nios2/time: Migrate to new 'set-state' interface

2015-09-07T17:30:30+00:00

Migrate nios2 driver to the new 'set-state' interface provided by clockevents core, the earlier 'set-mode' interface is marked obsolete now.

This also enables us to implement callbacks for new states of clockevent devices, for example: ONESHOT_STOPPED.

Merge branch 'mvebu/drivers' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/arm/arm-soc

2015-06-19T14:07:07+00:00

Merge the mvebu/drivers branch of the arm-soc tree which contains
just a single patch bfa1ce5f38938cc9e6c7f2d1011f88eba2b9e2b2 ("bus:
mvebu-mbus: add mv_mbus_dram_info_nooverlap()") that happens to be
a prerequisite of the new marvell/cesa crypto driver.

nios2: Export get_cycles

2015-06-09T14:26:00+00:00

nios2 is the only architecture that does not inline get_cycles
and does not export it.  This breaks crypto as it uses get_cycles
in a number of modules.

nios2: cpuinfo: remove use of seq_printf return value

2015-04-15T23:35:24+00:00

The seq_printf return value, because it's frequently misused,
will eventually be converted to void.

See: commit 1f33c41c03da ("seq_file: Rename seq_overflow() to
     seq_has_overflowed() and make public")
