On some platforms there's an ITS available but it's not enabled
because reading or writing the registers is denied by the
firmware. In fact, reading or writing them will cause the system
to reset. We could remove the node from DT in such a case, but
it's better to skip nodes that are marked as "disabled" in DT so
that we can describe the hardware that exists and use the status
property to indicate how the firmware has configured things.

<title>vfs: do bulk POLL* -&gt; EPOLL* replacement</title>

<content type='text'>
This is the mindless scripted replacement of kernel use of POLL*
variables as described by Al, done by this script:

    for V in IN OUT PRI ERR RDNORM RDBAND WRNORM WRBAND HUP RDHUP NVAL MSG; do
        L=`git grep -l -w POLL$V | grep -v '^t' | grep -v /um/ | grep -v '^sa' | grep -v '/poll.h$'|grep -v '^D'`
        for f in $L; do sed -i "-es/^\([^\"]*\)\(\&lt;POLL$V\&gt;\)/\\1E\\2/" $f; done
    done

with de-mangling cleanups yet to come.

NOTE! On almost all architectures, the EPOLL* constants have the same
values as the POLL* constants do.  But they keyword here is "almost".
For various bad reasons they aren't the same, and epoll() doesn't
actually work quite correctly in some cases due to this on Sparc et al.

The next patch from Al will sort out the final differences, and we
should be all done.

Pull more power management updates from Rafael Wysocki:
 "These are mostly fixes and cleanups and removal of the no longer
  needed at32ap-cpufreq driver.

  Specifics:

   - Drop the at32ap-cpufreq driver which is useless after the removal
     of the corresponding arch (Corentin LABBE).

   - Fix a regression from the 4.14 cycle in the APM idle driver by
     making it initialize the polling state properly (Rafael Wysocki).

   - Fix a crash on failing system suspend due to a missing check in the
     cpufreq core (Bo Yan).

   - Make the intel_pstate driver initialize the hardware-managed
     P-state control (HWP) feature on CPU0 upon resume from system
     suspend if HWP had been enabled before the system was suspended
     (Chen Yu).

   - Fix up the SCPI cpufreq driver after recent changes (Sudeep Holla,
     Wei Yongjun).

   - Avoid pointer subtractions during frequency table walks in cpufreq
     (Dominik Brodowski).

   - Avoid the check for ProcFeedback in ST/CZ in the cpufreq driver for
     AMD processors and add a MODULE_ALIAS for cpufreq on ARM IMX (Akshu
     Agrawal, Nicolas Chauvet).

   - Fix the prototype of swsusp_arch_resume() on x86 (Arnd Bergmann).

   - Fix up the parsing of power domains DT data (Ulf Hansson)"

Pointer subtraction is slow and tedious. Therefore, replace all instances
where cpufreq_for_each_{valid_,}entry loops contained such substractions
with an iteration macro providing an index to the frequency_table entry.

Blank help texts are probably either a typo, a Kconfig misunderstanding,
or some kind of half-committing to adding a help text (in which case a
TODO comment would be clearer, if the help text really can't be added
right away).

Best to remove them, IMO.

Blank help texts are probably either a typo, a Kconfig misunderstanding,
or some kind of half-committing to adding a help text (in which case a
TODO comment would be clearer, if the help text really can't be added
right away).

Best to remove them, IMO.

Pull drm updates from Dave Airlie:
 "This seems to have been a comparatively quieter merge window, I assume
  due to holidays etc. The "biggest" change is AMD header cleanups, which
  merge/remove a bunch of them. The AMD gpu scheduler is now being made generic
  with the etnaviv driver wanting to reuse the code, hopefully other drivers
  can go in the same direction.

  Otherwise it's the usual lots of stuff in i915/amdgpu, not so much stuff
  elsewhere.

