Pull LED subsystem updates from Jacek Anaszewski:
 "Besides regular driver updates, we introduce a portion of LED core
  improvements, that allow to avoid the need for using work queues in
  the LED class drivers, that set brightness in a blocking way.

  Affected LED class drivers are being optimized accordingly.

   - LED core improvements:
        - use EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL consistently,
        - add two new LED_BLINK_ flags,
        - rename brightness_set_sync op to brightness_set_blocking,
        - add led_set_brightness_nosleep{nopm} functions,
        - use set_brightness_work for the blocking op,
        - drivers shouldn't enforce SYNC/ASYNC brightness setting,
        - turn off the LED and wait for completion on unregistering LED
          class device,
        - add managed version of led_trigger_register,
        - add description of brightness setting API to the LED class doc.

   - Remove work queues from drivers: leds-tlc591xx, leds-88pm860x, leds-adp5520,
        leds-bd2802, leds-blinkm, leds-lm3533, leds-lm3642, leds-pca9532,
        leds-lp3944, leds-lp55xx, leds-lp8788, leds-lp8860, leds-pca955x,
        leds-pca963x, leds-wm831x, leds-da903x, leds-da9052, leds-dac124d085,
        leds-lt3593, leds-max8997, leds-mc13783, leds-regulator, leds-wm8350,
        leds-max77693, leds-aat1290, leds-ktd2692, leds-gpio, leds-pwm,
        leds-lm355x, leds-ns2.

   - Replace brightness_set op with a new brightness_set_blocking op to
     make the drivers compatible with led triggers: leds-ipaq-micro,
     leds-powernv.

   - Add missing of_node_put: leds-ktd2692, leds-aat1290, leds-max77693.

   - Make the driver explicitly non-modular: ledtrig-cpu,
     ledtrig-ide-disk, leds-syscon.

   - Improvements to leds-bcm6328:
        - reuse bcm6328_led_set() instead of copying its functionality,
        - swap LED ON and OFF definitions,
        - improve blink support,
        - simplify duplicated unlock in bcm6328_blink_set,
        - add little endian support,
        - remove unneded lock when checking initial LED status,
        - add HAS_IOMEM dependency,
        - code cleaning.

   - Improvements to leds-bcm6358:
        - use bcm6358_led_set() in order to get rid of the lock,
        - merge bcm6358_led_mode and bcm6358_led_set,
        - add little endian support,
        - remove unneded lock when checking initial LED status,
        - add HAS_IOMEM dependency,
        - remove unneeded busy status check.

   - Call led_pwm_set() in leds-pwm to enforce default LED_OFF.

   - Fix duration to be msec instead of jiffies: ledtrig-transient.

   - Removing NULL check: leds-powernv.

   - Use platform_register/unregister_drivers(): leds-sunfire.

   - Fix module license specification: ledtrig-oneshot.

   - Fix driver description and make license match the header: leds-pwm.

   - Remove checking for state < 1 in flash_strobe_store():
     led-class-flash.

   - Use led_set_brightness_sync for torch brightness:
     v4l2-flash-led-class"

Pull regmap updates from Mark Brown:
 "There's no real overall theme to the regmap changes for this release,

   - Support for 64 bit registers, mainly for MMIO use, from Xiubo Li.

   - Support for trigger type configuration for regmap-irq from Laxman
     Dewangan.

   - Use native physical I/O for MMIO register maps to avoid confusion
     with the conversions that readl() and writel() do to little endian
     on big endian systems (with some DT updates to fix some workarounds
     people were doing), code from Simon Arlott.

Pull pin control updates from Linus Walleij:
 "This is the bulk of pin control patches for the v4.5 series.

  Notably I have a patch to driver core from Stephen Boyd in the pull
  request, this has been ACKed by Greg so it should be OK.  The internal
  API needed some tweaking to allow modular Qualcomm pin controllers.

  There is a bit of development history in here but it should all add up
  nicely and has boiled in linux-next.  For example I merged in v4.4-rc5
  to get rid of some nasty merge conflicts.

  Summary:

   - New drivers:
      - PXA2xx pin controller support
      - Broadcom NSP pin controller support

   - New subdrivers:
      - Samsung EXYNOS5410 support
      - Qualcomm MSM8996 support
      - Qualcomm PM8994 support
      - Qualcomm PM8994 MPP support
      - Allwinner sunxi H3 support
      - Allwinner sunxi A80 support
      - Rockchip RK3228 support

   - Rename the Cygnus pinctrl driver to "iproc" as it is more generic
     than was originally thought.

