Linux 4.9-rc5

amd, radeon, i915, imx, msm and udl fixes

sound fixes for 4.9-rc5

this became a largish pull-request, as we've got a bunch of pending
ASoC fixes at this time.  One noticeable change is the removal of
error directive in uapi/sound/asoc.h.  We found that the API has
been already used on Chromebooks, so we need to support it even now.

A slight big LOC is found in Qualcomm lpass driver, but the rest are
all small and easy fixes for ASoC drivers (sti, sun4i, Realtek codecs,
Intel, tas571x, etc) in addition to the patches to harden the ALSA
core proc file accesses.

- gpu idling rework for s/r (Imre)
- vlv mappable scanout fix
- speed up probing in resume (Lyude)
- dp audio workarounds for gen9 (Dhinakaran)
- more conversion to using dev_priv internally (Ville)
- more gen9+ wm fixes and cleanups (Maarten)
- shrinker cleanup&fixes (Chris)
- reorg plane init code (Ville)
- implement support for multiple timelines (prep work for scheduler)
  from Chris and all
- untangle dev->struct_mutex locking as prep for multiple timelines
  (Chris)
- refactor bxt phy code and collect it all in intel_dpio_phy.c (Ander)
- another gvt with bugfixes all over from Zhenyu
- piles of lspcon fixes from Imre
- 90/270 rotation fixes (Ville)
- guc log buffer support (Akash+Sagar)
- fbc fixes from Paulo
- untangle rpm vs. tiling-fences/mmaps (Chris)
- fix atomic commit to wait on the right fences (Daniel Stone)

Linux 4.9-rc4

drm fixes for amdgpu, radeon, intel, imx and virtio-gpu

Linux 4.9-rc3

sound fixes for 4.9-rc3

Here contains the usual stuff -- the fixups and quirks for HD-audio
and USB-audio, in addition to a bad regression fix in ALSA sequencer
timer since 4.8, and a trivial fix for asihpi PCI driver.

patches to fix a regression in 4.9-rc1 on x86 PAT

- first slice of the gvt device model (Zhenyu et al)
- compression support for gpu error states (Chris)
- sunset clause on gpu errors resulting in dmesg noise telling users
  how to report them
- .rodata diet from Tvrtko
- switch over lots of macros to only take dev_priv (Tvrtko)
- underrun suppression for dp link training (Ville)
- lspcon (hmdi 2.0 on skl/bxt) support from Shashank Sharma, polish
  from Jani
- gen9 wm fixes from Paulo&Lyude
- updated ddi programming for kbl (Rodrigo)
- respect alternate aux/ddc pins (from vbt) for all ddi ports (Ville)

Linux 4.9-rc2

drm fixes for 4.9 rc2 - vmware, fsl-dcu, armada and etnaviv

drm: amdgpu/radeon and one core regression fix

Linux 4.9-rc1

sound fixes for 4.9-rc1

Just a few trivial small fixes.

- dsi/backlight fixes (Jani&Shawn)
- a few reset improvements (Ben, Chris, Imre)
- refactor port tracking for audio support (Dhinakaran)
- a pile of gen9 wm fixes from Paulo
- drop skl pre-production w/a (Jani)
- refactor forcewake and shadow reg filters into tables, and unify the
  funcs/macros using them across platforms (Tvrtko)
- fix DP detection to not require an edid (Ville)
- register shadow VGA port (for testing), from Ville

sound updates for 4.9-rc1

Again the diffstat shows a widely distributed pattern at this cycle,
as there've been many code cleanups and refactoring allover the places.
Other than that, the development was relatively calm, and no big
surprise shouldn't be expected.  Here are some highlights:

Core:
- Sequencer code refactoring / documentation updates
- TLV code moved to uapi, following some relevant cleanups

USB-Audio:
- Lots of LINE6 driver fixes / updates
- DragonFly and TEAC device quirk updates

HD-audio:
- Usual fixupes for Dell, Lenovo and HP machines
- Link-audio time reporting capability

ASoC:
- Large refactoring of simple-card code to be shared with rcar
  driver
- Removal of some duplicated ops over lots of CODEC drivers
- Again quite a few Intel SKL driver updates
- New drivers for Nuvoton NAU88C10, Realtek RT5660 and RT5663
