The is the bulk of GPIO changes for the v4.16 kernel cycle. Core changes: - Disallow open drain and open source flags to be set simultaneously. This doesn't make electrical sense, and would the hardware actually respond to this setting, the result would be short circuit. - ACPI GPIO has a new core infrastructure for handling quirks. The quirks are there to deal with broken ACPI tables centrally instead of pushing the work to individual drivers. In the world of BIOS writers, the ACPI tables are perfect. Until they find a mistake in it. When such a mistake is found, we can patch it with a quirk. It should never happen, the problem is that it happens. So we accomodate for it. - Several documentation updates. - Revert the patch setting up initial direction state from reading the device. This was causing bad things for drivers that can't read status on all its pins. It is only affecting debugfs information quality. - Label descriptors with the device name if no explicit label is passed in. - Pave the ground for transitioning SPI and regulators to use GPIO descriptors by implementing some quirks in the device tree GPIO parsing code. New drivers: - New driver for the Access PCIe IDIO 24 family. Other: - Major refactorings and improvements to the GPIO mockup driver used for test and verification. - Moved the AXP209 driver over to pin control since it gained a pin control back-end. These patches will appear (with the same hashes) in the pin control pull request as well. - Convert the onewire GPIO driver w1-gpio to use descriptors. This is merged here since the W1 maintainers send very few pull requests and he ACKed it. - Start to clean up driver headers using <linux/gpio.h> to just use <linux/gpio/driver.h> as appropriate.

regulator: Changes for v4.16 This is a quiet release in terms of code volume but a fairly big one in terms of framework changes - we've got one long awaited feature in the form of runtime configuration of suspend and the start of coupled regulator support too: - Support for modifying the voltage and enable configuration devices will have in suspend, contributed by Chunyan Zhang. - Support for the Spreadtrum SC2731, contributed by Erick Chen. - The start of changes to support coupled regulators from Maciej Purski, the rest of the series should arrive for v4.17.

ASoC: Updates for v4.16 With the merge window having been delayed for another week here's another batch of updates that came in during that week. There's a few important fixes in here, mainly a fix for I/O on a number of devices caused by some of the component rework and a fix for a potential issue if more than one component in a link provides compressed operations.

sound updates for 4.16-rc1 The major changes in the core API side in this cycle are the still on-going ASoC componentization works. Other than that, only few small changes such as 20bit PCM format support are found. Meanwhile the rest majority of changes are for ASoC drivers: - Large cleanups of some of the TI CODEC drivers - Continued work on Intel ASoC stuff for new quirks, ACPI GPIO handling, Kconfigs and lots of cleanups - Refactoring of the Freescale SSI driver, as preliminary work for the upcoming changes - Work on ST DFSDM driver, including the required IIO patches - New drivers for Allwinner A83T, Maxim MAX89373, SocioNext UiniPhier EVEA Tempo Semiconductor TSCS42xx and TI PCM816x, TAS5722 and TAS6424 devices - Removal of dead codes for SN95031 and board drivers Last but not least, a few HD-audio and USB-audio quirks are included as usual, too.