   - A bunch of Lantiq/Xway updates especially from the OpenWRT people.

   - Several refactorings for the Super-H SH PFC pin controllers.
     Adding SCIF_CLK support.

   - Several fixes to the Atlas 7 driver.

   - Various fixes all over the place"

   - Introduce the 'perf stat record/report' workflow:

     Generate perf.data files from 'perf stat', to tap into the
     scripting capabilities perf has instead of defining a 'perf stat'
     specific scripting support to calculate event ratios, etc.

     Simple example:

        $ perf stat record -e cycles usleep 1

         Performance counter stats for 'usleep 1':

               1,134,996      cycles

             0.000670644 seconds time elapsed

        $ perf stat report

         Performance counter stats for '/home/acme/bin/perf stat record -e cycles usleep 1':

               1,134,996      cycles

             0.000670644 seconds time elapsed

        $

     It generates PERF_RECORD_ userspace records to store the details:

        $ perf report -D | grep PERF_RECORD
        0xf0 [0x28]: PERF_RECORD_THREAD_MAP nr: 1 thread: 27637
        0x118 [0x12]: PERF_RECORD_CPU_MAP nr: 1 cpu: 65535

        0x1da [0x18]: PERF_RECORD_STAT_ROUND
        [acme@ssdandy linux]$

     An effort was made to make perf.data files generated like this to
     not generate cryptic messages when processed by older tools.

     The 'perf script' bits need rebasing, will go up later.

   - Make command line options always available, even when they depend
     on some feature being enabled, warning the user about use of such
     options (Wang Nan)

   - Support hw breakpoint events (mem:0xAddress) in the default output
     mode in 'perf script' (Wang Nan)

   - Fixes and improvements for supporting annotating ARM binaries,
     support ARM call and jump instructions, more work needed to have
     arch specific stuff separated into tools/perf/arch/*/annotate/
     (Russell King)

   - Add initial 'perf config' command, for now just with a --list
     command to the contents of the configuration file in use and a
     basic man page describing its format, commands for doing edits and
     detailed documentation are being reviewed and proof-read.  (Taeung
     Song)

   - Allows BPF scriptlets specify arguments to be fetched using DWARF
     info, using a prologue generated at compile/build time (He Kuang,
     Wang Nan)

   - Allow attaching BPF scriptlets to module symbols (Wang Nan)

   - Allow attaching BPF scriptlets to userspace code using uprobe (Wang
     Nan)

   - BPF programs now can specify 'perf probe' tunables via its section
     name, separating key=val values using semicolons (Wang Nan)

     Testing some of these new BPF features:

        Use case: get callchains when receiving SSL packets, filter then in the
                  kernel, at arbitrary place.

        # cat ssl.bpf.c

   - Use 'perf probe' various options to list functions, see what
     variables can be collected at any given point, experiment first
     collecting without a filter, then filter, use it together with
     'perf trace', 'perf top', with or without callchains, if it
     explodes, please tell us!

   - Introduce a new callchain mode: "folded", that will list per line
     representations of all callchains for a give histogram entry,
     facilitating 'perf report' output processing by other tools, such
     as Brendan Gregg's flamegraph tools (Namhyung Kim)

Pull RCU updates from Ingo Molnar:
 "The changes in this cycle were:

   - Adding transitivity uniformly to rcu_node structure ->lock
     acquisitions.  (This is implemented by the first two commits on top
     of v4.4-rc2 due to the pervasive nature of this change.)

   - Documentation updates, including RCU requirements.

   - Expedited grace-period changes.

   - Miscellaneous fixes.

   - Linked-list fixes, courtesy of KTSAN.

   - Torture-test updates.

   - Late-breaking fix to sysrq-generated crash.

  One thing I should note is that these pieces of documentation are
  fairly large files:

    .../RCU/Design/Requirements/Requirements.html      | 2897 ++++++++++++++++++++
    .../RCU/Design/Requirements/Requirements.htmlx     | 2741 ++++++++++++++++++

  and are written in HTML, not the usual .txt style.  I hope they are
  fine"

Paul McKenney explains the html docs:
 "For whatever it is worth, the reason for this unconventional choice
  was that attempts to do the diagrams in ASCII art failed miserably.

  And attempts to do ASCII art for the upcoming documentation of the

Merge tag 'perf-core-for-mingo' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/acme/linux into perf/core

Pull perf/core improvements and fixes from Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo:

New features:

- Allow using trace events fields as sort order keys, making 'perf evlist --trace_fields'
  show those, and then the user can select a subset and use like:

    perf top -e sched:sched_switch -s prev_comm,next_comm

  That works as well in 'perf report' when handling files containing
  tracepoints.

