It is necessary to clear MC13892_SWITCHERS0_SWxHI bit when set voltage to the
voltage range from 1100000 to 1375000. Leaving MC13892_SWITCHERS0_SWxHI bit
untouched may result in wrong voltage setting.
For example, currently switch voltage from 1400000 to 1300000 will set the
voltage to 1800000 because the HI bit is still set.

Currently cpuidle drivers are spread across different archs.
As a result, there are several different paths for cpuidle patch
submissions: cpuidle core changes go through linux-pm, ARM driver
changes go to the arm-soc or SoC-specific trees, sh changes go
through the sh arch tree, pseries changes go through the PowerPC tree
and finally intel changes go through the Len's tree while ACPI idle
changes go through linux-pm.
That makes it difficult to consolidate code and to propagate
modifications from the cpuidle core to the different drivers.
Hopefully, a movement has started to put the majority of cpuidle
drivers under drivers/cpuidle like cpuidle-calxeda.c and
cpuidle-kirkwood.c.
Add a maintainer entry for cpuidle to MAINTAINERS to clarify the
situation and to indicate to new cpuidle driver authors that those
drivers should not go into arch-specific directories.
The upstreaming process is unchanged: Rafael takes patches for
merging into his tree, but with an Acked-by: tag from the driver's
maintainer, so indicate in the drivers' headers who maintains them.
The arrangement will be the same as for cpufreq.

Ensure to unregister all regulators before return error in probe().
The regulator register order depends on the regulator ID pass to
ab3100_regulator_register() function. Thus we need to scan ab3100_regulator_desc
and find the index of successfully registered regulators, or alternatively just
call ab3100_regulators_remove() to unregister all registered regulators.
Since current code uses a static ab3100_regulators table, explicitly set
reg->rdev = NULL after regulator_unregister() call to ensure calling
ab3100_regulators_remove() in the unwind path always work.
Also move ab3100_regulators_remove() to avoid forward declaration.

The reason for the crash is that '__efivars' hasn't been initialised nor
has it been registered with register_efivars() by the time the google
EFI SMI driver runs. The gsmi code uses its own struct efivars, and
therefore, a different variable list. Fix the above crash by passing
the registered struct efivars to variable_is_present(), so that we
traverse the correct list.

This mutex avoids deadlock in case of use of multiple pin
controllers. Before this modification, by using a global
mutex, deadlock appeared when, for example, a call to
pinctrl_pins_show() locked the pinctrl_mutex, called the
ops->pin_dbg_show of a particular pin controller. If this
pin controller needs I2C access to retrieve configuration
information and I2C driver is using pinctrl to drive its
pins, a call to pinctrl_select_state() try to lock again
pinctrl_mutex which leads to a deadlock.
Notice that the mutex grab from the two direction functions
was moved into pinctrl_gpio_direction().
For several cases, we can't replace pinctrl_mutex by
pctldev->mutex, because at this stage, pctldev is
not accessible :
- pinctrl_get()/pinctrl_put()
- pinctrl_register_maps()
So add respectively pinctrl_list_mutex and
pinctrl_maps_mutex in order to protect
pinctrl_list and pinctrl_maps list instead.
Reintroduce pinctrldev_list_mutex in
find_pinctrl_by_of_node(),
pinctrl_find_and_add_gpio_range()
pinctrl_request_gpio(), pinctrl_free_gpio(),
pinctrl_gpio_direction(), pinctrl_devices_show(),
pinctrl_register() and pinctrl_unregister() to
protect pinctrldev_list.
Changes v2->v3:
- Fix a missing EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL() for pinctrl_select_state().
Changes v1->v2:
- pinctrl_select_state_locked() is removed, all lock mechanism
is located inside pinctrl_select_state(). When parsing
the state->setting list, take the per-pin-controller driver
lock. (Patrice).
- Introduce pinctrldev_list_mutex to protect pinctrldev_list
in all functions which parse or modify pictrldev_list.
(Patrice).
- move find_pinctrl_by_of_node() from pinctrl/devicetree.c to
pinctrl/core.c in order to protect pinctrldev_list.
(Patrice).
- Sink mutex:es into some functions and remove some _locked
variants down to where the lists are actually accessed to
make things simpler. (Linus)
- Drop *all* mutexes completely from pinctrl_lookup_state()
and pinctrl_select_state() - no relevant mutex was taken
and it was unclear what this was protecting against. (Linus)

