Pull staging tree changes from Greg Kroah-Hartman:
"Here is the big staging tree pull request for the 3.5-rc1 merge
window.
Loads of changes here, and we just narrowly added more lines than we
added:
622 files changed, 28356 insertions(+), 26059 deletions(-)
But, good news is that there is a number of subsystems that moved out
of the staging tree, to their respective "real" portions of the
kernel.
Code that moved out was:
- iio core code
- mei driver
- vme core and bridge drivers
There was one broken network driver that moved into staging as a step
before it is removed from the tree (pc300), and there was a few new
drivers added to the tree:
- new iio drivers
- gdm72xx wimax USB driver
- ipack subsystem and 2 drivers
All of the movements around have acks from the various subsystem
maintainers, and all of this has been in the linux-next tree for a
while.

Fixed up various trivial conflicts, along with a non-trivial one found
in -next and pointed out by Olof Johanssen: a clean - but incorrect -
merge of the arch/arm/boot/dts/at91sam9g20.dtsi file. Fix up manually
as per Stephen Rothwell.

The Configurable Gadget driver is a composite driver that allows
userspace to change at runtime the list of functions enabled in
its configuration and to configure these functions. It supports
multiple functions: acm, rndis, and mass storage.
It is usually controlled by a daemon that changes the configuration
based on user settings. For example, rndis is enabled when the user
enables sharing the phone data connection.
As an example on how to use it, the following shell commands will
make the gadget disconnect from the host and make it be re-enumerated
as a composite with 1 rndis and 2 acm interfaces, and a different
product id:
echo 0 > /sys/class/ccg_usb/ccg0/enable
echo rndis,acm > /sys/class/ccg_usb/ccg0/functions
echo 2 > /sys/class/ccg_usb/ccg0/f_acm/instances
echo -n 0x2d01 > /sys/module/g_ccg/parameters/idProduct
echo 1 > /sys/class/ccg_usb/ccg0/enable
The driver requires a gadget controller that supports software
control of the D+ pullup and the controller driver must support
disabling the pullup during composite_bind.

This moves the VME core, VME board drivers, and VME bridge drivers out
of the drivers/staging/vme/ area to drivers/vme/.
The VME device drivers have not moved out yet due to some API questions
they are still working through, that should happen soon, hopefully.

It was marked as BROKEN back in 2008. It is because the tty handling
in the driver is really broken.
There was some activity in January 2012 to fix the driver, but the
patch was commented to be bogus:
https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/1/29/160
and we have not heard back from the author since then:
https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/3/28/412
So since nobody stepped in and rewrote the driver, it is time to move
it out of line now. And drop it some time later if nobody comes up
with patches to fix the driver in staging.

commit 3a0db7215c
"TTY: serial, move 68360 driver to staging"
did so because the driver had remained broken since 2008. It also
added this text to the TODO file:
"If no one steps up to adopt any of these drivers, they will
be removed in the 3.4 release."
A quick search on the internet doesn't reveal anyone actively
trying to update/fix this driver, so follow through on the above
and remove it from the pending 3.4 release.

Pull nouveau destaging + Kelper modesetting support from Dave Airlie:
"This pull request is unexpected and not something I had mentioned
previously.
So NVIDIA announced new Kepler GPUs this morning, and Ben has killed
himself getting modesetting support for them together to have on
launch day. Most of the code to support the new chips has already
gone in, however this pull contains a few more pieces along with the
final enables so the driver binds to the new Kepler cards. Its quite
amazing that nouveau can support a GPU on its launch day even if its
just unaccelerated modesetting, and I'd like to have support in the
next kernel.
In order to sweeten the deal, Ben has also requested nouveau destage
and become ABI stable, the only change is the version number bump
which he prepared userspace for quite a long time ago. The driver
hasn't broken ABI since that one big break that caused a lot of fuss.
It's also quite a small set of code, and not likely to break anything."

The storage driver (storvsc_drv.c) handles all block storage devices
assigned to Linux guests hosted on Hyper-V. This driver has been in the
staging tree for a while and this patch moves it out of the staging area.
James was willing to apply this patch during the 3.3-rc phase and a decision
was taken to defer this to 3.4 since Greg had queued up a bunch of storvsc
patches for 3.4. Now that Greg has applied all of the pending storvsc patches,
I am sending this patch to move this driver out of staging. Based on James'
recommendation, this patch gets rid of the unneeded files in the staging/hv
directory.
