ASoC: fixes for 3.4

A bunch of driver-specific fixes and one generic fix for the new support
for platform DAPM contexts - we were picking the wrong default for the
idle_bias_off setting which was meaning we weren't actually achieving
any useful runtime PM on platform devices.

cgroup/for-3.5 contains the following changes which blk-cgroup needs
to proceed with the on-going cleanup.

* Dynamic addition and removal of cftypes to make config/stat file
handling modular for policies.

* cgroup removal update to not wait for css references to drain to fix
blkcg removal hang caused by cfq caching cfqgs.

Pull in cgroup/for-3.5 into block/for-3.5/core. This causes the
following conflicts in block/blk-cgroup.c.

* 761b3ef50e "cgroup: remove cgroup_subsys argument from callbacks"
conflicts with blkiocg_pre_destroy() addition and blkiocg_attach()
removal. Resolved by removing @subsys from all subsys methods.

* 676f7c8f84 "cgroup: relocate cftype and cgroup_subsys definitions in
controllers" conflicts with ->pre_destroy() and ->attach() updates
and removal of modular config. Resolved by dropping forward
declarations of the methods and applying updates to the relocated
blkio_subsys.

* 4baf6e3325 "cgroup: convert all non-memcg controllers to the new
cftype interface" builds upon the previous item. Resolved by adding
->base_cftypes to the relocated blkio_subsys.

smp: introduce a generic on_each_cpu_mask() function

We have lots of infrastructure in place to partition multi-core systems
such that we have a group of CPUs that are dedicated to specific task:
cgroups, scheduler and interrupt affinity, and cpuisol= boot parameter.
Still, kernel code will at times interrupt all CPUs in the system via IPIs
for various needs. These IPIs are useful and cannot be avoided
altogether, but in certain cases it is possible to interrupt only specific
CPUs that have useful work to do and not the entire system.

This patch set, inspired by discussions with Peter Zijlstra and Frederic
Weisbecker when testing the nohz task patch set, is a first stab at trying
to explore doing this by locating the places where such global IPI calls
are being made and turning the global IPI into an IPI for a specific group
of CPUs. The purpose of the patch set is to get feedback if this is the
right way to go for dealing with this issue and indeed, if the issue is
even worth dealing with at all. Based on the feedback from this patch set
I plan to offer further patches that address similar issue in other code
paths.

This patch creates an on_each_cpu_mask() and on_each_cpu_cond()
infrastructure API (the former derived from existing arch specific
versions in Tile and Arm) and uses them to turn several global IPI
invocation to per CPU group invocations.

Core kernel:

on_each_cpu_mask() calls a function on processors specified by cpumask,
which may or may not include the local processor.

You must not call this function with disabled interrupts or from a
hardware interrupt handler or from a bottom half handler.

arch/arm:

Note that the generic version is a little different then the Arm one:

1. It has the mask as first parameter
2. It calls the function on the calling CPU with interrupts disabled,
but this should be OK since the function is called on the other CPUs
with interrupts disabled anyway.

arch/tile:

The API is the same as the tile private one, but the generic version
also calls the function on the with interrupts disabled in UP case

This is OK since the function is called on the other CPUs
with interrupts disabled.
