Pull GPIO updates from Linus Walleij:
 "This is the bulk of GPIO changes for the v4.8 kernel cycle.  The big
  news is the completion of the chardev ABI which I'm very happy about
  and apart from that it's an ordinary, quite busy cycle.  The details
  are below.

  The patches are tested in linux-next for some time, patches to other
  subsystem mostly have ACKs.

  I got overly ambitious with configureing lines as input for IRQ lines
  but it turns out that some controllers have their interrupt-enable and
  input-enabling in orthogonal settings so the assumption that all IRQ
  lines are input lines does not hold.  Oh well, revert and back to the
  drawing board with that.

  Core changes:

   - The big item is of course the completion of the character device
     ABI.  It has now replaced and surpassed the former unmaintainable
     sysfs ABI: we can now hammer (bitbang) individual lines or sets of
     lines and read individual lines or sets of lines from userspace,
     and we can also register to listen to GPIO events from userspace.

     As a tie-in we have two new tools in tools/gpio: gpio-hammer and
     gpio-event-mon that illustrate the proper use of the new ABI.  As
     someone said: the wild west days of GPIO are now over.

   - Continued to remove the pointless ARCH_[WANT_OPTIONAL|REQUIRE]_GPIOLIB
     Kconfig symbols.  I'm patching hexagon, openrisc, powerpc, sh,
     unicore, ia64 and microblaze.  These are either ACKed by their
     maintainers or patched anyways after a grace period and no response
     from maintainers.

     Some archs (ARM) come in from their trees, and others (x86) are
     still not fixed, so I might send a second pull request to root it
     out later in this merge window, or just defer to v4.9.

   - The GPIO tools are moved to the tools build system.

  New drivers:

   - New driver for the MAX77620/MAX20024.

   - New driver for the Intel Merrifield.

   - Enabled PCA953x for the TI PCA9536.

   - Enabled PCA953x for the Intel Edison.

   - Enabled R8A7792 in the RCAR driver.

  Driver improvements:

   - The STMPE and F7188x now supports the .get_direction() callback.

   - The Xilinx driver supports setting multiple lines at once.

   - ACPI support for the Vulcan GPIO controller.

   - The MMIO GPIO driver supports device tree probing.

   - The Acer One 10 is supported through the _DEP ACPI attribute.

  Cleanups:

   - A major cleanup of the OF/DT support code.  It is way easier to
     read and understand now, probably this improves performance too.

   - Drop a few redundant .owner assignments.

   - Remove CLPS711x boardfile support: we are 100% DT"

<title>Clarify naming of thread info/stack allocators</title>
<updated>2016-06-24T22:09:37+00:00</updated>

<link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='https://git.etezian.org/cgit.cgi/linux.git/commit/?id=b235beea9e996a4d36fed6cfef4801a3e7d7a9a5'/>
<id>urn:sha1:b235beea9e996a4d36fed6cfef4801a3e7d7a9a5</id>
<content type='text'>
We've had the thread info allocated together with the thread stack for
most architectures for a long time (since the thread_info was split off
from the task struct), but that is about to change.

But the patches that move the thread info to be off-stack (and a part of
the task struct instead) made it clear how confused the allocator and
freeing functions are.

Because the common case was that we share an allocation with the thread
stack and the thread_info, the two pointers were identical.  That
identity then meant that we would have things like

	ti = alloc_thread_info_node(tsk, node);
	...
	tsk-&gt;stack = ti;

which certainly _worked_ (since stack and thread_info have the same
value), but is rather confusing: why are we assigning a thread_info to
the stack? And if we move the thread_info away, the "confusing" code
just gets to be entirely bogus.

So remove all this confusion, and make it clear that we are doing the
stack allocation by renaming and clarifying the function names to be
about the stack.  The fact that the thread_info then shares the
allocation is an implementation detail, and not really about the
allocation itself.

This is a pure renaming and type fix: we pass in the same pointer, it's
just that we clarify what the pointer means.

The ia64 code that actually only has one single allocation (for all of
task_struct, thread_info and kernel thread stack) now looks a bit odd,
but since "tsk-&gt;stack" is actually not even used there, that oddity
doesn't matter.  It would be a separate thing to clean that up, I
intentionally left the ia64 changes as a pure brute-force renaming and
type change.

Define HAVE_EXIT_THREAD for archs which want to do something in
exit_thread. For others, let's define exit_thread as an empty inline.

This is a cleanup before we change the prototype of exit_thread to
accept a task parameter.

<title>kexec: split kexec_load syscall from kexec core code</title>

<id>urn:sha1:2965faa5e03d1e71e9ff9aa143fff39e0a77543a</id>
<content type='text'>
There are two kexec load syscalls, kexec_load another and kexec_file_load.
 kexec_file_load has been splited as kernel/kexec_file.c.  In this patch I
split kexec_load syscall code to kernel/kexec.c.

And add a new kconfig option KEXEC_CORE, so we can disable kexec_load and
use kexec_file_load only, or vice verse.

The original requirement is from Ted Ts'o, he want kexec kernel signature
being checked with CONFIG_KEXEC_VERIFY_SIG enabled.  But kexec-tools use
kexec_load syscall can bypass the checking.

Vivek Goyal proposed to create a common kconfig option so user can compile
in only one syscall for loading kexec kernel.  KEXEC/KEXEC_FILE selects
KEXEC_CORE so that old config files still work.

Because there's general code need CONFIG_KEXEC_CORE, so I updated all the
architecture Kconfig with a new option KEXEC_CORE, and let KEXEC selects
KEXEC_CORE in arch Kconfig.  Also updated general kernel code with to
kexec_load syscall.
