Pull NTB updates from Jon Mason:
"This includes a pretty significant reworking of the NTB core code, but
has already produced some significant performance improvements.
An abstraction layer was added to allow the hardware and clients to be
easily added. This required rewriting the NTB transport layer for
this abstraction layer. This modification will allow future "high
performance" NTB clients.
In addition to this change, a number of performance modifications were
added. These changes include NUMA enablement, using CPU memcpy
instead of asyncdma, and modification of NTB layer MTU size"

Pull fuse updates from Miklos Szeredi:
"This is the start of improving fuse scalability.
An input queue and a processing queue is split out from the monolithic
fuse connection, each of those having their own spinlock. The end of
the patchset adds the ability to clone a fuse connection. This means,
that instead of having to read/write requests/answers on a single fuse
device fd, the fuse daemon can have multiple distinct file descriptors
open. Each of those can be used to receive requests and send answers,
currently the only constraint is that a request must be answered on
the same fd as it was read from.
This can be extended further to allow binding a device clone to a
specific CPU or NUMA node.
Based on a patchset by Srinivas Eeda and Ashish Samant. Thanks to
Ashish for the review of this series"

- support for HS38 cores based on ARCv2 ISA
ARCv2 is the next generation ISA from Synopsys and basis for the
HS3{4,6,8} families of processors which retain the traditional ARC mantra of
low power and configurability and are now more performant and feature rich.
HS38x is a 10 stage pipeline core which supports MMU (with huge pages) and
SMP (upto 4 cores) among other features.

Pull libnvdimm subsystem from Dan Williams:
"The libnvdimm sub-system introduces, in addition to the
libnvdimm-core, 4 drivers / enabling modules:
NFIT:
Instantiates an "nvdimm bus" with the core and registers memory
devices (NVDIMMs) enumerated by the ACPI 6.0 NFIT (NVDIMM Firmware
Interface table).
After registering NVDIMMs the NFIT driver then registers "region"
devices. A libnvdimm-region defines an access mode and the
boundaries of persistent memory media. A region may span multiple
NVDIMMs that are interleaved by the hardware memory controller. In
turn, a libnvdimm-region can be carved into a "namespace" device and
bound to the PMEM or BLK driver which will attach a Linux block
device (disk) interface to the memory.
PMEM:
Initially merged in v4.1 this driver for contiguous spans of
persistent memory address ranges is re-worked to drive
PMEM-namespaces emitted by the libnvdimm-core.
In this update the PMEM driver, on x86, gains the ability to assert
that writes to persistent memory have been flushed all the way
through the caches and buffers in the platform to persistent media.
See memcpy_to_pmem() and wmb_pmem().
BLK:
This new driver enables access to persistent memory media through
"Block Data Windows" as defined by the NFIT. The primary difference
of this driver to PMEM is that only a small window of persistent
memory is mapped into system address space at any given point in
time.
Per-NVDIMM windows are reprogrammed at run time, per-I/O, to access
different portions of the media. BLK-mode, by definition, does not
support DAX.
BTT:
This is a library, optionally consumed by either PMEM or BLK, that
converts a byte-accessible namespace into a disk with atomic sector
update semantics (prevents sector tearing on crash or power loss).
The sinister aspect of sector tearing is that most applications do
not know they have a atomic sector dependency. At least today's
disk's rarely ever tear sectors and if they do one almost certainly
gets a CRC error on access. NVDIMMs will always tear and always
silently. Until an application is audited to be robust in the
presence of sector-tearing the usage of BTT is recommended.
