Pull ARM soc fixes from Olof Johansson:
 "A set of fixes and some minor cleanups for -rc2:

   - A series from Arnd that fixes warnings in drivers and other code
     included by ARM defconfigs.  Most have been acked by corresponding
     maintainers (and seem quite hard to argue not picking up anyway in
     the few exception cases).
   - A few misc patches from the list for integrator/vt8500/i.MX
   - A batch of fixes to OMAP platforms, fixing:
     - boot problems on beaglebone,
     - regression fixes for local timers
     - clockdomain locking fixes
     - a few boot/sparse warnings
   - For Tegra:
     - Clock rate calculation overflow fix
     - Revert a change that removed timer clocks and a fix for symbol
       name clashes
   - For Renesas:
     - IO accessor / annotation cleanups to remove warnings
   - For Kirkwood/Dove/mvebu:
     - Fixes for device trees for Dove (some minor cleanups, some fixes)
     - Fixes for the mvebu gpio driver
     - Fix build problem for Feroceon due to missing ifdefs
     - Fix lsxl DTS files"

 "Here are the USB patches against your 3.7-rc1 tree.

  There are the usual UABI header file movements, and we finally are now
  able to remove the dbg() macro that is over 15 years old (that had to
  wait for after some other trees got merged into yours during the big
  3.7-rc1 merge window.)

  Other than that, nothing major, just a number of bugfixes and new
  device ids.  It turns out that almost all of the usb-serial drivers
  had bugs in how they were handling their internal data, leaking
  memory, hence all of those fixups.

ehci_fsl_setup_phy is supposed to return an int, but had a void return
value in the case of controller_ver being invalid.

Introduced by commit 3735ba8db8e6 ("powerpc/usb: fix bug of CPU hang
when missing USB PHY clock"), which missed one return.

<title>USB: EHCI: mark ehci_orion_conf_mbus_windows __devinit</title>

<content type='text'>
The __devinit section is going away soon, but while it's
still there, we get a correct warning about
ehci_orion_conf_mbus_windows being discarded before
its caller, so it should be marked __devinit rather than
__init.

Without this patch, building dove_defconfig results in:

WARNING: drivers/usb/host/built-in.o(.devinit.text+0x8a4): Section mismatch in reference from the function ehci_orion_drv_probe() to the function .init.text:ehci_orion_conf_mbus_windows()
The function __devinit ehci_orion_drv_probe() references
a function __init ehci_orion_conf_mbus_windows().

annotate ehci_orion_conf_mbus_windows with a matching annotation.

Pull workqueue changes from Tejun Heo:
 "This is workqueue updates for v3.7-rc1.  A lot of activities this
  round including considerable API and behavior cleanups.

   * delayed_work combines a timer and a work item.  The handling of the
     timer part has always been a bit clunky leading to confusing
     cancelation API with weird corner-case behaviors.  delayed_work is
     updated to use new IRQ safe timer and cancelation now works as
     expected.

   * Another deficiency of delayed_work was lack of the counterpart of
     mod_timer() which led to cancel+queue combinations or open-coded
     timer+work usages.  mod_delayed_work[_on]() are added.

     These two delayed_work changes make delayed_work provide interface
     and behave like timer which is executed with process context.

   * A work item could be executed concurrently on multiple CPUs, which
     is rather unintuitive and made flush_work() behavior confusing and
     half-broken under certain circumstances.  This problem doesn't
     exist for non-reentrant workqueues.  While non-reentrancy check
     isn't free, the overhead is incurred only when a work item bounces
     across different CPUs and even in simulated pathological scenario
     the overhead isn't too high.

     All workqueues are made non-reentrant.  This removes the
     distinction between flush_[delayed_]work() and
     flush_[delayed_]_work_sync().  The former is now as strong as the

Pull workqueue changes from Tejun Heo:
 "This is workqueue updates for v3.7-rc1.  A lot of activities this
  round including considerable API and behavior cleanups.

   * delayed_work combines a timer and a work item.  The handling of the
     timer part has always been a bit clunky leading to confusing
     cancelation API with weird corner-case behaviors.  delayed_work is
     updated to use new IRQ safe timer and cancelation now works as
     expected.

   * Another deficiency of delayed_work was lack of the counterpart of
     mod_timer() which led to cancel+queue combinations or open-coded
     timer+work usages.  mod_delayed_work[_on]() are added.

     These two delayed_work changes make delayed_work provide interface
     and behave like timer which is executed with process context.

   * A work item could be executed concurrently on multiple CPUs, which
     is rather unintuitive and made flush_work() behavior confusing and
     half-broken under certain circumstances.  This problem doesn't
     exist for non-reentrant workqueues.  While non-reentrancy check
     isn't free, the overhead is incurred only when a work item bounces
     across different CPUs and even in simulated pathological scenario
     the overhead isn't too high.

     All workqueues are made non-reentrant.  This removes the
     distinction between flush_[delayed_]work() and
     flush_[delayed_]_work_sync().  The former is now as strong as the
     latter and the specified work item is guaranteed to have finished
     execution of any previous queueing on return.

   * In addition to the various bug fixes, Lai redid and simplified CPU
     hotplug handling significantly.

   * Joonsoo introduced system_highpri_wq and used it during CPU

Pull ARM soc multiplatform enablement from Olof Johansson:
 "This is a pretty significant branch.  It's the introduction of the
  first multiplatform support on ARM, and with this (and the later
  branch) merged, it is now possible to build one kernel that contains
  support for highbank, vexpress, mvebu, socfpga, and picoxcell.  More
  platforms will be convered over in the next few releases.

  Two critical last things had to be done for this to be practical and
  possible:
   * Today each platform has its own include directory under
     mach-&lt;mach&gt;/include/mach/*, and traditionally that is where a lot
     of driver/platform shared definitions have gone, such as platform
     data structures.  They now need to move out to a common location
     instead, and this branch moves a large number of those out to
     include/linux/platform_data.
   * Each platform used to list the device trees to compile for its
     boards in mach-&lt;mach&gt;/Makefile.boot.

  Both of the above changes will mean that there are some merge
  conflicts to come (and some to resolve here).  It's a one-time move
  and once it settles in, we should be good for quite a while.  Sorry
  for the overhead."

Fix conflicts as per Olof.
