Pull pin control updates from Linus Walleij: "This is the bulk of pin control changes for the v4.15 kernel cycle: Core: - The pin control Kconfig entry PINCTRL is now turned into a menuconfig option. This obviously has the implication of making the subsystem menu visible in menuconfig. This is happening because of two things: (a) Intel have started to deploy and depend on pin controllers in a way that is affecting users directly. This happens on the highly integrated laptop chipsets named after geographical places: baytrail, broxton, cannonlake, cedarfork, cherryview, denverton, geminilake, lewisburg, merrifield, sunrisepoint... It started a while back and now it is ever more evident that this is crucial infrastructure for x86 laptops and not an embedded obscurity anymore. Users need to be aware. (b) Pin control expanders on I2C and SPI that are arch-agnostic. Currently Semtech SX150X and Microchip MCP28x08 but more are expected. Users will have to be able to configure these in directly for their set-up. - Just go and select GPIOLIB now that we made sure that GPIOLIB is a very vanilla subsystem. Do not depend on it, if we need it, select it. - Exposing the pin control subsystem in menuconfig uncovered a bunch of obscure bugs that are now hopefully fixed, all more or less pertaining to Blackfin. - Unified namespace for cross-calls between pin control and GPIO. - New support for clock skew/delay generic DT bindings and generic pin config options for this. - Minor documentation improvements. Various: - The Renesas SH-PFC pin controller has evolved a lot. It seems Renesas are churning out new SoCs by the minute. - A bunch of non-critical fixes for the Rockchip driver. - Improve the use of library functions instead of open coding. - Support the MCP28018 variant in the MCP28x08 driver. - Static constifying" * tag 'pinctrl-v4.15-1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/linusw/linux-pinctrl: (91 commits) pinctrl: gemini: Fix missing pad descriptions pinctrl: Add some depends on HAS_IOMEM pinctrl: samsung/s3c24xx: add CONFIG_OF dependency pinctrl: gemini: Fix GMAC groups pinctrl: qcom: spmi-gpio: Add pmi8994 gpio support pinctrl: ti-iodelay: remove redundant unused variable dev pinctrl: max77620: Use common error handling code in max77620_pinconf_set() pinctrl: gemini: Implement clock skew/delay config pinctrl: gemini: Use generic DT parser pinctrl: Add skew-delay pin config and bindings pinctrl: armada-37xx: Add edge both type gpio irq support pinctrl: uniphier: remove eMMC hardware reset pin-mux pinctrl: rockchip: Add iomux-route switching support for rk3288 pinctrl: intel: Add Intel Cedar Fork PCH pin controller support pinctrl: intel: Make offset to interrupt status register configurable pinctrl: sunxi: Enforce the strict mode by default pinctrl: sunxi: Disable strict mode for old pinctrl drivers pinctrl: sunxi: Introduce the strict flag pinctrl: sh-pfc: Save/restore registers for PSCI system suspend pinctrl: sh-pfc: r8a7796: Use generic IOCTRL register description ...

