Pull driver core fixes from Greg Kroah-Hartman:
"Here are some small driver core and firmware fixes for 4.17-rc3
There's a kobject WARN() removal to make syzkaller a lot happier about
some "normal" error paths that it keeps hitting, which should reduce
the number of false-positives we have been getting recently.
There's also some fimware test and documentation fixes, and the
coredump() function signature change that needed to happen after -rc1
before drivers started to take advantage of it.
All of these have been in linux-next with no reported issues"

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/linusw/linux-gpio
Pull GPIO updates from Linus Walleij:
"This is the bulk of GPIO changes for the v4.17 kernel cycle:
New drivers:
- Nintendo Wii GameCube GPIO, known as "Hollywood"
- Raspberry Pi mailbox service GPIO expander
- Spreadtrum main SC9860 SoC and IEC GPIO controllers.
Improvements:
- Implemented .get_multiple() callback for most of the
high-performance industrial GPIO cards for the ISA bus.
- ISA GPIO drivers now select the ISA_BUS_API instead of depending on
it. This is merged with the same pattern for all the ISA drivers
and some other Kconfig cleanups related to this.
Cleanup:
- Delete the TZ1090 GPIO drivers following the deletion of this SoC
from the ARM tree.
- Move the documentation over to driver-api to conform with the rest
of the kernel documentation build.
- Continue to make the GPIO drivers include only
<linux/gpio/driver.h> and not the too broad <linux/gpio.h> that we
want to get rid of.
- Managed to remove VLA allocation from two drivers pending more
fixes in this area for the next merge window.
- Misc janitorial fixes"

Some devices have an optimization in place to enable the firmware to
be retaineed during a system reboot, so after reboot the device can skip
requesting and loading the firmware. This can save up to 1s in load
time. The mt7601u 802.11 device happens to be such a device.
When these devices retain the firmware on a reboot and then suspend
they can miss looking for the firmware on resume. To help with this we
need a way to cache the firmware when such an optimization has taken
place.

USB Type-C connectors consist of various muxes and switches
that route the pins on the connector to the right locations.
The USB Type-C drivers need to be able to control the muxes,
as they are the ones that know things like the cable plug
orientation, and the current mode that was negotiated with
the partner.
This introduces a small API for registering and controlling
cable plug orientation switches, and separate small API for
registering and controlling pin multiplexer/demultiplexer
switches that are needed with Accessory/Alternate Modes.

Several frameworks - clk, gpio, phy, pmw, etc. - maintain
lookup tables for describing connections and provide custom
API for handling them. This introduces a single generic
lookup table and API for the connections.
The motivation for this commit is centralizing the
connection lookup, but the goal is to ultimately extract the
connection descriptions also from firmware by using the
fwnode_graph_* functions and other mechanisms that are
available.

New stuff includes refcount_t documentation, errseq documentation,
kernel-doc support for nested structure definitions, the removal of
lots of crufty kernel-doc support for unused formats, SPDX tag
documentation, the beginnings of a manual for subsystem maintainers,
and lots of fixes and updates.
As usual, some of the changesets reach outside of Documentation/ to
effect kerneldoc comment fixes. It also adds the new LICENSES

