 "Here are a bunch of small bug fixes for various ARM platforms, nothing
  really sticks out this week, most of either fixes bugs in code that

   - fix sama5de hardware setup of sd/mmc interface
   - proper selection of pinctrl drivers.  PIO4 is necessary for sama5d2

  berlin:
   - fix incorrect clock input for SDIO

  exynos:
   - Fix potential NULL pointer dereference in Exynos PMU driver.

  imx:
   - Fix vf610 SAI clock configuration bug which is discovered by the
     newly added master mode support in SAI audio driver.
   - Fix buggy L2 cache latency values in vf610 device trees, which may
     cause system hang when cpu runs at a higher frequency.

  ixp4xx:
   - fix prototypes for readl/writel functions

  ls2080a:
   - use little-endian register access for GPIO and SDHCI

  omap:
   - Fix clock source for ARM TWD and global timers on am437x
   - Always select REGULATOR_FIXED_VOLTAGE for omap2+ instead of when
     MACH_OMAP3_PANDORA is selected
   - Fix SPI DMA handles for dm816x as only some were mapped
   - Fix up mbox cells for dm816x to make mailbox usable

  pxa:
   - use PWM lookup table for all ezx machines

  s3c24xx:
   - Remove incorrect __init annotation from s3c24xx cpufreq driver
     structures.

  versatile:
   - fix PCI IRQ mapping on Versatile PB"

Pull block layer fixes from Jens Axboe:
 "A set of fixes for the current series.  This contains:

   - A bunch of fixes for lightnvm, should be the last round for this
     series.  From Matias and Wenwei.

   - A writeback detach inode fix from Ilya, also marked for stable.

   - A block (though it says SCSI) fix for an OOPS in SCSI runtime power
     management.

   - Module init error path fixes for null_blk from Minfei"

<title>drivers/base/memory.c: prohibit offlining of memory blocks with missing sections</title>

Commit bdee237c0343 ("x86: mm: Use 2GB memory block size on large-memory
x86-64 systems") and 982792c782ef ("x86, mm: probe memory block size for
generic x86 64bit") introduced large block sizes for x86.  This made it
possible to have multiple sections per memory block where previously,
there was a only every one section per block.

Since blocks consist of contiguous ranges of section, there can be holes
in the blocks where sections are not present.  If one attempts to
offline such a block, a crash occurs since the code is not designed to
deal with this.

This patch is a quick fix to gaurd against the crash by not allowing
blocks with non-present sections to be offlined.
