d635a69dd4 Networking updates for 5.11
Core:
 
  - support "prefer busy polling" NAPI operation mode, where we defer softirq
    for some time expecting applications to periodically busy poll
 
  - AF_XDP: improve efficiency by more batching and hindering
            the adjacency cache prefetcher
 
  - af_packet: make packet_fanout.arr size configurable up to 64K
 
  - tcp: optimize TCP zero copy receive in presence of partial or unaligned
         reads making zero copy a performance win for much smaller messages
 
  - XDP: add bulk APIs for returning / freeing frames
 
  - sched: support fragmenting IP packets as they come out of conntrack
 
  - net: allow virtual netdevs to forward UDP L4 and fraglist GSO skbs
 
 BPF:
 
  - BPF switch from crude rlimit-based to memcg-based memory accounting
 
  - BPF type format information for kernel modules and related tracing
    enhancements
 
  - BPF implement task local storage for BPF LSM
 
  - allow the FENTRY/FEXIT/RAW_TP tracing programs to use bpf_sk_storage
 
 Protocols:
 
  - mptcp: improve multiple xmit streams support, memory accounting and
           many smaller improvements
 
  - TLS: support CHACHA20-POLY1305 cipher
 
  - seg6: add support for SRv6 End.DT4/DT6 behavior
 
  - sctp: Implement RFC 6951: UDP Encapsulation of SCTP
 
  - ppp_generic: add ability to bridge channels directly
 
  - bridge: Connectivity Fault Management (CFM) support as is defined in
            IEEE 802.1Q section 12.14.
 
 Drivers:
 
  - mlx5: make use of the new auxiliary bus to organize the driver internals
 
  - mlx5: more accurate port TX timestamping support
 
  - mlxsw:
    - improve the efficiency of offloaded next hop updates by using
      the new nexthop object API
    - support blackhole nexthops
    - support IEEE 802.1ad (Q-in-Q) bridging
 
  - rtw88: major bluetooth co-existance improvements
 
  - iwlwifi: support new 6 GHz frequency band
 
  - ath11k: Fast Initial Link Setup (FILS)
 
  - mt7915: dual band concurrent (DBDC) support
 
  - net: ipa: add basic support for IPA v4.5
 
 Refactor:
 
  - a few pieces of in_interrupt() cleanup work from Sebastian Andrzej Siewior
 
  - phy: add support for shared interrupts; get rid of multiple driver
         APIs and have the drivers write a full IRQ handler, slight growth
 	of driver code should be compensated by the simpler API which
 	also allows shared IRQs
 
  - add common code for handling netdev per-cpu counters
 
  - move TX packet re-allocation from Ethernet switch tag drivers to
    a central place
 
  - improve efficiency and rename nla_strlcpy

7de3697e9c Add auxiliary bus support
Add support for the Auxiliary Bus, auxiliary_device and auxiliary_driver.
It enables drivers to create an auxiliary_device and bind an
auxiliary_driver to it.

The bus supports probe/remove shutdown and suspend/resume callbacks.
Each auxiliary_device has a unique string based id; driver binds to
an auxiliary_device based on this id through the bus.

d16eb0edf9 docs: driver-api: remove a duplicated index entry
The ipmb file was added twice at index.rst. That
sounds to be because the same patch was applied twice,
via different git trees:

	commit f6ae22d644
	Author: Mauro Carvalho Chehab <mchehab+samsung@kernel.org>
	Commit: Jonathan Corbet <corbet@lwn.net>

	    docs: ipmb: place it at driver-api and convert to ReST

	commit ac499fba98
	Author: Mauro Carvalho Chehab <mchehab+samsung@kernel.org>
	Commit: Corey Minyard <cminyard@mvista.com>

	    docs: ipmb: place it at driver-api and convert to ReST

With Sphinx 4.0.0 development tree, a new warning is produced
due to that:

	.../Documentation/driver-api/index.rst:14: WARNING: duplicated entry found in toctree: driver-api/ipmb

The fix is trivial: just drop the duplicated line.

b8265621f4 Add pldmfw library for PLDM firmware update
The pldmfw library is used to implement common logic needed to flash
devices based on firmware files using the format described by the PLDM
for Firmware Update standard.

This library consists of logic to parse the PLDM file format from
a firmware file object, as well as common logic for sending the relevant
PLDM header data to the device firmware.

