For the third time in three years, I'm changing my e-mail at Samsung.
That's bad, as it may stop communications with me for a while. So, this
time, I'll also add the mchehab@kernel.org e-mail, as it remains stable
since ever.

Alan is no longer maintaining this list through the Linux assigned
numbers authority. Make it a collective document by referring to
"the maintainers" in plural throughout, and naming the chardev and
block layer maintainers in particular as parties of involvement.
Cut down and remove some sections that pertained to the process of
maintaining the list at lanana.org and contacting Alan directly.
Make it clear that this document, in the kernel, is the master
document.
Also move paragraphs around so as to emphasize dynamic major number
allocation.
Remove paragraph on 2.6 deprecation, that tag no longer appears
anywhere in the file.

* mcp4725
- mcp4726 DAC added.
* mma8452
- mma8451q accelerometer added.
* mpl115
- mpl115a1 added (a lot bigger than it seems as this is an SPI part whereas
previous parts were i2c).
* si7005
- Hoperf th02 (seems to be a repackaged part)
* si7020
- Hoperf th06 (seems to be a repackaged part)
New features
* Core
- IIO_PH type. Does what it says on the tin.

Cleanups and minor / not so minor reworks
* Documentation
- drop some defunct ABI from the docs in staging.
* presure / Kconfig
- white space cleanup.
* ad7150
- BIT macro usage
- Alignment fixes
* ad7192
- false indent fixed.
* ak8975
- constify the ak_def structures
* axp288
- drop a redundant double const.
* dht11
- substantial reliability improvements by being more tolerant
of missing start bits.
- simplify the decoding algorithm
* mma8452
- whitespace cleanup
* mpl115
- don't bother setting i2c_client_data as nothing uses it.
* mpu6050
- drop unused function parameter.
* opt3001
- extract integration time as constants.
- trivial refactoring.
ad5761 is a 1-channel DAC with configurable output range.
The driver uses the regulator interface for its voltage ref.
It shares its register layout with ad5761r, ad5721 and ad5721r.
Differences:
ad5761* are 16 bit, ad5721* are 12 bits.
ad57*1r have an internal reference.

Pull pin control updates from Linus Walleij:
"This is the bulk of pin control changes for the v4.3 development
cycle.
Like with GPIO it's a lot of stuff. If my subsystems are any sign of
the overall tempo of the kernel v4.3 will be a gigantic diff.
[ It looks like 4.3 is calmer than 4.2 in most other subsystems, but
we'll see - Linus ]
Core changes:
- It is possible configure groups in debugfs.
- Consolidation of chained IRQ handler install/remove replacing all
call sites where irq_set_handler_data() and
irq_set_chained_handler() were done in succession with a combined
call to irq_set_chained_handler_and_data(). This series was
created by Thomas Gleixner after the problem was observed by
Russell King.
- Tglx also made another series of patches switching
__irq_set_handler_locked() for irq_set_handler_locked() which is
way cleaner.
- Tglx also wrote a good bunch of patches to make use of
irq_desc_get_xxx() accessors and avoid looking up irq_descs from
IRQ numbers. The goal is to get rid of the irq number from the
handlers in the IRQ flow which is nice.
Driver feature enhancements:
- Power management support for the SiRF SoC Atlas 7.
- Power down support for the Qualcomm driver.
- Intel Cherryview and Baytrail: switch drivers to use raw spinlocks
in IRQ handlers to play nice with the realtime patch set.
- Rework and new modes handling for Qualcomm SPMI-MPP.
- Pinconf power source config for SH PFC.
New drivers and subdrivers:
- A new driver for Conexant Digicolor CX92755.
- A new driver for UniPhier PH1-LD4, PH1-Pro4, PH1-sLD8, PH1-Pro5,
ProXtream2 and PH1-LD6b SoC pin control support.
- Reverse-egineered the S/PDIF settings for the Allwinner sun4i
driver.
- Support for Qualcomm Technologies QDF2xxx ARM64 SoCs
- A new Freescale i.mx6ul subdriver.
Cleanup:
- Remove platform data support in a number of SH PFC subdrivers"

Adds a new single-purpose PIDs subsystem to limit the number of
tasks that can be forked inside a cgroup. Essentially this is an
implementation of RLIMIT_NPROC that applies to a cgroup rather than a
process tree.
However, it should be noted that organisational operations (adding and
removing tasks from a PIDs hierarchy) will *not* be prevented. Rather,
the number of tasks in the hierarchy cannot exceed the limit through
forking. This is due to the fact that, in the unified hierarchy, attach
cannot fail (and it is not possible for a task to overcome its PIDs
cgroup policy limit by attaching to a child cgroup -- even if migrating
mid-fork it must be able to fork in the parent first).
PIDs are fundamentally a global resource, and it is possible to reach
PID exhaustion inside a cgroup without hitting any reasonable kmemcg
policy. Once you've hit PID exhaustion, you're only in a marginally
better state than OOM. This subsystem allows PID exhaustion inside a
cgroup to be prevented.
