Merge tag 'pm-4.15-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rafael/linux-pm
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)"

Merge tag 'asoc-v4.15' of https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/broonie/sound into for-linus
ASoC: Updates for v4.15
The biggest thing this release has been the conversion of the AC98 bus to the driver model, that's been a long time coming so thanks to Robert Jarzmik for his dedication there. Due to there being some AC97 MFD there's a few fairly large changes in input and the MFD layer, mainly to the wm97xx driver.
There's also some drivers/drm changes to support the new AMD Stoney platform, these are shared with the DRM subsystem and should be being merged via both.
Within the subsystem the overwhelming bulk of the changes is in the Intel drivers which continue to need lots of cleanups and fixes, this release they've also gained support for their open source firmware. There's also some large changs in the core as Morimoto-san continues to mirror operations into the component level in preparation for conversion of drivers to that.
- The AC97 bus has finally caught up with the driver model thanks to some dedicated and persistent work from Robert Jarzmik. - Continued work from Morimoto-san on moving us towards being able to use components for everything. - Lots of cleanups for the Intel platform code, including support for their open source audio firmware. - Support for scaling MCLK with sample rate in simple-card. - Support for AMD Stoney platform.

Merge tag 'spdx_identifiers-4.14-rc8' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/driver-core
Pull initial SPDX identifiers from Greg KH: "License cleanup: add SPDX license identifiers to some files
Many source files in the tree are missing licensing information, which makes it harder for compliance tools to determine the correct license.
By default all files without license information are under the default license of the kernel, which is GPL version 2.
Update the files which contain no license information with the 'GPL-2.0' SPDX license identifier. The SPDX identifier is a legally binding shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text.
This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and Philippe Ombredanne.
How this work was done:
Patches were generated and checked against linux-4.14-rc6 for a subset of the use cases:
- file had no licensing information it it.
- file was a */uapi/* one with no licensing information in it,
- file was a */uapi/* one with existing licensing information,
Further patches will be generated in subsequent months to fix up cases where non-standard license headers were used, and references to license had to be inferred by heuristics based on keywords.
The analysis to determine which SPDX License Identifier to be applied to a file was done in a spreadsheet of side by side results from of the output of two independent scanners (ScanCode & Windriver) producing SPDX tag:value files created by Philippe Ombredanne. Philippe prepared the base worksheet, and did an initial spot review of a few 1000 files.
The 4.13 kernel was the starting point of the analysis with 60,537 files assessed. Kate Stewart did a file by file comparison of the scanner results in the spreadsheet to determine which SPDX license identifier(s) to be applied to the file. She confirmed any determination that was not immediately clear with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.
Criteria used to select files for SPDX license identifier tagging was:
- Files considered eligible had to be source code files.
- Make and config files were included as candidates if they contained >5 lines of source
- File already had some variant of a license header in it (even if <5 lines).
All documentation files were explicitly excluded.
The following heuristics were used to determine which SPDX license identifiers to apply.
- when both scanners couldn't find any license traces, file was considered to have no license information in it, and the top level COPYING file license applied.
For non */uapi/* files that summary was:
SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------- GPL-2.0 11139
and resulted in the first patch in this series.
If that file was a */uapi/* path one, it was "GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note" otherwise it was "GPL-2.0". Results of that was:
SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------- GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 930
and resulted in the second patch in this series.
- if a file had some form of licensing information in it, and was one of the */uapi/* ones, it was denoted with the Linux-syscall-note if any GPL family license was found in the file or had no licensing in it (per prior point). Results summary:
SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------ GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 270 GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 169 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-2-Clause) 21 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 17 LGPL-2.1+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 15 GPL-1.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 14 ((GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 5 LGPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 4 LGPL-2.1 WITH Linux-syscall-note 3 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR MIT) 3 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) AND MIT) 1
and that resulted in the third patch in this series.
- when the two scanners agreed on the detected license(s), that became the concluded license(s).
- when there was disagreement between the two scanners (one detected a license but the other didn't, or they both detected different licenses) a manual inspection of the file occurred.
- In most cases a manual inspection of the information in the file resulted in a clear resolution of the license that should apply (and which scanner probably needed to revisit its heuristics).
- When it was not immediately clear, the license identifier was confirmed with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.
- If there was any question as to the appropriate license identifier, the file was flagged for further research and to be revisited later in time.
In total, over 70 hours of logged manual review was done on the spreadsheet to determine the SPDX license identifiers to apply to the source files by Kate, Philippe, Thomas and, in some cases, confirmation by lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.
Kate also obtained a third independent scan of the 4.13 code base from FOSSology, and compared selected files where the other two scanners disagreed against that SPDX file, to see if there was new insights. The Windriver scanner is based on an older version of FOSSology in part, so they are related.
Thomas did random spot checks in about 500 files from the spreadsheets for the uapi headers and agreed with SPDX license identifier in the files he inspected. For the non-uapi files Thomas did random spot checks in about 15000 files.
In initial set of patches against 4.14-rc6, 3 files were found to have copy/paste license identifier errors, and have been fixed to reflect the correct identifier.
Additionally Philippe spent 10 hours this week doing a detailed manual inspection and review of the 12,461 patched files from the initial patch version early this week with:
- a full scancode scan run, collecting the matched texts, detected license ids and scores
- reviewing anything where there was a license detected (about 500+ files) to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct
- reviewing anything where there was no detection but the patch license was not GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct
This produced a worksheet with 20 files needing minor correction. This worksheet was then exported into 3 different .csv files for the different types of files to be modified.
These .csv files were then reviewed by Greg. Thomas wrote a script to parse the csv files and add the proper SPDX tag to the file, in the format that the file expected. This script was further refined by Greg based on the output to detect more types of files automatically and to distinguish between header and source .c files (which need different comment types.) Finally Greg ran the script using the .csv files to generate the patches.

