This is the bulk of the GPIO changes for the v4.14 cycle: Core changes - Allow the GPIO irqchip to allocate IRQs dynamically. This is an important change on systems where only a restricted number of IRQs, lesser than the number of GPIO lines, can be utilized. Now we can allocate these on a first-come-first-served basis instead of hogging up valuable IRQ lines. - Serious fix-up of the kerneldoc documentation and inclusion into the kerneldoc builds. - Pulled in the IRQ simulator from the IRQ core tree and use this in the GPIO mockup driver for exhaustive testing of interrupt abilities. New drivers - New driver for ThunderX and OCTEON-TX. This is especially interesting as it picks up improvements from the IRQ core that allow us to handle fasteoi ACKs upwards in a hierarchy when there are IRQ flag latches on several levels in a hierarchy. Very interesting work here. - New subdriver for Renesas R-Car r8a7745 (RZ/G1E). Misc - Several fixes and improvements for Xilinx Zynq GPIO. - Support an enablement GPIO for the 74x164 GPIO. - Switch a bunch of chips to use devres to allocate irq descriptors. - A bunch of constification fixes.
