      Pull mfd fixes from Samuel Ortiz:
       "This is the remaining MFD fixes for 3.6, with 5 pending fixes:
      
         - A tps65217 build error fix.
         - A lcp_ich regression fix caused by the MFD driver failing to
           initialize the watchdog sub device due to ACPI conflicts.
         - 2 MAX77693 interrupt handling bug fixes.
         - An MFD core fix, adding an IRQ domain argument to the MFD device
           addition API in order to prevent silent and potentially harmful
           remapping behaviour changes for drivers supporting non-DT
           platforms."

      Pull pwm fixes from Thierry Reding:
       "While this comes a bit later than I had wished, both patches are
        rather minor and touch only new drivers so I think these are still
        safe for merging."

      Revert "sched: Improve scalability via 'CPU buddies', which withstand random perturbations" · 37407ea7
      Linus Torvalds authored
      This reverts commit 970e1789.
      
      Nikolay Ulyanitsky reported thatthe 3.6-rc5 kernel has a 15-20%
      performance drop on PostgreSQL 9.2 on his machine (running "pgbench").
      
      Borislav Petkov was able to reproduce this, and bisected it to this
      commit 970e1789 ("sched: Improve scalability via 'CPU buddies' ...")
      apparently because the new single-idle-buddy model simply doesn't find
      idle CPU's to reschedule on aggressively enough.
      
      Mike Galbraith suspects that it is likely due to the user-mode spinlocks
      in PostgreSQL not reacting well to preemption, but we don't really know
      the details - I'll just revert the commit for now.
      
      There are hopefully other approaches to improve scheduler scalability
      without it causing these kinds of downsides.