A simple ops table is provided so that device drivers can implement
device specific hardware interactions while keeping the common logic to
the pldmfw library.

This library will be used by the Intel ice networking driver as part of
implementing device flash update via devlink. The library aims to be
vendor and device agnostic. For this reason, it has been placed in
lib/pldmfw, in the hopes that other devices which use the PLDM firmware
file format may benefit from it in the future. However, do note that not
all features defined in the PLDM standard have been implemented.

Pull media updates from Mauro Carvalho Chehab:

 - Media documentation is now split into admin-guide, driver-api and
   userspace-api books (a longstanding request from Jon);

 - The media Kconfig was reorganized, in order to make easier to select
   drivers and their dependencies;

 - The testing drivers now has a separate directory;

 - added a new driver for Rockchip Video Decoder IP;

 - The atomisp staging driver was resurrected. It is meant to work with
   4 generations of cameras on Atom-based laptops, tablets and cell
   phones. So, it seems worth investing time to cleanup this driver and
   making it in good shape.

 - Added some V4L2 core ancillary routines to help with h264 codecs;

 - Added an ov2740 image sensor driver;

 - The si2157 gained support for Analog TV, which, in turn, added
   support for some cx231xx and cx23885 boards to also support analog
   standards;

 - Added some V4L2 controls (V4L2_CID_CAMERA_ORIENTATION and
   V4L2_CID_CAMERA_SENSOR_ROTATION) to help identifying where the camera
   is located at the device;

 - VIDIOC_ENUM_FMT was extended to support MC-centric devices;

 - Lots of drivers improvements and cleanups.

  - A reworking of the parallel build setup to work better with a variety of
    systems (and to not take over huge systems entirely in particular).
 
  - The MAINTAINERS file is now converted to RST during the build.
    Hopefully nobody ever tries to print this thing, or they will need to

99a0d9f5e8 This is the bulk of GPIO changes for the v5.5 kernel cycle
Core changes:
 
 - Expose pull up/down flags for the GPIO character device to
   userspace. After clear input from the RaspberryPi and Beagle
   communities, it has been established that prototyping,
   industrial automation and make communities strongly need
   this feature, and as we want people to use the character
   device, we have implemented the simple pull up/down
   interface for GPIO lines. This means we can specify that
   a (chip-specific) pull up/down resistor can be enabled,
   but does not offer fine-grained control such as cases
   where the resistance of the same pull resistor can be
   controlled (yet).
 
 - Introduce devm_fwnode_gpiod_get_index() and start to phase out
   the old symbol devm_fwnode_get_index_gpiod_from_child().
 
 - A bit of documentation clean-up work.
 
 - Introduce a define for GPIO line directions and deploy it
   in all GPIO drivers in the drivers/gpio directory.
 
 - Add a special callback to populate pin ranges when
   cooperating with the pin control subsystem and registering
   ranges as part of adding a gpiolib driver and a
   gpio_irq_chip driver at the same time. This is also
   deployed in the Intel Merrifield driver.
 
 New drivers:
 
 - RDA Micro GPIO controller.
 
 - XGS-iproc GPIO driver.
 
 Driver improvements:
 
 - Wake event and debounce support on the Tegra 186 driver.
 
 - Finalize the Aspeed SGPIO driver.
 
 - MPC8xxx uses a normal IRQ handler rather than a chained
   handler.

e0dccbdf5a Staging / IIO driver patches for 5.2-rc1
Here is the big staging and iio driver update for 5.2-rc1.
 
 Lots of tiny fixes all over the staging and IIO driver trees here, along
 with some new IIO drivers.
 
 Also we ended up deleting two drivers, making this pull request remove a
 few hundred thousand lines of code, always a nice thing to see.  Both of
 the drivers removed have been replaced with "real" drivers in their
 various subsystem directories, and they will be coming to you from those
 locations during this merge window.
 
 There are some core vt/selection changes in here, that was due to some
 cleanups needed for the speakup fixes.  Those have all been acked by the
 various subsystem maintainers (i.e. me), so those are ok.
 
 We also added a few new drivers, for some odd hardware, giving new
 developers plenty to work on with basic coding style cleanups to come in
 the near future.
 
 Other than that, nothing unusual here.
 
 All of these have been in linux-next for a while with no reported
 issues, other than an odd gcc warning for one of the new drivers that
 should be fixed up soon.
