   shorter hardware queues and pull on-demand
 * use rhashtable for mac80211 station table
 * minstrel rate control debug improvements and some refactoring
 * fix noisy message about TX power reduction

sound-4.0

sound fixes for 4.0

Here are fixes gathered for 4.0-final; one FireFire endian fix, two
USB-audio quirks, and three HD-audio quirks.

All relatively small and device-specific fixes, should be pretty safe
to apply.

drm-intel-next-2015-04-10

- cdclk handling cleanup and fixes from Ville
- more prep patches for olr removal from John Harrison
- gmbus pin naming rework from Jani (prep for bxt)
- remove ->new_config from Ander (more atomic conversion work)
- rps (boost) tuning and unification with byt/bsw from Chris
- cmd parser batch bool tuning from Chris
- gen8 dynamic pte allocation (Michel Thierry, based on work from Ben Widawsky)
- execlist tuning (not yet all of it) from Chris
- add drm_plane_from_index (Chandra)
- various small things all over

pm+acpi-4.0-rc8

Power management and ACPI fixes for v4.0-rc8

 - Revert a 3.17 hibernate commit that was supposed to fix an issue
   related to e820 reserved regions, but broke resume from hibernation
   on Lenovo x230 (Rafael J Wysocki).

 - Prevent the ACPI cpuidle driver from overwriting the name and
   description of the C0 state set by the core when the list of
   C-states changes (Thomas Schlichter).

 - Remove the no longer needed state_count field from struct cpuidle_device
   which prevents the list of C-states shown by the sysfs interface from
   becoming incorrect when the current number of them is different from
   the number of C-states on boot (Bartlomiej Zolnierkiewicz).

 - The cpufreq core updates the policy object of the only online CPU
   during system resume to make it reflect the current hardware state,
   but it always assumes that CPU to be CPU0 which need not be the
   case, so fix the code to avoid that assumption (Viresh Kumar).

mac80211-for-davem-2015-04-01

This contains just a single fix for a crash I happened to randomly
run into today during testing. It's clearly been around for a while,
but is pretty hard to trigger, even when I tried explicitly (and
modified the code to make it more likely) it rarely did.

iommu-fixes-v4.0-rc6

IOMMU Fixes for Linux v4.0-rc6

This contains fixes for:

	* A VT-d issue where hardware domain-ids might be freed while
	  still in use.

	* An ipmmu-vmsa issue where where the device-table was not zero
	  terminated

	* Unchecked register access issue in the arm-smmu driver

topic/drm-misc-2015-03-31

iio-for-4.1b

Second set of new devices, functionality and cleanup for IIO in the 4.1 cycle.

New Functionality
* Watermark logic for buffers.  Allows for blocking reads to block until
  their requested amount is available - previously they only blocked until
  a single scan of data was available.  Also allows for polling for a
  watermark amount of data to be available.  This feature was first proposed
  some time ago to good responses, but not taken further by the original author
  Octavian has picked up the gauntlet and taken it through
  to merging (along with the hardware fifo support that follows).
* New approach to hardware fifo handling - in particular handling the
  interaction of a hardware fifo feeding into a software fifo and their
  watershed events.  We don't have every possible case well covered yet,
  but this is certainly a good, flexible starting point.  This will replace
  the previous approach used in ancient drivers (sca3000) where we just
  exposed the hardware buffer directly to userspace.  Very few pieces of
  hardware have sufficiently long buffers for that to be an adequate solution.
* bmc150_accel - hardware fifo support.
* mlx90614 - support dual IR sensor devices + some refactoring to clean up the
  code and allow some other functionality currently under review.
* L3GD20H gyroscope support added to the st_gyro driver.
* lis3lv02d accelerometer added to the st_gyro driver. Note this part is
  also supported by the older lis3 driver under misc.  A lengthy discussion
  took place and concluded that holding parts out on the basis that whole
  driver would be subsumed into this one was counter productive.  Better
  to add part support and add additional features as people need them.
  Basically there was not advantage in not merging the support.
* max517 driver gains support for MAX520 and MAX521 DACs.

Documentation
* 3.20 -> 4.0 renaming for recent docs. Whilst technically a fix, I think
  people will cope until the next merge merge window.
* An ABI typo hat -> What:  More ABIs should have hats.
* Document in_rot_offset, illuminance_raw and illuminance_scale.

Cleanups
* Fix a scale extraction bug in generic_buffer.c example.
* Constify a load of device tree related structures.

iio-fixes-for-4.0d

IIO fixes for 4.0 set 4

A couple more IIO fixes.

* Fix check for HAS_IOMEM in the cc100001_adc driver to avoid build errors.
  Rather curiously it was ORed with Regulator and clock support.
* vf610 driver was trying to use an ADC clock outside the possible
  spec on some boards.  The driver assumed a fixed clock speed previously
  across all boards, but that is not true.  This fix ensures that the
  reported frequency is correct on all boards.
* The adis imu common code directly set the current trigger to the
  driver supplied one.  Unfortunately this didn't increase the use count
  leading to a double free via a particular path of changing the trigger
  then removing the driver.

mac80211-next-for-davem-2015-03-30

Lots of updates for net-next; along with the usual flurry
of small fixes, cleanups and internal features we have:
 * VHT support for TDLS and IBSS (conditional on drivers though)
 * first TX performance improvements (the biggest will come later)
 * many suspend/resume (race) fixes
 * name_assign_type support from Tom Gundersen