  The default when just tracepoint events are found in a perf.data file is to
  format it like ftrace, using the libtraceevent formatters, plugins, etc (Namhyung Kim)

- Add support in 'perf script' to process 'perf stat record' generated files,
  culminating in a python perf script that calculates CPI (Cycles per
  Instruction) (Jiri Olsa)

- Show random perf tool tips in the 'perf report' bottom line (Namhyung Kim)

- perf report now defaults to --group if the perf.data file has grouped events, try it with:

  # perf record -e '{cycles,instructions}' -a sleep 1
  [ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
  [ perf record: Captured and wrote 1.093 MB perf.data (1247 samples) ]
  # perf report
  # Samples: 1K of event 'anon group { cycles, instructions }'
  # Event count (approx.): 1955219195

User visible fixes:

- Coect data mmaps so that the DWARF unwinder can handle usecases needing them,
  like softice (Jiri Olsa)

- Decay callchains in fractal mode, fixing up cases where 'perf top -g' would
  show entries with more than 100% (Namhyung Kim)

Infrastructure changes:

- Sync tools/lib with the lib/ in the kernel sources for find_bit.c and
  move bitmap.[ch] from tools/perf/util/ to tools/lib/ (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)

- No need to set attr.sample_freq in some 'perf test' entries that only
  want to deal with PERF_RECORD_ meta-events, improve a bit error output
  for CQM test (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)

- Fix python binding build, adding some missing object files now required
  due to cpumap using find_bit stuff (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)

- tools/build improvemnts (Jiri Olsa)

- Add more files to cscope/ctags databases (Jiri Olsa)

- Do not show 'trace' in 'perf help' if it is not compiled in (Jiri Olsa)

- Make perf_evlist__open() open evsels with their cpus and threads,
  like perf record does, making them consistent (Adrian Hunter)

- Fix pmu snapshot initialization bug (Stephane Eranian)

- Add missing headers in perf's MANIFEST (Wang Nan)

The reason is that start_shepherd_timer schedules the shepherd work item
which uses vmstat_wq (vmstat_shepherd) before setup_vmstat allocates
that workqueue so if the further initialization takes more than HZ we
might end up scheduling on a NULL vmstat_wq.  This is really unlikely
but not impossible.

This replaces all code in fs/compat_ioctl.c that translated
ioctl arguments into a in-kernel structure, then performed
do_ioctl under set_fs(KERNEL_DS), with code that allocates
data on the user stack and can call the VFS ioctl handler
under USER_DS.

This is done as a hardening measure because the caller
does not know what kind of ioctl handler will be invoked,
only that no corresponding compat_ioctl handler exists and
what the ioctl command number is. The accidental
invocation of an unlocked_ioctl handler that unexpectedly
calls copy_to_user could be a severe security issue.

In code in fs/compat_ioctl.c that translates ioctl arguments
into a in-kernel structure, then performs sys_ioctl, possibly
under set_fs(KERNEL_DS), this commit changes the sys_ioctl
calls to do_ioctl calls. do_ioctl is a new function that does
the same thing as sys_ioctl, but doesn't look up the fd again.

This change is made to avoid (potential) security issues
because of ioctl handlers that accept one of the ioctl
commands I2C_FUNCS, VIDEO_GET_EVENT, MTIOCPOS, MTIOCGET,
TIOCGSERIAL, TIOCSSERIAL, RTC_IRQP_READ, RTC_EPOCH_READ.
This can happen for multiple reasons:

 - The ioctl command number could be reused.
 - The ioctl handler might not check the full ioctl
   command. This is e.g. true for drm_ioctl.
 - The ioctl handler is very special, e.g. cuse_file_ioctl

The real issue is that set_fs(KERNEL_DS) is used here,
but that's fixed in a separate commit
"compat_ioctl: don't call do_ioctl under set_fs(KERNEL_DS)".

This change mitigates potential security issues by
preventing a race that permits invocation of
unlocked_ioctl handlers under KERNEL_DS through compat
code even if a corresponding compat_ioctl handler exists.

So far, no way has been identified to use this to damage
kernel memory without having CAP_SYS_ADMIN in the init ns
(with the capability, doing reads/writes at arbitrary
kernel addresses should be easy through CUSE's ioctl
handler with FUSE_IOCTL_UNRESTRICTED set).
