TI LP8788 PMU supports regulators, battery charger, RTC, ADC, backlight
dri= ver and current sinks.  This patch enables LP8788 backlight module.

(Brightness mode)
The brightness is controlled by PWM input or I2C register.
All modes are supported in the driver.

(Platform data)
Configurable data can be defined in the platform side.
 name                  : backlight driver name. (default: "lcd-backlight")
 initial_brightness    : initial value of backlight brightness
 bl_mode               : brightness control by PWM or lp8788 register
 dim_mode              : dimming mode selection
 full_scale            : full scale current setting
 rise_time             : brightness ramp up step time
 fall_time             : brightness ramp down step time
 pwm_pol               : PWM polarity setting when bl_mode is PWM based
 period_ns             : platform specific PWM period value. unit is nano.

The default values are set in case no platform data is defined.

This patch makes power_on() call optional.  The voltage source can be
provided to some boards using ams369fg06 panel, thus in this case, power
on/off sequence is not necessary.

Pull vfs pile (part one) from Al Viro:

  locking violations, etc.

  The most visible changes here are death of FS_REVAL_DOT (replaced with
  "has -&gt;d_weak_revalidate()") and a new helper getting from struct file
  to inode.  Some bits of preparation to xattr method interface changes.

  Misc patches by various people sent this cycle *and* ocfs2 fixes from
  several cycles ago that should've been upstream right then.

  PS: the next vfs pile will be xattr stuff."

  ocfs2/dlm: use GFP_ATOMIC inside a spin_lock

Pull PWM changes from Thierry Reding:
 "A new driver has been added to support the PWM mode of the timer
  counter blocks found on Atmel AT91 SoCs.  The VT8500 driver now
  supports changing the PWM signal polarity and the TI drivers (EHRPWM
  and ECAP) gained suspend and resume functionality.

  User drivers can now query the core for whether access to a PWM device
  will sleep (if the PWM chip is on a slow bus such as I2C or SPI).

  The pwm-backlight driver now handles the backlight BL_CORE_FBBLANK
  state in addition to the FB layer's blanking states.

  To round things off, a few fixes and cleanups are also included"

  pwm: twl: Use to_twl() instead of container_of()
  pwm: tegra: assume CONFIG_OF
  pwm_backlight: Validate dft_brightness in main probe function
  pwm: Export pwm_{set,get}_chip_data()
  pwm: Make Kconfig entries more consistent

Pull drm merge from Dave Airlie:
 "Highlights:

   - TI OMAP KMS driver merged from staging

   - drop gma500 stub driver

   - the fbcon locking fixes

   - the vgacon dirty like zebra fix.

   - open firmware videomode and hdmi common code helpers

   - major locking rework for kms object handling - pageflip/cursor
     won't block on polling anymore!

   - fbcon helper and prime helper cleanups

   - i915: all over the map, haswell power well enhancements, valleyview
     macro horrors cleaned up, killing lots of legacy GTT code,

   - radeon: CS ioctl unification, deprecated UMS support, gpu reset
     rework, VM fixes

   - nouveau: reworked thermal code, external dp/tmds encoder support
     (anx9805), fences sleep instead of polling,

   - exynos: all over the driver fixes."

Pull MFS updates from Samuel Ortiz:
 "This is the MFD pull request for the 3.9 merge window.

  No new drivers this time, but a bunch of fairly big cleanups:

   - Roger Quadros worked on a OMAP USBHS and TLL platform data
     consolidation, OMAP5 support and clock management code cleanup.

   - The first step of a major sync for the ab8500 driver from Lee
     Jones.  In particular, the debugfs and the sysct interfaces got
     extended and improved.

   - Peter Ujfalusi sent a nice patchset for cleaning and fixing the
     twl-core driver, with a much needed module id lookup code
     improvement.

   - The regular wm5102 and arizona cleanups and fixes from Mark Brown.

   - Laxman Dewangan extended the palmas APIs in order to implement the
     palmas GPIO and rt drivers.

   - Laxman also added DT support for the tps65090 driver.

   - The Intel SCH and ICH drivers got a couple fixes from Aaron Sierra
     and Darren Hart.

   - Linus Walleij patchset for the ab8500 driver allowed ab8500 and
     ab9540 based devices to switch to the new abx500 pin-ctrl driver.

   - The max8925 now has device tree and irqdomain support thanks to
     Qing Xu.

   - The recently added rtsx driver got a few cleanups and fixes for a
     better card detection code path and now also supports the RTS5227
     chipset, thanks to Wei Wang and Roger Tseng."

Pull powerpc updates from Benjamin Herrenschmidt:
 "So from the depth of frozen Minnesota, here's the powerpc pull request
  for 3.9.  It has a few interesting highlights, in addition to the
  usual bunch of bug fixes, minor updates, embedded device tree updates
  and new boards:

   - Hand tuned asm implementation of SHA1 (by Paulus &amp; Michael
     Ellerman)

   - Support for Doorbell interrupts on Power8 (kind of fast
     thread-thread IPIs) by Ian Munsie

   - Long overdue cleanup of the way we handle relocation of our open
     firmware trampoline (prom_init.c) on 64-bit by Anton Blanchard

   - Support for saving/restoring &amp; context switching the PPR (Processor
     Priority Register) on server processors that support it.  This
     allows the kernel to preserve thread priorities established by
     userspace.  By Haren Myneni.

   - DAWR (new watchpoint facility) support on Power8 by Michael Neuling

   - Ability to change the DSCR (Data Stream Control Register) which
     controls cache prefetching on a running process via ptrace by
     Alexey Kardashevskiy

   - Support for context switching the TAR register on Power8 (new
     branch target register meant to be used by some new specific
     userspace perf event interrupt facility which is yet to be enabled)
     by Ian Munsie.

   - Improve preservation of the CFAR register (which captures the
     origin of a branch) on various exception conditions by Paulus.

   - Move the Bestcomm DMA driver from arch powerpc to drivers/dma where
     it belongs by Philippe De Muyter

   - Support for Transactional Memory on Power8 by Michael Neuling
     (based on original work by Matt Evans).  For those curious about
     the feature, the patch contains a pretty good description."

(See commit db8ff907027b: "powerpc: Documentation for transactional
memory on powerpc" for the mentioned description added to the file
Documentation/powerpc/transactional_memory.txt)
