Merge tag 'char-misc-7.2-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/char-misc

Pull misc driver updates from Greg KH:
"Here is the big set of char, misc, iio, fpga, and other small driver
subsystems changes for 7.2-rc1.

Lots of little stuff in here, the majority being of course the IIO
driver updates, as a list they are:

- IIO driver updates and additions

- GPIB driver bugfixes and cleanups

- Android binder driver updates (rust and C version)

- counter driver updates

- MHI driver updates

- mei driver updates

- w1 driver updates

- interconnect driver updates

- Comedi driver fixes and updates

- some obsolete char drivers removed (applicom and dtlk)

- hwtracing driver updates

- other tiny driver updates

All of these have been in linux-next for a while with no reported
issues"

char: applicom: remove low-quality, unused driver

The applicom driver supports PCI Profibus cards from Applicom, later
acquired by Molex. It has severe coding style issues and has attracted
a number of bug and security fixes over the years, despite the fact
that no one appears to be using it. It was broken from at least the
beginning of Git history (Linux 2.6.12-rc2 in April 2005) until October
2008, when a fatal bug was fixed in commit bc20589bf1c6 ("applicom.c:
fix apparently-broken code in do_ac_read()"). In the commit message,
the author commented that no one they knew was able to test the change.
Since then, there have been no commits that indicate the driver is
being used. Later PCI and PCI-Express Applicom Profibus cards only
officially support Windows [1], and even the PCI-Express cards have
been discontinued [2]. Given all these factors, remove the driver to
reduce future maintenance workload.

char: dtlk: remove driver for ISA speech synthesizer card

The dtlk driver supports the RC Systems DoubleTalk PC ISA speech
synthesizer card. It has severe coding style issues and has only
received tree-wide fixes and drive-by cleanups in the entire Git
history (since Linux 2.6.12-rc2). The same hardware is supported by
drivers/accessibility/speakup for screen reader use, but that
implementation does not share any code with this driver. Given all of
these factors, it is likely the driver is entirely unused. Remove it to
reduce future maintenance workload.

Note: The removed maintainer is already listed in CREDITS.

char/mwave: drop it

When I tried to clean up the driver a bit, Arnd noted:

> couple of Thinkpad models that are now over 25 years old, using
> Pentium II processors, and they all have a physical RS232 port

> Maybe we can just retire this driver?

So instead of the clean up, drop the driver altogether.
