<content type='text'>
The old matching algorithm was too fuzzy, causing false positives.
For example, when asked for device D connection C1 and we only find
device D connection C2, we return that as a valid match despite the
connection names being different.

Change the algorithm such that:
  An entry with a NULL ID is assumed to be a wildcard.
  If an entry has a device ID, it must match
  If an entry has a connection ID, it must match

However, we maintain the order of precidence while still only doing
a single pass over all entries: dev+con &gt; dev only &gt; con only.

The original arch/arm/include/asm/hardware/vic.h was
written for the PL190 ARM VIC implementation, and as
such does not have any information about the PL192
version.

Add details about the PL192 and PL190 specific registers
and any changes between the two units.

If it is reasonable to apply PTR_ERR to the result of calling clk_get, then
that result should first be tested with IS_ERR, not with !.

The semantic patch that makes this change is as follows:

// &lt;smpl&gt;
@@
expression E,E1;
@@

if (
-   E == NULL
+   IS_ERR(E)

        PTR_ERR(E)

<title>cpumask: make irq_set_affinity() take a const struct cpumask</title>

Impact: change existing irq_chip API

Not much point with gentle transition here: the struct irq_chip's
setaffinity method signature needs to change.

Fortunately, not widely used code, but hits a few architectures.

Note: In irq_select_affinity() I save a temporary in by mangling
irq_desc[irq].affinity directly.  Ingo, does this break anything?
