      MAINTAINERS: update DT binding doc locations · 2d799dde
      Rob Herring authored 
      After the recent moving of DT binding documents, some maintainers entries
are stale. Update them to the new locations.

In bindings/fb/, there were only 2 files and I'm assuming the FB
maintainers don't want to be copied on all of bindings/display/. So I've
dropped them.

      lightnvm: Support for Open-Channel SSDs · cd9e9808
      Matias Bjørling authored 
      Open-channel SSDs are devices that share responsibilities with the host
in order to implement and maintain features that typical SSDs keep
strictly in firmware. These include (i) the Flash Translation Layer
(FTL), (ii) bad block management, and (iii) hardware units such as the
flash controller, the interface controller, and large amounts of flash
chips. In this way, Open-channels SSDs exposes direct access to their
physical flash storage, while keeping a subset of the internal features
of SSDs.

LightNVM is a specification that gives support to Open-channel SSDs
LightNVM allows the host to manage data placement, garbage collection,
and parallelism. Device specific responsibilities such as bad block
management, FTL extensions to support atomic IOs, or metadata
persistence are still handled by the device.

The implementation of LightNVM consists of two parts: core and
(multiple) targets. The core implements functionality shared across
targets. This is initialization, teardown and statistics. The targets
implement the interface that exposes physical flash to user-space
applications. Examples of such targets include key-value store,
object-store, as well as traditional block devices, which can be
application-specific.

      New driver: rtl8xxxu (mac80211) · 26f1fad2
      Jes Sorensen authored 
      This is an alternate driver for a number of Realtek WiFi USB devices,
including RTL8723AU, RTL8188CU, RTL8188RU, RTL8191CU, and RTL8192CU.
It was written from scratch utilizing the Linux mac80211 stack.

After spending months cleaning up the vendor provided rtl8723au
driver, which comes with it's own 802.11 stack included, I decided to
rewrite this driver from the bottom up.

Many thanks to Johannes Berg for 802.11 insights and help and Larry
Finger for help with the vendor driver.

The full git log for the development of this driver can be found here:
git git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jes/linux.git
    branch rtl8723au-mac80211

This driver is still under development, but has proven to be very
stable for me. It currently supports station mode only. It has support
for OFDM and CCK rates. It does lack certain features found in the
staging driver, such as power management, AMPDU, and 40MHz channel
support. In addition it does not support AD-HOC, AP, and monitor mode
support at this point.

The driver is known to work with the following devices:
Lenovo Yoga (rtl8723au)
TP-Link TL-WN823N (rtl8192cu)
Etekcity 6R (rtl8188cu)
Daffodil LAN03 (rtl8188cu)
Alfa AWUS036NHR (rtl8188ru)
