Merge tag 'char-misc-4.4-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/char-misc

Pull char/misc driver updates from Greg KH:
 "Here is the big char/misc driver update for 4.4-rc1.  Lots of
  different driver and subsystem updates, hwtracing being the largest
  with the addition of some new platforms that are now supported.  Full
  details in the shortlog.

  All of these have been in linux-next for a long time with no reported
  issues"

+Description:	Name of low level fpga manager driver.

+What:		/sys/class/fpga_manager/<fpga>/state
+Date:		August 2015
+KernelVersion:	4.3
+Contact:	Alan Tull <atull@opensource.altera.com>
+Description:	Read fpga manager state as a string.
+		The intent is to provide enough detail that if something goes
+		wrong during FPGA programming (something that the driver can't
+		fix) then userspace can know, i.e. if the firmware request
+		fails, that could be due to not being able to find the firmware
+		file.
+
+		This is a superset of FPGA states and fpga manager driver
+		states.  The fpga manager driver is walking through these steps
+		to get the FPGA into a known operating state.  It's a sequence,
+		though some steps may get skipped.  Valid FPGA states will vary
+		by manufacturer; this is a superset.
+
+		* unknown		= can't determine state
+		* power off		= FPGA power is off
+		* power up		= FPGA reports power is up
+		* reset			= FPGA held in reset state
+		* firmware request	= firmware class request in progress
+		* firmware request error = firmware request failed
+		* write init		= preparing FPGA for programming
+		* write init error	= Error while preparing FPGA for
+					  programming
+		* write			= FPGA ready to receive image data
+		* write error		= Error while programming
+		* write complete	= Doing post programming steps
+		* write complete error	= Error while doing post programming
+		* operating		= FPGA is programmed and operating
