Pull xen fixes from Juergen Gross:

 - A series to fix a regression when running as a fully virtualized
   guest on an old Xen hypervisor not supporting PV interrupt callbacks
   for HVM guests.

 - A patch to add support to query Xen resource sizes (setting was
   possible already) from user mode.

It's useful to be able to test non-vector event channel delivery, to make
sure Linux will work properly on older Xen which doesn't have it.

It's also useful for those working on Xen and Xen-compatible hypervisors,
because there are guest kernels still in active use which use PCI INTX
even when vector delivery is available.

Pull ARM SoC driver updates from Arnd Bergmann:
 "There are a couple of subsystems maintained by other people that merge
  their drivers through the SoC tree, those changes include:

   - The SCMI firmware framework gains support for sensor notifications
     and for controlling voltage domains.

   - A large update for the Tegra memory controller driver, integrating
     it better with the interconnect framework

   - The memory controller subsystem gains support for Mediatek MT8192

   - The reset controller framework gains support for sharing pulsed
     resets

  For Soc specific drivers in drivers/soc, the main changes are

   - The Allwinner/sunxi MBUS gets a rework for the way it handles
     dma_map_ops and offsets between physical and dma address spaces.

   - An errata fix plus some cleanups for Freescale Layerscape SoCs

   - A cleanup for renesas drivers regarding MMIO accesses.

   - New SoC specific drivers for Mediatek MT8192 and MT8183 power
     domains

   - New SoC specific drivers for Aspeed AST2600 LPC bus control and SoC
     identification.

   - Core Power Domain support for Qualcomm MSM8916, MSM8939, SDM660 and
     SDX55.

   - A rework of the TI AM33xx 'genpd' power domain support to use
     information from DT instead of platform data

   - Support for TI AM64x SoCs

   - Allow building some Amlogic drivers as modules instead of built-in

  Finally, there are numerous cleanups and smaller bug fixes for
  Mediatek, Tegra, Samsung, Qualcomm, TI OMAP, Amlogic, Rockchips,
  Renesas, and Xilinx SoCs"

Pull IOMMU updates from Will Deacon:
 "There's a good mixture of improvements to the core code and driver
  changes across the board.

  One thing worth pointing out is that this includes a quirk to work
  around behaviour in the i915 driver (see 65f746e8285f ("iommu: Add
  quirk for Intel graphic devices in map_sg")), which otherwise
  interacts badly with the conversion of the intel IOMMU driver over to
  the DMA-IOMMU APU but has being fixed properly in the DRM tree.

  We'll revert the quirk later this cycle once we've confirmed that
  things don't fall apart without it.

  Summary:

   - IOVA allocation optimisations and removal of unused code

   - Introduction of DOMAIN_ATTR_IO_PGTABLE_CFG for parameterising the
     page-table of an IOMMU domain

   - Support for changing the default domain type in sysfs

   - Optimisation to the way in which identity-mapped regions are
     created

   - Driver updates:
       * Arm SMMU updates, including continued work on Shared Virtual
         Memory
       * Tegra SMMU updates, including support for PCI devices
       * Intel VT-D updates, including conversion to the IOMMU-DMA API

Pull USB / Thunderbolt updates from Greg KH:
 "Here is the big USB and thunderbolt pull request for 5.11-rc1.

  Nothing major in here, just the grind of constant development to
  support new hardware and fix old issues:

   - thunderbolt updates for new USB4 hardware

   - cdns3 major driver updates

   - lots of typec updates and additions as more hardware is available

   - usb serial driver updates and fixes

Pull documentation updates from Jonathan Corbet:
 "A much quieter cycle for documentation (happily), with, one hopes, the
  bulk of the churn behind us. Significant stuff in this pull includes:

   - A mechanism from Mauro to automatically format
     Documentation/features for the built docs

   - Automatic cross references without explicit :ref: markup

   - A new reset-controller document

   - An extensive new document on reporting problems from Thorsten

  That last patch also adds the CC-BY-4.0 license to LICENSES/dual;
  there was some discussion on this, but we seem to have consensus and
  an ack from Greg for that addition"

Pull x86 SGC support from Borislav Petkov:
 "Intel Software Guard eXtensions enablement. This has been long in the
  making, we were one revision number short of 42. :)

  Intel SGX is new hardware functionality that can be used by
  applications to populate protected regions of user code and data
  called enclaves. Once activated, the new hardware protects enclave
  code and data from outside access and modification.

  Enclaves provide a place to store secrets and process data with those
  secrets. SGX has been used, for example, to decrypt video without
  exposing the decryption keys to nosy debuggers that might be used to
  subvert DRM. Software has generally been rewritten specifically to run
  in enclaves, but there are also projects that try to run limited
  unmodified software in enclaves.

  Most of the functionality is concentrated into arch/x86/kernel/cpu/sgx/
  except the addition of a new mprotect() hook to control enclave page
  permissions and support for vDSO exceptions fixup which will is used
  by SGX enclaves.

  All this work by Sean Christopherson, Jarkko Sakkinen and many others"

<title>USB: UAS: introduce a quirk to set no_write_same</title>

UAS does not share the pessimistic assumption storage is making that
devices cannot deal with WRITE_SAME.  A few devices supported by UAS,
are reported to not deal well with WRITE_SAME. Those need a quirk.

Add it to the device that needs it.
