      auxdisplay: img-ascii-lcd: driver for simple ASCII LCD displays · 0cad855f
      Paul Burton authored 
      Add a driver for simple ASCII LCD displays found on the MIPS Boston,
Malta & SEAD3 development boards. The Boston display is an independent
memory mapped device with a simple memory mapped 8 byte register space
containing the 8 ASCII characters to display. The Malta display is
exposed as part of the Malta board registers, and provides 8 registers
each of which corresponds to one of the ASCII characters to display. The
SEAD3 display is slightly more complex, exposing an interface to an
S6A0069 LCD controller via registers provided by the boards CPLD.
However although the displays differ in their register interface, we
require similar functionality on each board so abstracting away the
differences within a single driver allows us to share a significant
amount of code & ensure consistent behaviour.

The driver displays the Linux kernel version as the default message, but
allows the message to be changed via a character device. Messages longer
then the number of characters that the display can show will scroll.

This provides different behaviour to the existing LCD display code for
the MIPS Malta or MIPS SEAD3 platforms in the following ways:

  - The default string to display is not "LINUX ON MALTA" or "LINUX ON
    SEAD3" but "Linux" followed by the version number of the kernel
    (UTS_RELEASE).

  - Since that string tends to be significantly longer it scrolls twice
    as fast, moving every 500ms rather than every 1s.

  - The LCD won't be updated until the driver is probed, so it doesn't
    provide the early "LINUX" string.

      MAINTAINERS: Update powerpc website & add selftests · ad654f25
      Michael Ellerman authored 
      The selftests under tools/testing/selftests/powerpc are maintained by
us, so add a file pattern for them.

Also drop the www.penguinppc.org link, it's not dead, but the site is
dead (database error). Instead link to the wiki attached to our github,
there is some info there which may be useful, which is better than none.

      MAINTAINERS: Drop separate pseries entry · 55099115
      Michael Ellerman authored 
      Paul is no longer acting as a separate maintainer for pseries, it is
handled along with the rest of powerpc. The URL no longer links anywhere
meaningful, so drop it also.

      MAINTAINERS: Remove myself from PA Semi entries · 56a5b8da
      Olof Johansson authored 
      The platform is old, very few users and I lack bandwidth to keep after
it these days.

Mark the base platform as well as the drivers as orphans, patches have
been flowing through the fallback maintainers for a while already.
