Couple conflicts resolved here:
1) In the MACB driver, a bug fix to properly initialize the
RX tail pointer properly overlapped with some changes
to support variable sized rings.
2) In XGBE we had a "CONFIG_PM" --> "CONFIG_PM_SLEEP" fix
overlapping with a reorganization of the driver to support
ACPI, OF, as well as PCI variants of the chip.
3) In 'net' we had several probe error path bug fixes to the
stmmac driver, meanwhile a lot of this code was cleaned up
and reorganized in 'net-next'.
4) The cls_flower classifier obtained a helper function in
'net-next' called __fl_delete() and this overlapped with
Daniel Borkamann's bug fix to use RCU for object destruction
in 'net'. It also overlapped with Jiri's change to guard
the rhashtable_remove_fast() call with a check against
tc_skip_sw().
5) In mlx4, a revert bug fix in 'net' overlapped with some
unrelated changes in 'net-next'.
6) In geneve, a stale header pointer after pskb_expand_head()
bug fix in 'net' overlapped with a large reorganization of
the same code in 'net-next'. Since the 'net-next' code no
longer had the bug in question, there was nothing to do
other than to simply take the 'net-next' hunks.

udplite conflict is resolved by taking what 'net-next' did
which removed the backlog receive method assignment, since
it is no longer necessary.

All conflicts were simple overlapping changes except perhaps
for the Thunder driver.
That driver has a change_mtu method explicitly for sending
a message to the hardware. If that fails it returns an
error.
Normally a driver doesn't need an ndo_change_mtu method becuase those
are usually just range changes, which are now handled generically.
But since this extra operation is needed in the Thunder driver, it has
to stay.
However, if the message send fails we have to restore the original
MTU before the change because the entire call chain expects that if
an error is thrown by ndo_change_mtu then the MTU did not change.
Therefore code is added to nicvf_change_mtu to remember the original
MTU, and to restore it upon nicvf_update_hw_max_frs() failue.

Merge tag 'v4.9-rc4' into sound
Bring in -rc4 patches so I can successfully merge the sound doc changes.
In preparation for removing the idle_notifier, remove its only user, the
i7300_idle driver.
i7300_idle was deployed in 2008 to reduce idle memory power on systems
using the i7300 chipset. The driver worked by throttling the
fully-buffered DIMMs during idle periods using the IOAT DMA engine.
The driver ran only on the i7300 chip-set, and no other hardware has used
this mechanism. The driver no longer has a maintainer.
Removing this driver will increase idle power on i7300 systems when they
run the new kernel without the driver.

I would like to volunteer as a maintainer for the SPI NOR part of the MTD
subsystem.
Over the last months, a significant number of SPI NOR related patches have
been submitted, some of them have been reviewed, but very few have finally
been merged. Hence, the number of pending SPI NOR related patches continues
to increase over the time.
Through my work on SPI NOR memories from many manufacturers over the last
two years, I've gained a solid understanding of this technology.
I've already helped by reviewing patches from other contributors on the
mailing list, and would like to help getting those patches integrated by
volunteering as a maintainer for this specific area.
Boris Brezillon has already stepped up as a maintainer for the NAND
sub-subsystem in MTD, and the SPI NOR sub-subsystem could be handled in
the same way: I would be reviewing patches touching this area, collecting
them and sending pull requests to Brian Norris.
Also Marek Vasut has volunteered as well as maintainer for the SPI NOR
subsystem.
