Greg Kroah-Hartman 53c43c5ca1 Revert "Staging: olpc_dcon: Remove obsolete driver"
This reverts commit 82ef33af9d.  It turns
out these machines are still out there, and the original patch broke
them.  So revert it, adding back the driver, so people's machines still
work properly.

Linus Walleij 8bb7e27bbb staging: delete STE RMI4 hackish driver
As of commit 62d5bdf972
"Merge branch 'synaptics-rmi4' into next" the input subsystem
has a proper RMI4 infrastructure and touchscreen driver.
The ST Ux500 platform has been converted to use the new driver
and its devicetree bindings. Delete this ancient hack.

Arnd Bergmann a921e9bd4e isdn: i4l: move active-isdn drivers to staging
The icn, act2000 and pcbit drivers are all for very old hardware,
and it is highly unlikely that anyone is actually still using them
on modern kernels, if at all.

All three drivers apparently are for hardware that predates PCI
being the common connector, as they are ISA-only and active
PCI ISDN cards were widely available in the 1990s.

Looking through the git logs, it I cannot find any indication of a
patch to any of these drivers that has been tested on real hardware,
only cleanups or global API changes.

Paul Gortmaker e223da96bf staging: drop kbuild workaround dummy module from top dir
This is essentially a revert of 86f69fe9c0
("Staging: workaround build system bug"), but to call it a revert would
imply it was wrong -- rather it seems more like it is just no longer
required anymore.

It doesn't list the full details of the failing use case, but the most
obvious would appear to be a "make allnoconfig" that subsequently had set
just CONFIG_STAGING=y in the .config file, to give:

  paul@builder:~/git/linux-head$ grep STAGING ../staging-allno/.config
  CONFIG_STAGING=y
  # CONFIG_STAGING_MEDIA is not set
  # CONFIG_STAGING_BOARD is not set
  paul@builder:~/git/linux-head$

After building this .config (on ARM, just to be different), we see that
built-in.o is created, and the final vmlinux links OK:

  paul@builder:~/git/linux-head$ ls -l ../staging-allno/drivers/staging/built-in.o
  -rw-rw-r-- 1 paul paul 257 Nov 16 18:06 ../staging-allno/drivers/staging/built-in.o
  paul@builder:~/git/linux-head$ file ../staging-allno/drivers/staging/built-in.o
  ../staging-allno/drivers/staging/built-in.o: ELF 32-bit LSB relocatable, ARM, version 1, not stripped
  paul@builder:~/git/linux-head$ nm ../staging-allno/drivers/staging/built-in.o
  nm: ../staging-allno/drivers/staging/built-in.o: no symbols
  paul@builder:~/git/linux-head$ ls -l ../staging-allno/vmlinux
  -rwxrwxr-x 1 paul paul 1236326 Nov 16 18:07 ../staging-allno/vmlinux
  paul@builder:~/git/linux-head$

I also tested an "allmodconfig" and did not see any problems there
either.  Switching back to x86-64 and testing several things there didn't
show any issues either.  So it appears we do not need to carry the
workaround in tree any longer.

Merge tag 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/dledford/rdma

Pull inifiniband/rdma updates from Doug Ledford:
 "This is a fairly sizeable set of changes.  I've put them through a
  decent amount of testing prior to sending the pull request due to
  that.

  There are still a few fixups that I know are coming, but I wanted to
  go ahead and get the big, sizable chunk into your hands sooner rather
  than waiting for those last few fixups.

  Of note is the fact that this creates what is intended to be a
  temporary area in the drivers/staging tree specifically for some
  cleanups and additions that are coming for the RDMA stack.  We
  deprecated two drivers (ipath and amso1100) and are waiting to hear
  back if we can deprecate another one (ehca).  We also put Intel's new
  hfi1 driver into this area because it needs to be refactored and a
  transfer library created out of the factored out code, and then it and
  the qib driver and the soft-roce driver should all be modified to use
  that library.

  I expect drivers/staging/rdma to be around for three or four kernel
  releases and then to go away as all of the work is completed and final
  deletions of deprecated drivers are done.

  Summary of changes for 4.3:

   - Create drivers/staging/rdma
   - Move amso1100 driver to staging/rdma and schedule for deletion
   - Move ipath driver to staging/rdma and schedule for deletion
   - Add hfi1 driver to staging/rdma and set TODO for move to regular
     tree
   - Initial support for namespaces to be used on RDMA devices
   - Add RoCE GID table handling to the RDMA core caching code
   - Infrastructure to support handling of devices with differing read

Doug Ledford 2dfcad3ade Staging: Add staging/rdma directory and update MAINTAINERS
Create the rdma directory in the staging area for use as we deprecate
some older drivers and as we bring in some new drivers that are in
need of work.  Update the MAINTAINERS file so that updates to these
files go to linux-rdma@vger.kernel.org.  Expected lifespan of this
directory is three releases for any deprecated drivers moved here
and an unknown, but theoretically bounded amount of time for the new
drivers as a new core RDMA transfer library needs to be written and
the drivers modified to use it in order for them to move out of this

Christian Gromm 57562a7241 Staging: most: add MOST driver's core module
This patch adds the core module of the MOST driver to the kernel's driver
staging area. This module is part of the MOST driver and handles the
configuration interface in sysfs, the buffer management and the data
routing.