Pull power management updates from Rafael Wysocki:
"This includes some infrastructure changes in the PM core, mostly
related to integration between runtime PM and system-wide suspend and
hibernation, plus some driver changes depending on them and fixes for
issues in that area which have become quite apparent recently.
Also included are changes making more x86-based systems use the Low
Power Sleep S0 _DSM interface by default, which turned out to be
necessary to handle power button wakeups from suspend-to-idle on
Surface Pro3.
On the cpufreq front we have fixes and cleanups in the core, some new
hardware support, driver updates and the removal of some unused code
from the CPU cooling thermal driver.
Apart from this, the Operating Performance Points (OPP) framework is
prepared to be used with power domains in the future and there is a
usual bunch of assorted fixes and cleanups.
Specifics:
- Define a PM driver flag allowing drivers to request that their
devices be left in suspend after system-wide transitions to the
working state if possible and add support for it to the PCI bus
type and the ACPI PM domain (Rafael Wysocki).
- Make the PM core carry out optimizations for devices with driver PM
flags set in some cases and make a few drivers set those flags
(Rafael Wysocki).
- Fix and clean up wrapper routines allowing runtime PM device
callbacks to be re-used for system-wide PM, change the generic
power domains (genpd) framework to stop using those routines
incorrectly and fix up a driver depending on that behavior of genpd
(Rafael Wysocki, Ulf Hansson, Geert Uytterhoeven).
- Fix and clean up the PM core's device wakeup framework and
re-factor system-wide PM core code related to device wakeup
(Rafael Wysocki, Ulf Hansson, Brian Norris).
- Make more x86-based systems use the Low Power Sleep S0 _DSM
interface by default (to fix power button wakeup from
suspend-to-idle on Surface Pro3) and add a kernel command line
switch to tell it to ignore the system sleep blacklist in the ACPI
core (Rafael Wysocki).
- Fix a race condition related to cpufreq governor module removal and
clean up the governor management code in the cpufreq core (Rafael
Wysocki).
- Drop the unused generic code related to the handling of the static
power energy usage model in the CPU cooling thermal driver along
with the corresponding documentation (Viresh Kumar).
- Add mt2712 support to the Mediatek cpufreq driver (Andrew-sh
Cheng).
- Add a new operating point to the imx6ul and imx6q cpufreq drivers
and switch the latter to using clk_bulk_get() (Anson Huang, Dong
Aisheng).
- Add support for multiple regulators to the TI cpufreq driver along
with a new DT binding related to that and clean up that driver
somewhat (Dave Gerlach).
- Fix a powernv cpufreq driver regression leading to incorrect CPU
frequency reporting, fix that driver to deal with non-continguous
P-states correctly and clean it up (Gautham Shenoy, Shilpasri
Bhat).
- Add support for frequency scaling on Armada 37xx SoCs through the
generic DT cpufreq driver (Gregory CLEMENT).
- Fix error code paths in the mvebu cpufreq driver (Gregory CLEMENT).
- Fix a transition delay setting regression in the longhaul cpufreq
driver (Viresh Kumar).
- Add Skylake X (server) support to the intel_pstate cpufreq driver
and clean up that driver somewhat (Srinivas Pandruvada).
- Clean up the cpufreq statistics collection code (Viresh Kumar).
- Drop cluster terminology and dependency on physical_package_id from
the PSCI driver and drop dependency on arm_big_little from the SCPI
cpufreq driver (Sudeep Holla).
- Add support for system-wide suspend and resume to the RAPL power
capping driver and drop a redundant semicolon from it (Zhen Han,
Luis de Bethencourt).
- Make SPI domain validation (in the SCSI SPI transport driver) and
system-wide suspend mutually exclusive as they rely on the same
underlying mechanism and cannot be carried out at the same time
(Bart Van Assche).
- Fix the computation of the amount of memory to preallocate in the
hibernation core and clean up one function in there (Rainer Fiebig,
Kyungsik Lee).
- Prepare the Operating Performance Points (OPP) framework for being
used with power domains and clean up one function in it (Viresh
Kumar, Wei Yongjun).
- Clean up the generic sysfs interface for device PM (Andy
Shevchenko).
- Fix several minor issues in power management frameworks and clean
them up a bit (Arvind Yadav, Bjorn Andersson, Geert Uytterhoeven,
Gustavo Silva, Julia Lawall, Luis de Bethencourt, Paul Gortmaker,
Sergey Senozhatsky, gaurav jindal).
- Make it easier to disable PM via Kconfig (Mark Brown).
- Clean up the cpupower and intel_pstate_tracer utilities (Doug
Smythies, Laura Abbott)"

When host rescinds the device, the UIO driver will clear the interrupt

will then fail with -EIO. This is simpler than adding lots extra uevent

Make the PM core handle DPM_FLAG_LEAVE_SUSPENDED directly for
devices whose "noirq", "late" and "early" driver callbacks are
invoked directly by it.
Namely, make it skip all of the system-wide resume callbacks for
such devices with DPM_FLAG_LEAVE_SUSPENDED set if they are in
runtime suspend during the "noirq" phase of system-wide suspend
(or analogous) transitions or the system transition under way is
a proper suspend (rather than anything related to hibernation) and
the device's wakeup settings are compatible with runtime PM (that
is, the device cannot generate wakeup signals at all or it is
allowed to wake up the system from sleep).

Make the PM core avoid invoking the "late" and "noirq" system-wide
suspend (or analogous) callbacks provided by device drivers directly
for devices with DPM_FLAG_SMART_SUSPEND set that are in runtime
suspend during the "late" and "noirq" phases of system-wide suspend
(or analogous) transitions. That is only done for devices without
any middle-layer "late" and "noirq" suspend callbacks (to avoid
confusing the middle layer if there is one).
The underlying observation is that runtime PM is disabled for devices
during the "late" and "noirq" system-wide suspend phases, so if they
remain in runtime suspend from the "late" phase forward, it doesn't
make sense to invoke the "late" and "noirq" callbacks provided by
the drivers for them (arguably, the device is already suspended and
in the right state). Thus, if the remaining driver suspend callbacks
are to be invoked directly by the core, they can be skipped.
This change really makes it possible for, say, platform device
drivers to re-use runtime PM suspend and resume callbacks by
pointing ->suspend_late and ->resume_early, respectively (and
possibly the analogous hibernation-related callback pointers too),
to them without adding any extra "is the device already suspended?"
type of checks to the callback routines, as long as they will be
invoked directly by the core.