Pull power management updates from Rafael Wysocki: "There are no real big ticket items here this time. The most noticeable change is probably the relocation of the OPP (Operating Performance Points) framework to its own directory under drivers/ as it has grown big enough for that. Also Viresh is now going to maintain it and send pull requests for it to me, so you will see this change in the git history going forward (but still not right now). Another noticeable set of changes is the modifications of the PM core, the PCI subsystem and the ACPI PM domain to allow of more integration between system-wide suspend/resume and runtime PM. For now it's just a way to avoid resuming devices from runtime suspend unnecessarily during system suspend (if the driver sets a flag to indicate its readiness for that) and in the works is an analogous mechanism to allow devices to stay suspended after system resume. In addition to that, we have some changes related to supporting frequency-invariant CPU utilization metrics in the scheduler and in the schedutil cpufreq governor on ARM and changes to add support for device performance states to the generic power domains (genpd) framework. The rest is mostly fixes and cleanups of various sorts. Specifics: - Relocate the OPP (Operating Performance Points) framework to its own directory under drivers/ and add support for power domain performance states to it (Viresh Kumar). - Modify the PM core, the PCI bus type and the ACPI PM domain to support power management driver flags allowing device drivers to specify their capabilities and preferences regarding the handling of devices with enabled runtime PM during system suspend/resume and clean up that code somewhat (Rafael Wysocki, Ulf Hansson). - Add frequency-invariant accounting support to the task scheduler on ARM and ARM64 (Dietmar Eggemann). - Fix PM QoS device resume latency framework to prevent "no restriction" requests from overriding requests with specific requirements and drop the confusing PM_QOS_FLAG_REMOTE_WAKEUP device PM QoS flag (Rafael Wysocki). - Drop legacy class suspend/resume operations from the PM core and drop legacy bus type suspend and resume callbacks from ARM/locomo (Rafael Wysocki). - Add min/max frequency support to devfreq and clean it up somewhat (Chanwoo Choi). - Rework wakeup support in the generic power domains (genpd) framework and update some of its users accordingly (Geert Uytterhoeven). - Convert timers in the PM core to use timer_setup() (Kees Cook). - Add support for exposing the SLP_S0 (Low Power S0 Idle) residency counter based on the LPIT ACPI table on Intel platforms (Srinivas Pandruvada). - Add per-CPU PM QoS resume latency support to the ladder cpuidle governor (Ramesh Thomas). - Fix a deadlock between the wakeup notify handler and the notifier removal in the ACPI core (Ville Syrjälä). - Fix a cpufreq schedutil governor issue causing it to use stale cached frequency values sometimes (Viresh Kumar). - Fix an issue in the system suspend core support code causing wakeup events detection to fail in some cases (Rajat Jain). - Fix the generic power domains (genpd) framework to prevent the PM core from using the direct-complete optimization with it as that is guaranteed to fail (Ulf Hansson). - Fix a minor issue in the cpuidle core and clean it up a bit (Gaurav Jindal, Nicholas Piggin). - Fix and clean up the intel_idle and ARM cpuidle drivers (Jason Baron, Len Brown, Leo Yan). - Fix a couple of minor issues in the OPP framework and clean it up (Arvind Yadav, Fabio Estevam, Sudeep Holla, Tobias Jordan). - Fix and clean up some cpufreq drivers and fix a minor issue in the cpufreq statistics code (Arvind Yadav, Bhumika Goyal, Fabio Estevam, Gautham Shenoy, Gustavo Silva, Marek Szyprowski, Masahiro Yamada, Robert Jarzmik, Zumeng Chen). - Fix minor issues in the system suspend and hibernation core, in power management documentation and in the AVS (Adaptive Voltage Scaling) framework (Helge Deller, Himanshu Jha, Joe Perches, Rafael Wysocki). - Fix some issues in the cpupower utility and document that Shuah Khan is going to maintain it going forward (Prarit Bhargava, Shuah Khan)" * tag 'pm-4.15-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rafael/linux-pm: (88 commits) tools/power/cpupower: add libcpupower.so.0.0.1 to .gitignore tools/power/cpupower: Add 64 bit library detection intel_idle: Graceful probe failure when MWAIT is disabled cpufreq: schedutil: Reset cached_raw_freq when not in sync with next_freq freezer: Fix typo in freezable_schedule_timeout() comment PM / s2idle: Clear the events_check_enabled flag cpufreq: stats: Handle the case when trans_table goes beyond PAGE_SIZE cpufreq: arm_big_little: make cpufreq_arm_bL_ops structures const cpufreq: arm_big_little: make function arguments and structure pointer const cpuidle: Avoid assignment in if () argument cpuidle: Clean up cpuidle_enable_device() error handling a bit ACPI / PM: Fix acpi_pm_notifier_lock vs flush_workqueue() deadlock PM / Domains: Fix genpd to deal with drivers returning 1 from ->prepare() cpuidle: ladder: Add per CPU PM QoS resume latency support PM / QoS: Fix device resume latency framework PM / domains: Rework governor code to be more consistent PM / Domains: Remove gpd_dev_ops.active_wakeup() callback soc: rockchip: power-domain: Use GENPD_FLAG_ACTIVE_WAKEUP soc: mediatek: Use GENPD_FLAG_ACTIVE_WAKEUP ARM: shmobile: pm-rmobile: Use GENPD_FLAG_ACTIVE_WAKEUP ...

PM / core: Add SMART_SUSPEND driver flag

2017-11-06T12:57:01Z

Define and document a SMART_SUSPEND flag to instruct bus types and PM domains that the system suspend callbacks provided by the driver can cope with runtime-suspended devices, so from the driver's perspective it should be safe to leave devices in runtime suspend during system suspend. Setting that flag may also cause middle-layer code (bus types, PM domains etc.) to skip invocations of the ->suspend_late and ->suspend_noirq callbacks provided by the driver if the device is in runtime suspend at the beginning of the "late" phase of the system-wide suspend transition, in which case the driver's system-wide resume callbacks may be invoked back-to-back with its ->runtime_suspend callback, so the driver has to be able to cope with that too.

PM / core: Add NEVER_SKIP and SMART_PREPARE driver flags

2017-11-06T12:55:30Z

The motivation for this change is to provide a way to work around a problem with the direct-complete mechanism used for avoiding system suspend/resume handling for devices in runtime suspend. The problem is that some middle layer code (the PCI bus type and the ACPI PM domain in particular) returns positive values from its system suspend ->prepare callbacks regardless of whether the driver's ->prepare returns a positive value or 0, which effectively prevents drivers from being able to control the direct-complete feature. Some drivers need that control, however, and the PCI bus type has grown its own flag to deal with this issue, but since it is not limited to PCI, it is better to address it by adding driver flags at the core level. To that end, add a driver_flags field to struct dev_pm_info for flags that can be set by device drivers at the probe time to inform the PM core and/or bus types, PM domains and so on on the capabilities and/or preferences of device drivers. Also add two static inline helpers for setting that field and testing it against a given set of flags and make the driver core clear it automatically on driver remove and probe failures. Define and document two PM driver flags related to the direct- complete feature: NEVER_SKIP and SMART_PREPARE that can be used, respectively, to indicate to the PM core that the direct-complete mechanism should never be used for the device and to inform the middle layer code (bus types, PM domains etc) that it can only request the PM core to use the direct-complete mechanism for the device (by returning a positive value from its ->prepare callback) if it also has been requested by the driver. While at it, make the core check pm_runtime_suspended() when setting power.direct_complete so that it doesn't need to be checked by ->prepare callbacks. Signed-off-by: Rafael J.
