This mostly consists of patches that didn't quite make the last cycle. Lots of interesting things under review currently. Core: - Add devm_iio_device_register/unregister. I took some convincing on whether there would be many devices that really were simple enough to need no explicit actions on removal. Turns out there are some. - Move some stray docs to above the relevant implemenation. - Drop a redundant repeated check on the fact the trigger has actually changed when there is a userspace attempt change it. Drivers: New drivers - Freescale MPL3115A2 Pressure / temperature sensor New functionality - hid_sensors: add sensitivity support. DT bindings - tsl2563 - hmc5843 Cleanups - Drop unused scan_type from viperboard adc driver. - devm_iio_device_register used in viperboard, ad5421, ad5755, adis16130, adxrs450, vcnl4000, adis16220, ad7816, lpc32xx, adt7316, adis16060, isl29018 and ad2s1200. Note that this was proposed in a number of other drivers and this revealed a number of missorderings in remove functions. Also for now I have blocked this on any device that any hardware suspend suport on the basis that we probably want to power down devices if they have no driver support loaded.

* lib: devres: Introduce devm_ioremap_resource()Thierry Reding2013-01-22
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The devm_request_and_ioremap() function is very useful and helps avoid a whole lot of boilerplate. However, one issue that keeps popping up is its lack of a specific error code to determine which of the steps that it performs failed. Furthermore, while the function gives an example and suggests what error code to return on failure, a wide variety of error codes are used throughout the tree. In an attempt to fix these problems, this patch adds a new function that drivers can transition to. The devm_ioremap_resource() returns a pointer to the remapped I/O memory on success or an ERR_PTR() encoded error code on failure. Callers can check for failure using IS_ERR() and determine its cause by extracting the error code using PTR_ERR(). devm_request_and_ioremap() is implemented as a wrapper around the new API and return NULL on failure as before. This ensures that backwards compatibility is maintained until all users have been converted to the new API, at which point the old devm_request_and_ioremap() function should be removed. A semantic patch is included which can be used to convert from the old devm_request_and_ioremap() API to the new devm_ioremap_resource() API. Some non-trivial cases may require manual intervention, though.
