Pull more block fixes from Jens Axboe:
"As mentioned in the pull the other day, a few more fixes for this
round, all related to the bio op changes in this series.
Two fixes, and then a cleanup, renaming bio->bi_rw to bio->bi_opf. I
wanted to do that change right after or right before -rc1, so that
risk of conflict was reduced. I just rebased the series on top of
current master, and no new ->bi_rw usage has snuck in"

Pull drm zpos property support from Dave Airlie:
"This tree was waiting on some media stuff I hadn't had time to get a
stable branchpoint off, so I just waited until it was all in your tree
first.
It's been around a bit on the list and shouldn't affect anything
outside adding the generic API and moving some ARM drivers to using
it"
* tag 'drm-for-v4.8-zpos' of git://people.freedesktop.org/~airlied/linux:
drm: rcar: use generic code for managing zpos plane property
drm/exynos: use generic code for managing zpos plane property
drm: sti: use generic zpos for plane
drm: add generic zpos property
Since commit 63a4cc2486, bio->bi_rw contains flags in the lower
portion and the op code in the higher portions. This means that
old code that relies on manually setting bi_rw is most likely
going to be broken. Instead of letting that brokeness linger,
rename the member, to force old and out-of-tree code to break
at compile time instead of at runtime.
No intended functional changes in this commit.

Pull binfmt_misc update from James Bottomley:
"This update is to allow architecture emulation containers to function
such that the emulation binary can be housed outside the container
itself. The container and fs parts both have acks from relevant
experts.
To use the new feature you have to add an F option to your binfmt_misc
configuration"
From the docs:
"The usual behaviour of binfmt_misc is to spawn the binary lazily when
the misc format file is invoked. However, this doesn't work very well
in the face of mount namespaces and changeroots, so the F mode opens
the binary as soon as the emulation is installed and uses the opened
image to spawn the emulator, meaning it is always available once
installed, regardless of how the environment changes"

Instead of a ramoops-specific node, use a child node of /reserved-memory.
This requires that of_platform_device_create() be explicitly called
for the node, though, since "/reserved-memory" does not have its own
"compatible" property.

The dma-mapping core and the implementations do not change the DMA
attributes passed by pointer. Thus the pointer can point to const data.
However the attributes do not have to be a bitfield. Instead unsigned
long will do fine:
1. This is just simpler. Both in terms of reading the code and setting
attributes. Instead of initializing local attributes on the stack
and passing pointer to it to dma_set_attr(), just set the bits.
2. It brings safeness and checking for const correctness because the
attributes are passed by value.

KVM/ARM Changes for v4.8 - Take 2
Includes GSI routing support to go along with the new VGIC and a small fix that
has been cooking in -next for a while.
Blacklisting a module in linux has long been a problem. The current
procedure is to use rd.blacklist=module_name, however, that doesn't
cover the case after the initramfs and before a boot prompt (where one
is supposed to use /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf to blacklist
runtime loading). Using rd.shell to get an early prompt is hit-or-miss,
and doesn't cover all situations AFAICT.
This patch adds this functionality of permanently blacklisting a module
by its name via the kernel parameter module_blacklist=module_name.
[v2]: Rusty, use core_param() instead of __setup() which simplifies
things.
[v3]: Rusty, undo wreckage from strsep()
[v4]: Rusty, simpler version of blacklisted()