  Core:
   - Add .last_close and .output_poll_changed helpers to reduce driver footprints
   - Fix plane clipping
   - Improved debug printing support
   - Add panel orientation property
   - Update edid derived properties at edid setting
   - Reduction in fbdev driver footprint
   - Move amdgpu scheduler into core for other drivers to use.

  i915:
   - Selftest and IGT improvements
   - Fast boot prep work on IPS, pipe config
   - HW workarounds for Cannonlake, Geminilake
   - Cannonlake clock and HDMI2.0 fixes
   - GPU cache invalidation and context switch improvements
   - Display planes cleanup
   - New PMU interface for perf queries
   - New firmware support for KBL/SKL
   - Geminilake HW workaround for perforamce
   - Coffeelake stolen memory improvements
   - GPU reset robustness work
   - Cannonlake horizontal plane flipping
   - GVT work

  amdgpu/radeon:
   - RV and Vega header file cleanups (lots of lines gone!)
   - TTM operation context support
   - 48-bit GPUVM support for Vega/RV
   - ECC support for Vega
   - Resizeable BAR support
   - Multi-display sync support
   - Enable swapout for reserved BOs during allocation
   - S3 fixes on Raven
   - GPU reset cleanup and fixes
   - 2+1 level GPU page table

  amdkfd:
   - GFX7/8 SDMA user queues support
   - Hardware scheduling for multiple processes
   - dGPU prep work

  rcar:
   - Added R8A7743/5 support
   - System suspend/resume support

  sun4i:
   - Multi-plane support for YUV formats
   - A83T and LVDS support

  msm:
   - Devfreq support for GPU

  tegra:
   - Prep work for adding Tegra186 support
   - Tegra186 HDMI support
   - HDMI2.0 and zpos support by using generic helpers

  tilcdc:
   - Misc fixes

  omapdrm:
   - Support memory bandwidth limits
   - DSI command mode panel cleanups
   - DMM error handling

  exynos:
   - drop the old IPP subdriver.

  etnaviv:
   - Occlusion query fixes
   - Job handling fixes
   - Prep work for hooking in gpu scheduler

  armada:
   - Move closer to atomic modesetting
   - Allow disabling primary plane if overlay is full screen

  imx:
   - Format modifier support
   - Add tile prefetch to PRE
   - Runtime PM support for PRG

  ast:
   - fix LUT loading"

* tag 'drm-for-v4.16' of git://people.freedesktop.org/~airlied/linux: (1471 commits)
  drm/ast: Load lut in crtc_commit
  drm: Check for lessee in DROP_MASTER ioctl
  drm: fix gpu scheduler link order
  drm/amd/display: Demote error print to debug print when ATOM impl missing
  dma-buf: fix reservation_object_wait_timeout_rcu once more v2
  drm/amdgpu: Avoid leaking PM domain on driver unbind (v2)
  drm/amd/amdgpu: Add Polaris version check
  drm/amdgpu: Reenable manual GPU reset from sysfs
  drm/amdgpu: disable MMHUB power gating on raven
  drm/ttm: Don't unreserve swapped BOs that were previously reserved
  drm/ttm: Don't add swapped BOs to swap-LRU list
  drm/amdgpu: only check for ECC on Vega10
  drm/amd/powerplay: Fix smu_table_entry.handle type
  drm/ttm: add VADDR_FLAG_UPDATED_COUNT to correctly update dma_page global count
  drm: Fix PANEL_ORIENTATION_QUIRKS breaking the Kconfig DRM menuconfig
  drm/radeon: fill in rb backend map on evergreen/ni.
  drm/amdgpu/gfx9: fix ngg enablement to clear gds reserved memory (v2)
  drm/ttm: only free pages rather than update global memory count together
  drm/amdgpu: fix CPU based VM updates
  drm/amdgpu: fix typo in amdgpu_vce_validate_bo

Pull Kconfig updates from Masahiro Yamada:
 "A pretty big batch of Kconfig updates.

  I have to mention the lexer and parser of Kconfig are now built from
  real .l and .y sources. So, flex and bison are the requirement for
  building the kernel. Both of them (unlike gperf) have been stable for
  a long time. This change has been tested several weeks in linux-next,
  and I did not receive any problem report about this.

  Summary:

   - add checks for mistakes, like the choice default is not in choice,
     help is doubled

   - document data structure and complex code

   - fix various memory leaks

   - change Makefile to build lexer and parser instead of using
     pre-generated C files

   - drop 'boolean' keyword, which is equivalent to 'bool'

   - use default 'yy' prefix and remove unneeded Make variables

   - fix gettext() check for xconfig

   - announce that oldnoconfig will be finally removed

   - make 'Selected by:' and 'Implied by' readable in help and search
     result

   - hide silentoldconfig from 'make help' to stop confusing people

   - fix misc things and cleanups"
