Shevchenko, Boris Brezillon, Nicolas
Ferre, and Haavard Skinnemoen.
* 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/egtvedt/linux-avr32:
mm: remove AVR32 arch special handling in mm/Kconfig
lib: remove check for AVR32 arch in test_user_copy
lib: remove AVR32 entry in Kconfig.debug compile with frame pointers
scripts: remove AVR32 support from checkstack.pl
docs: remove all references to AVR32 architecture
avr32: remove support for AVR32 architecture
Starting from gcc-5.4+ gcc generates MLX instructions in more cases to
refer local symbols:
https://gcc.gnu.org/PR60465
That caused ia64 module loader to choke on such instructions:
fuse: invalid slot number 1 for IMM64
The Linux kernel used to handle only case where relocation pointed to
slot=2 instruction in the bundle. That limitation was fixed in linux by
commit 9c184a073b ("[IA64] Fix 2.6 kernel for the new ia64 assembler")
See
http://sources.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=1433
This change lifts the slot=2 restriction from the kernel module loader.
Tested on 'fuse' and 'btrfs' kernel modules.

Pull power management updates from Rafael Wysocki:
"This time the majority of changes go to the cpufreq subsystem (and to
the intel_pstate driver in particular) and there are some updates in
the generic power domains framework, cpuidle, tools and a couple of
other places.
One thing worth mentioning is that the intel_pstate's sysfs interface
has been reworked to be more consistent with the general expectations
of the cpufreq core and less confusing, hopefully for the better.
Also, we have a new cpufreq driver for Tegra186 and new hardware
support in intel_pstata and the Mediatek cpufreq driver.
Apart from that, the AnalyzeSuspend utility for system suspend
profiling gets a companion called AnalyzeBoot for the analogous
profiling of system boot and they both go into one place under
tools/power/pm-graph/.
The rest is mostly fixes, cleanups and code reorganization.

was initially a fork of CFQ, but subsequently changed to implement
fairness based on B-WF2Q+, a modified variant of WF2Q. BFQ is meant
to be used on desktop type single drives, providing good fairness.
From Paolo.
- Add Kyber IO scheduler. This is a full multiqueue aware scheduler,
using a scalable token based algorithm that throttles IO based on
live completion IO stats, similary to blk-wbt. From Omar.
- A series from Jan, moving users to separately allocated backing
devices. This continues the work of separating backing device life
times, solving various problems with hot removal.

'pblk' target that exposes an open channel SSD as a physical block
device.
- A series of fixes and improvements for nbd from Josef.
- A series from Omar, removing queue sharing between devices on mostly
legacy drivers. This helps us clean up other bits, if we know that a
queue only has a single device backing. This has been overdue for
more than a decade.
- Fixes for the blk-stats, and improvements to unify the stats and user
windows. This both improves blk-wbt, and enables other users to
register a need to receive IO stats for a device. From Omar.
- blk-throttle improvements from Shaohua. This provides a scalable
framework for implementing scalable priotization - particularly for
blk-mq, but applicable to any type of block device. The interface is
marked experimental for now.
- Bucketized IO stats for IO polling from Stephen Bates. This improves
efficiency of polled workloads in the presence of mixed block size
IO.
- A few fixes for opal, from Scott.
- A few pulls for NVMe, including a lot of fixes for NVMe-over-fabrics.

This patch drops support for AVR32 architecture from the Linux kernel.
The AVR32 architecture is not keeping up with the development of the
kernel, and since it shares so much of the drivers with Atmel ARM SoC,
it is starting to hinder these drivers to develop swiftly.
Also, all AVR32 AP7 SoC processors are end of lifed from Atmel (now
Microchip).
Finally, the GCC toolchain is stuck at version 4.2.x, and has not
received any patches since the last release from Atmel;
4.2.4-atmel.1.1.3.avr32linux.1. When building kernel v4.10, this
toolchain is no longer able to properly link the network stack.
Haavard and I have came to the conclusion that we feel keeping AVR32 on
life support offers more obstacles for Atmel ARMs, than it gives joy to
AVR32 users. I also suspect there are very few AVR32 users left today,
if anybody at all.

* 'sched-urgent-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip:
sched/cputime: Fix ksoftirqd cputime accounting regression
Newer hardware has uncovered a bug in the software implementation of
using MWAITX for the delay function. A value of 0 for the timer is meant
to indicate that a timeout will not be used to exit MWAITX. On newer
hardware this can result in MWAITX never returning, resulting in NMI
soft lockup messages being printed. On older hardware, some of the other
conditions under which MWAITX can exit masked this issue. The AMD APM
does not currently document this and will be updated.
Please refer to http://marc.info/?l=kvm&m=148950623231140 for
information regarding NMI soft lockup messages on an AMD Ryzen 1800X.
This has been root-caused as a 0 passed to MWAITX causing it to wait
indefinitely.
This change has the added benefit of avoiding the unnecessary setup of
MONITORX/MWAITX when the delay value is zero.

the SCSI code accomodates for this by passing a read-writable buffer
userspace applications don't cater for this behavior. In fact it can

Pull networking fixes from David Miller:
"Just a couple more stragglers, I really hope this is it.
1) Don't let frags slip down into the GRO segmentation handlers, from
Steffen Klassert.
2) Truesize under-estimation triggers warnings in TCP over loopback
with socket filters, 2 part fix from Eric Dumazet.
3) Fix undesirable reset of bonding MTU to ETH_HLEN on slave removal,
from Paolo Abeni.
4) If we flush the XFRM policy after garbage collection, it doesn't
work because stray entries can be created afterwards. Fix from Xin
Long.
5) Hung socket connection fixes in TIPC from Parthasarathy Bhuvaragan.
6) Fix GRO regression with IPSEC when netfilter is disabled, from
Sabrina Dubroca.
7) Fix cpsw driver Kconfig dependency regression, from Arnd Bergmann"
