Linus Torvalds bab588fcfb arm-soc: soc-specific updates 
This is a larger set of new functionality for the existing SoC families,
 including:
 
 * vt8500 gains support for new CPU cores, notably the Cortex-A9 based wm8850
 * prima2 gains support for the "marco" SoC family, its SMP based cousin
 * tegra gains support for the new Tegra4 (Tegra114) family
 * socfpga now supports a newer version of the hardware including SMP
 * i.mx31 and bcm2835 are now using DT probing for their clocks
 * lots of updates for sh-mobile
 * OMAP updates for clocks, power management and USB
 * i.mx6q and tegra now support cpuidle
 * kirkwood now supports PCIe hot plugging
 * tegra clock support is updated
 * tegra USB PHY probing gets implemented diffently

NVEC: An NVidia compliant Embedded Controller Protocol Implemenation

This is an implementation of the NVEC protocol used to communicate with an
embedded controller (EC) via I2C bus. The EC is an I2C master while the host
processor is the I2C slave. Requests from the host processor to the EC are
started by triggering a gpio line.

There is no written documentation of the protocol available to the public,
but the source code[1] of the published nvec reference drivers can be a guide.
This driver is currently only used by the AC100 project[2], but it is likely,
that other Tegra boards (not yet mainlined, if ever) also use it.
