This commit adds the vboxvideo drm/kms driver for the virtual graphics
card used in Virtual Box virtual machines to drivers/staging.

Why drivers/staging? This driver is already being patched into the kernel
by several distros, thus it is good to get this driver upstream soon, so
that work on the driver can be easily shared.

At the same time we want to take our time to get this driver properly
cleaned up (mainly converted to the new atomic modesetting APIs) before
submitting it as a normal driver under drivers/gpu/drm, putting this
driver in staging for now allows both.

Note this driver has already been significantly cleaned up, when I started
working on this the files under /usr/src/vboxguest/vboxvideo as installed
by Virtual Box 5.1.18 Guest Additions had a total linecount of 52681
lines. The version in this commit has 4874 lines.

Pull staging/IIO updates from Greg KH:
 "Here is the big staging tree update for 4.12-rc1.

  It's a big one, adding about 350k new lines of crap^Wcode, mostly all
  in a big dump of media drivers from Intel. But there's other new
  drivers in here as well, yet-another-wifi driver, new IIO drivers, and
  a new crypto accelerator.

  We also deleted a bunch of stuff, mostly in patch cleanups, but also
  the Android ION code has shrunk a lot, and the Android low memory
  killer driver was finally deleted, much to the celebration of the -mm
  developers.

  All of these have been in linux-next with a few build issues that will
  show up when you merge to your tree"

Introduce basic low level Arm TrustZone CryptoCell HW support.
This first patch doesn't actually register any Crypto API
transformations, these will follow up in the next patch.

This first revision supports the CC 712 REE component.

This driver implements the USB Type-C Power Delivery state machine
for both source and sink ports. Alternate mode support is not
fully implemented.

The driver attaches to the USB Type-C class code implemented in
the following patches.

	usb: typec: add driver for Intel Whiskey Cove PMIC USB Type-C PHY
	usb: USB Type-C connector class

This driver only implements the state machine. Lower level drivers are
responsible for
- Reporting VBUS status and activating VBUS
- Setting CC lines and providing CC line status
- Setting line polarity
- Activating and deactivating VCONN
- Setting the current limit
- Activating and deactivating PD message transfers
- Sending and receiving PD messages

The driver provides both a functional API as well as callbacks for
lower level drivers.

<title>staging: Add rtl8723bs sdio wifi driver</title>

<id>554c0a3abf216c991c5ebddcdb2c08689ecd290b</id>
<content type='text'>
The rtl8723bs is found on quite a few systems used by Linux users,
such as on Atom systems (Intel Computestick and various other
Atom based devices) and on many (budget) ARM boards such as
the CHIP.

The plan moving forward with this is for the new clean,
written from scratch, rtl8xxxu driver to eventually gain
support for sdio devices. But there is no clear timeline
for that, so lets add this driver included in staging for now.

Initial cleanup of bcm2835-audio driver for the
bcm2535(Raspberry PI)

Driver provides HDMI audio through ALSA and is built
on top of the vc04_services driver.

Original version of the driver is available at:
http://www.github.com/raspberry/linux

Driver compiles without any build errors or warnings.

Tested on a RPI 3 running in ARM64 mode with the
vlc player and alsautils.

It's now 2017, and a new LTS kernel has been chosen, so let's do what we
said we would do in the TODO file and delete this code.  If it's still
needed, and a maintainer steps up to take it over, we will easily revert
it.
