Merge branch 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/egtvedt/linux-avr32

Pull AVR32 removal from Hans-Christian Noren Egtvedt:
 "This will remove support for AVR32 architecture from the kernel and
  clean away the most obvious architecture related parts. Removing dead
  code in drivers is the next step"

Notes from previous discussion about this:
 "The AVR32 architecture is not keeping up with the development of the
  kernel, and since it shares so much of the drivers with Atmel ARM SoC,
  it is starting to hinder these drivers to develop swiftly.

  Also, all AVR32 AP7 SoC processors are end of lifed from Atmel (now
  Microchip).

  Finally, the GCC toolchain is stuck at version 4.2.x, and has not
  received any patches since the last release from Atmel;
  4.2.4-atmel.1.1.3.avr32linux.1.

  When building kernel v4.10, this toolchain is no longer able to
  properly link the network stack.

  Haavard and I have came to the conclusion that we feel keeping AVR32
  on life support offers more obstacles for Atmel ARMs, than it gives
  joy to AVR32 users. I also suspect there are very few AVR32 users left
  today, if anybody at all"

That discussion was acked by Andy Shevchenko, Boris Brezillon, Nicolas
Ferre, and Haavard Skinnemoen.