- If there was any question as to the appropriate license identifier, the file was flagged for further research and to be revisited later in time.
In total, over 70 hours of logged manual review was done on the spreadsheet to determine the SPDX license identifiers to apply to the source files by Kate, Philippe, Thomas and, in some cases, confirmation by lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.
Kate also obtained a third independent scan of the 4.13 code base from FOSSology, and compared selected files where the other two scanners disagreed against that SPDX file, to see if there was new insights. The Windriver scanner is based on an older version of FOSSology in part, so they are related.
Thomas did random spot checks in about 500 files from the spreadsheets for the uapi headers and agreed with SPDX license identifier in the files he inspected. For the non-uapi files Thomas did random spot checks in about 15000 files.
In initial set of patches against 4.14-rc6, 3 files were found to have copy/paste license identifier errors, and have been fixed to reflect the correct identifier.
Additionally Philippe spent 10 hours this week doing a detailed manual inspection and review of the 12,461 patched files from the initial patch version early this week with: - a full scancode scan run, collecting the matched texts, detected license ids and scores - reviewing anything where there was a license detected (about 500+ files) to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct - reviewing anything where there was no detection but the patch license was not GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct
This produced a worksheet with 20 files needing minor correction. This worksheet was then exported into 3 different .csv files for the different types of files to be modified.
These .csv files were then reviewed by Greg. Thomas wrote a script to parse the csv files and add the proper SPDX tag to the file, in the format that the file expected. This script was further refined by Greg based on the output to detect more types of files automatically and to distinguish between header and source .c files (which need different comment types.) Finally Greg ran the script using the .csv files to generate the patches.

arm64: wire cpu-invariant accounting support up to the task scheduler
Commit 8cd5601c5060 ("sched/fair: Convert arch_scale_cpu_capacity() from weak function to #define") changed the wiring which now has to be done by associating arch_scale_cpu_capacity with the actual implementation provided by the architecture.
Define arch_scale_cpu_capacity to use the arch_topology "driver" function topology_get_cpu_scale() for the task scheduler's cpu-invariant accounting instead of the default arch_scale_cpu_capacity() in kernel/sched/sched.h.
