d2aae47f80 ASoC: add sport driver for bf6xx soc
The SPORT(Serial Port) module on bf6xx soc has a totally different ip
comparing to bf5xx soc. An individual SPORT module consists of two
independently configurable SPORT halves with identical functionality.
Each SPORT half can be configured for either transmitter or receiver.

46c1dd0c7f cfg80211: fix regression in multi-vif AP start
Commit "cfg80211: provide channel to start_ap function" assumes that the
channel is always passed to the NL80211_CMD_START_AP command, however
in case of multi-BSSID, hostapd only passes the channel for the first vif.
This makes starting beaconing on secondary vifs fail with -EINVAL.

Fix this by storing the channel provided to .start_ap in wdev->preset_chan
and picking the first AP vif's channel for secondary vifs if not provided.

6df653c71e mac80211: initialize sta pointer to avoid false-positive warning
Some compilers (eg. gcc 4.4.1 for ARM) report a false positive warning
in mlme.c:

net/mac80211/mlme.c: In function 'ieee80211_prep_connection':
net/mac80211/mlme.c:3035: warning: 'sta' may be used uninitialized in this function

This is a false positive because the place where 'sta' is used is
inside an if with the same condition of where it is set:

[...]
        if (!have_sta) {
                sta = sta_info_alloc(sdata, cbss->bssid, GFP_KERNEL);
                if (!sta)
                        return -ENOMEM;
        }
[...]
        if (!have_sta) {
[...]
                sta->sta.supp_rates[cbss->channel->band] = rates;
[...]

For some reason the compiler doesn't understand this and warns.

While this is not a problem in the code itself, we can avoid polluting
the build logs with false positives by setting sta to NULL on
declaration and checking for sta instead of !have_sta in the second if.

b3c185a761 sh: pfc: Split out gpio chip support.
This implements a bit of rework for the PFC code, making the core itself
slightly more pluggable and moving out the gpio chip handling completely.

The API is preserved in such a way that platforms that depend on it for
early configuration are still able to do so, while making it possible to
migrate to alternate interfaces going forward.

This is the first step of chainsawing necessary to support the pinctrl
API, with the eventual goal being able to decouple pin function state
from the gpio API while retaining gpio chip tie-in for gpio pin functions
only, relying on the pinctrl/pinmux API for non-gpio function demux.

21cd683d31 ALSA: hda - Fix the pin nid assignment in patch_hdmi.c
This fixes the regression introduced by the commit d0b1252d for
refactoring simple_hdmi*().  The pin NID wasn't assigned correctly.

43d77867a4 slub: refactoring unfreeze_partials()
Current implementation of unfreeze_partials() is so complicated,
but benefit from it is insignificant. In addition many code in
do {} while loop have a bad influence to a fail rate of cmpxchg_double_slab.
Under current implementation which test status of cpu partial slab
and acquire list_lock in do {} while loop,
we don't need to acquire a list_lock and gain a little benefit
when front of the cpu partial slab is to be discarded, but this is a rare case.
In case that add_partial is performed and cmpxchg_double_slab is failed,
remove_partial should be called case by case.

I think that these are disadvantages of current implementation,
so I do refactoring unfreeze_partials().

Minimizing code in do {} while loop introduce a reduced fail rate
of cmpxchg_double_slab. Below is output of 'slabinfo -r kmalloc-256'
when './perf stat -r 33 hackbench 50 process 4000 > /dev/null' is done.

** before **
Cmpxchg_double Looping
------------------------
Locked Cmpxchg Double redos   182685
Unlocked Cmpxchg Double redos 0

** after **
Cmpxchg_double Looping
------------------------
Locked Cmpxchg Double redos   177995
Unlocked Cmpxchg Double redos 1

We can see cmpxchg_double_slab fail rate is improved slightly.

Bolow is output of './perf stat -r 30 hackbench 50 process 4000 > /dev/null'.

d24ac77f71 slub: use __cmpxchg_double_slab() at interrupt disabled place
get_freelist(), unfreeze_partials() are only called with interrupt disabled,
so __cmpxchg_double_slab() is suitable.
