2013-03-12mfd: ab8500: Kill "reg" property from bindingArnd Bergmann
The ab8500 device is a child of the prcmu device, which is a memory mapped bus device, whose children are addressable using physical memory addresses, not using mailboxes, so a mailbox number in the ab8500 node cannot be parsed by DT. Nothing uses this number, since it was only introduced as part of the failed attempt to clean up prcmu mailbox handling, and we can simply remove it.

Need to consider sequence is: numaq, srat, amd, dummy. and make fall back path working. 2. simply split acpi_numa_init to early_parse_srat. a. that early_parse_srat is NOT called for ia64, so you break ia64. b. for (i = 0; i < MAX_LOCAL_APIC; i++) set_apicid_to_node(i, NUMA_NO_NODE) still left in numa_init. So it will just clear result from early_parse_srat. it should be moved before that.... c. it breaks ACPI_TABLE_OVERIDE...as the acpi table scan is moved early before override from INITRD is settled. 3. that patch TITLE is total misleading, there is NO x86 in the title, but it changes critical x86 code. It caused x86 guys did not pay attention to find the problem early. Those patches really should be routed via tip/x86/mm. 4. after that commit, following range can not use movable ram: a. real_mode code.... well..funny, legacy Node0 [0,1M) could be hot-removed? b. initrd... it will be freed after booting, so it could be on movable... c. crashkernel for kdump...: looks like we can not put kdump kernel above 4G anymore. d. init_mem_mapping: can not put page table high anymore. e. initmem_init: vmemmap can not be high local node anymore. That is not good. If node is hotplugable, the mem related range like page table and vmemmap could be on the that node without problem and should be on that node. We have workaround patch that could fix some problems, but some can not be fixed. So just remove that offending commit and related ones including: f7210e6c4ac7 ("mm/memblock.c: use CONFIG_HAVE_MEMBLOCK_NODE_MAP to protect movablecore_map in memblock_overlaps_region().") 01a178a94e8e ("acpi, memory-hotplug: support getting hotplug info from SRAT") 27168d38fa20 ("acpi, memory-hotplug: extend movablemem_map ranges to the end of node") e8d195525809 ("acpi, memory-hotplug: parse SRAT before memblock is ready") fb06bc8e5f42 ("page_alloc: bootmem limit with movablecore_map") 42f47e27e761 ("page_alloc: make movablemem_map have higher priority") 6981ec31146c ("page_alloc: introduce zone_movable_limit[] to keep movable limit for nodes") 34b71f1e04fc ("page_alloc: add movable_memmap kernel parameter") 4d59a75125d5 ("x86: get pg_data_t's memory from other node") Later we should have patches that will make sure kernel put page table and vmemmap on local node ram instead of push them down to node0. Also need to find way to put other kernel used ram to local node ram.

Notable changes are: - More devices get moved out of board files into device tree descriptions. The remaining devices listed in there have patches that will get sent for 3.10, after which we can remove a lot of the board files entirely. We are doing the pinctrl and mmc drivers here, ethernet and PCI still remain. - SMP support for mvebu is improved with support for the local interrupt controller. - The Guruplug board file gets replaced with a DT description. Unfortunately, the dependency on the MMC tree turned out to be a much larger problem than expected, when the MMC maintainer rebased the patches in his tree that all of the patches in this branch are based on, which caused merge conflicts between the new and old versions of those patches. To work around the merge conflicts, this branch rebases all patches on top of the respective MMC patches that did get merged into 3.9.

2013-02-28dmaengine: dw_dmac: move to generic DMA bindingArnd Bergmann
The original device tree binding for this driver, from Viresh Kumar unfortunately conflicted with the generic DMA binding, and did not allow to completely seperate slave device configuration from the controller. This is an attempt to replace it with an implementation of the generic binding, but it is currently completely untested, because I do not have any hardware with this particular controller. The patch applies on top of the slave-dma tree, which contains both the base support for the generic DMA binding, as well as the earlier attempt from Viresh. Both of these are currently not merged upstream however. This version incorporates feedback from Viresh Kumar, Andy Shevchenko and Russell King.
