Merge branch 'irq-core-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip
Pull irq updates from Ingo Molnar: "The changes in this cycle were: - Remove the irq timings/variance statistics code that tried to predict when the next interrupt would occur, which didn't work out as hoped and is replaced by another mechanism. - This new mechanism is the 'array suffix computation' estimate, which is superior to the previous one as it can detect not just a single periodic pattern, but independent periodic patterns along a log-2 scale of bucketing and exponential moving average. The comments are longer than the code - and it works better at predicting various complex interrupt patterns from real-world devices than the previous estimate. - avoid IRQ-work self-IPIs on the local CPU - fix work-list corruption in irq_set_affinity_notifier()" * 'irq-core-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip: irq_work: Do not raise an IPI when queueing work on the local CPU genirq/devres: Use struct_size() in devm_kzalloc() genirq/timings: Add array suffix computation code genirq/timings: Remove variance computation code genirq: Prevent use-after-free and work list corruption
