Pull pwm updates from Thierry Reding:
"This round contains a couple of new drivers for the Marvell Berlin
family of SoCs, various SoCs from Renesas and Broadcom as well as the
backlight PWM present on MediaTek SoCs.
Further existing drivers are extended to support a wider range of
hardware.
The remaining patches are minor fixes and cleanups across the board.
Note that one of the patches included in this pull request is against
arch/unicore32. I've included it here because I couldn't get a
response from Guan Xuetao and I consider the change low-risk.
Equivalent patches have been merged and tested in Samsung and PXA
trees. The goal is to finally get rid of legacy code paths that have
repeatedly been causing headaches"

If a block device is hot removed and later last reference to device
is put, we try to writeback the dirty inode. But device is gone and
that writeback fails.
Currently we do a WARN_ON() which does not seem to be the right thing.
Convert it to a ratelimited kernel warning.

Some controllers may require ordered split transfers even on 64bit
machines, e.g. Apple's NVMe controller as found in the MacBook8,1 and
MacBookAir7,1 (256/512GB models).
This patch enforces ordered split transfers on 64bit platforms, which
works around that issue for all controllers. As pointed out by Christoph
[1] there should be no performance impact due to that modification.

The big warning comment that is currently at the end of struct
inode_operations was added as part of this commit:
4aa7c6346b ("vfs: add i_op->dentry_open()")
It was added to warn people not to use the newly added 'dentry_open'
function pointer.
This function pointer was removed as part of this commit:
4bacc9c923 ("overlayfs: Make f_path always point to the overlay and
f_inode to the underlay")
The comment was left behind and now refers to nothing, so remove it.

The function currently called "__block_page_mkwrite()" used to be called
"block_page_mkwrite()" until a wrapper for this function was added by:
commit 24da4fab5a ("vfs: Create __block_page_mkwrite() helper passing
error values back")
This wrapper, the current "block_page_mkwrite()", is currently unused.
__block_page_mkwrite() is used directly by ext4, nilfs2 and xfs.
Remove the unused wrapper, rename __block_page_mkwrite() back to
block_page_mkwrite() and update the comment above block_page_mkwrite().