Commit 4ae46be "Thermal: Introduce thermal_zone_trip_update()"
introduced a regression causing the fan to be always on even when
the system is idle.
My original idea in that commit is that:
- when the current temperature is above the trip point,
keep the fan on, even if the temperature is dropping.
- when the current temperature is below the trip point,
turn on the fan when the temperature is raising,
turn off the fan when the temperature is dropping.
But this is what the code actually does:
- when the current temperature is above the trip point,
the fan keeps on.
- when the current temperature is below the trip point,
the fan is always on because thermal_get_trend()
in driver/acpi/thermal.c returns THERMAL_TREND_RAISING.
Thus the fan keeps running even if the system is idle.
Fix this in drivers/acpi/thermal.c.

On my SMP platform which is made of 5 cores in 2 clusters, I
have the nr_busy_cpu field of sched_group_power struct that is
not null when the platform is fully idle - which makes the
scheduler unhappy.
The root cause is:
During the boot sequence, some CPUs reach the idle loop and set
their NOHZ_IDLE flag while waiting for others CPUs to boot. But
the nr_busy_cpus field is initialized later with the assumption
that all CPUs are in the busy state whereas some CPUs have
already set their NOHZ_IDLE flag.
More generally, the NOHZ_IDLE flag must be initialized when new
sched_domains are created in order to ensure that NOHZ_IDLE and
nr_busy_cpus are aligned.
This condition can be ensured by adding a synchronize_rcu()
between the destruction of old sched_domains and the creation of
new ones so the NOHZ_IDLE flag will not be updated with old
sched_domain once it has been initialized. But this solution
introduces a additionnal latency in the rebuild sequence that is
called during cpu hotplug.
As suggested by Frederic Weisbecker, another solution is to have
the same rcu lifecycle for both NOHZ_IDLE and sched_domain
struct. A new nohz_idle field is added to sched_domain so both
status and sched_domain will share the same RCU lifecycle and
will be always synchronized. In addition, there is no more need
to protect nohz_idle against concurrent access as it is only
modified by 2 exclusive functions called by local cpu.
This solution has been prefered to the creation of a new struct
with an extra pointer indirection for sched_domain.
The synchronization is done at the cost of :
- An additional indirection and a rcu_dereference for accessing nohz_idle.
- We use only the nohz_idle field of the top sched_domain.

[ Fixed !NO_HZ build bug. ]
Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@kernel.org>
There was a timing window when a GFS2 file system was unmounted
that caused GFS2 to call BUG() and panic the kernel. The call
to BUG() is meant to ensure that the glock reference count,
gl_ref, never gets down to zero and bounce back up again. What was
happening during umount is that function gfs2_put_super was dequeing
its glocks for well-known files. In particular, we saw it on the
journal glock, sd_jinode_gh. The dequeue caused delayed work to be
queued for the glock state machine, to transition the lock to an
"unlocked" state. While the work was still queued, gfs2_put_super
called gfs2_gl_hash_clear to clear out the glock hash tables.
If the timing was just so, the glock work function would drop the
reference count at the time when it was being checked for zero,
and that caused BUG() to be called. This patch calls
flush_workqueue before clearing the glock hash tables, thereby
ensuring that the delayed work is executed before the hash tables
are cleared, and therefore the reference count never goes to zero
until the glock is cleared.

Linus found, while extending integer type extension checks in the
sparse static code checker, various fragile patterns of mixed
signed/unsigned 64-bit/32-bit integer use in perf_events_p4.c.
The relevant hardware register ABI is 64 bit wide on 32-bit
kernels as well, so clean it all up a bit, remove unnecessary
casts, and make sure we use 64-bit unsigned integers in these
places.
[ Unfortunately this patch was not tested on real P4 hardware,
those are pretty rare already. If this patch causes any
problems on P4 hardware then please holler ... ]