MOST defines the protocol, hardware and software layers necessary to allow
for the efficient and low-cost transport of control, real-time and packet
data using a single medium (physical layer). Media currently in use are
fiber optics, unshielded twisted pair cables (UTP) and coax cables. MOST
also supports various speed grades up to 150 Mbps.
For more information on MOST, visit the MOST Cooperation website:
www.mostcooperation.com.

Cars continue to evolve into sophisticated consumer electronics platforms,
increasing the demand for reliable and simple solutions to support audio,
video and data communications. MOST can be used to connect multiple
consumer devices via optical or electrical physical layers directly to one
another or in a network configuration. As a synchronous network, MOST
provides excellent Quality of Service and seamless connectivity for
audio/video streaming. Therefore, the driver perfectly fits to the mission
of Automotive Grade Linux to create open source software solutions for
automotive applications.

The driver consists basically of three layers. The hardware layer, the
core layer and the application layer. The core layer consists of the core
module only. This module handles the communication flow through all three
layers, the configuration of the driver, the configuration interface
representation in sysfs, and the buffer management.
For each of the other two layers a selection of modules is provided. These
modules can arbitrarily be combined to meet the needs of the desired
system architecture. A module of the hardware layer is referred to as an
HDM (hardware dependent module). Each module of this layer handles exactly
one of the peripheral interfaces of a network interface controller (e.g.
USB, MediaLB, I2C). A module of the application layer is referred to as an
AIM (application interfacing module). The modules of this layer give access
to MOST via one the following ways: character devices, ALSA, Networking or
V4L2.

To physically access MOST, an Intelligent Network Interface Controller
(INIC) is needed. For more information on available controllers visit:
www.microchip.com

Alan Cox 2cbf7fe2d5 i2o: move to staging
The I2O layer deals with a technology that to say the least didn't catch on
in the market.

The only relevant products are some of the AMI MegaRAID - which supported I2O
and its native mode (The native mode is faster and runs on Linux), an
obscure crypto ethernet card that's now so many years out of date nobody
would use it, the old DPT controllers, which speak their own dialect and
have their own driver - and ermm.. thats about it.

We also know the code isn't in good shape as recently a patch was proposed
and queried as buggy, which in turn showed the existing code was broken
already by prior "clean up" and nobody had noticed that either.

It's coding style robot code nothing more. Like some forgotten corridor
cleaned relentlessly by a lost Roomba but where no user has trodden in years.

Move it to staging and then to /dev/null.

The headers remain as they are shared with dpt_i2o.

 but not at a huge rate this release, only about 70k lines removed
 overall mostly from removing the horrid bcm driver.
 
 Lots of normal staging driver cleanups and fixes all over the place,
 well over a thousand of them, the shortlog shows all the horrid details.
 
 The "contentious" thing here is the movement of the Android binder code
 out of staging into the "real" part of the kernel.  This is code that
 has been stable for a few years now and is working as-is in the tens of
 millions of devices with no issues.  Yes, the code is horrid, and the
 userspace api leaves a lot to be desired, but it's not going to change
 due to legacy issues that we have no control over.  Because so many
 devices and companies rely on this, and the code is stable, might as
 well promote it out of staging.
 
 This was all discussed at the Linux Plumbers conference, and everyone
 participating agreed that this was the best way forward.
 
 There is work happening to replace the binder code with something new
 that is happening right now, but I don't expect to see the results of
 that work for another year at the earliest.  If that ever happens, and
 Android switches over to it, I'll gladly remove this version.
 
 As for maintainers, I'll be glad to maintain this code, I've been doing
 it for the past few years with no problems.  I'll send a MAINTAINERS
 entry for it before 3.19-final is out, still need to talk to the Google
 developers about if they are willing to help with it or not, last I
 checked they were, which was good.
 
 All of these patches have been in linux-next for a while with no
 reported issues.

Philipp Zabel 6556f7f82b drm: imx: Move imx-drm driver out of staging
The imx-drm driver was put into staging mostly for the following reasons,
all of which have been addressed or superseded:
 - convert the irq driver to use linear irq domains
 - work out the device tree bindings, this lead to the common of_graph
   bindings being used
 - factor out common helper functions, this mostly resulted in the
   component framework and drm of_graph helpers.

Before adding new fixes, and certainly before adding new features,
move it into its proper place below drivers/gpu/drm.

Jeff Kirsher d09e9b160f staging: bcm: remove driver
The Beceem WiMAX driver was barely function in its current state
and was non-functional on 64 bit systems.  Based on repeated
statements from Greg KH that he wanted the driver removed, I am
removing the driver.

Mark Einon e603984823 staging: et131x: Remove et131x driver from drivers/staging
The current version of the et131x driver has been accepted into the

staging.

The MAINTAINERS entry has not been touched here, as the patch to
add the driver to drivers/net modifies it correctly.

This is the second submission of this move-out, after making several style

The Bluetooth maintainer has been complaining about it for a while, and
I shouldn't have merged it over his objections.  There also has been no
real work done on it at all to get it out of the staging tree, so just
delete the code for now.

If someone wants to get this fixed up properly, feel free to revert this
commit and send the revert, along with cleanups and we will be glad to
consider it.

The driver has been broken and disabled for several kernel versions now.
It doesn't have a maintainer anymore, and most of the people who've
worked on it have moved on. There's also still a long list of issues in
the TODO file before it can be moved out of staging. Until someone can
put in the work to make the driver work again and move it out of
staging, remove it from the kernel.
