Pull ARM SoC driver changes from Olof Johansson:
 "A handful of driver-related changes.  We've had a bunch of them going
  in through other branches as well, so it's only a part of what we
  really have this release.

  Larger pieces are:

   - Removal of a now unused PWM driver for atmel
     [ This includes AVR32 changes that have been appropriately acked ]
   - Performance counter support for the arm CCN interconnect
   - OMAP mailbox driver cleanups and consolidation
   - PCI and SATA PHY drivers for SPEAr 13xx platforms
   - Redefinition (with backwards compatibility!) of PCI DT bindings for
     Tegra to better model regulators/power"

Note: this merge also fixes up the semantic conflict with the new
calling convention for devm_phy_create(), see commit f0ed817638b5 ("phy:
core: Let node ptr of PHY point to PHY and not of PHY provider") that
came in through Greg's USB tree.

Semantic merge patch by Stephen Rothwell &lt;sfr@canb.auug.org.au&gt; through
the next tree.

Rickard Strandqvi's ran a code analysis application which found that
jornada_lcd_get_contrast(() and jornada_lcd_set_contrast() contained
some code duplication (calling the same functions during various
code execution paths) and failed to return errors in a consistent
manner.  This patch aims to simplify the code, coercing it into
behaving at a level expected of a driver in the Linux kernel.

Pull pwm changes from Thierry Reding:
 "The majority of these changes are cleanups and fixes across all
  drivers.  Redundant error messages are removed and more PWM
  controllers set the .can_sleep flag to signal that they can't be used
  in atomic context.

  Support is added for the Broadcom Kona family of SoCs and the Intel
  LPSS driver can now probe PCI devices in addition to ACPI devices.
  Upon shutdown, the pwm-backlight driver will now power off the
  backlight.  It also uses the new descriptor-based GPIO API for more
  concise GPIO handling.

  A large chunk of these changes also converts platforms to use the
  lookup mechanism rather than relying on the global number space to
  reference PWM devices.  This is largely in preparation for more
  unification and cleanups in future patches.  Eventually it will allow
  the legacy PWM API to be removed"
