Linus Torvalds 235c7b9feb Merge branch 'next' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/benh/powerpc
Pull main powerpc updates from Ben Herrenschmidt:
 "This time around, the powerpc merges are going to be a little bit more
  complicated than usual.

  This is the main pull request with most of the work for this merge
  window.  I will describe it a bit more further down.

  There is some additional cpuidle driver work, however I haven't
  included it in this tree as it depends on some work in tip/timer-core
  which Thomas accidentally forgot to put in a topic branch.  Since I
  didn't want to carry all of that tip timer stuff in powerpc -next, I
  setup a separate branch on top of Thomas tree with just that cpuidle
  driver in it, and Stephen has been carrying that in next separately
  for a while now.  I'll send a separate pull request for it.

  Additionally, two new pieces in this tree add users for a sysfs API
  that Tejun and Greg have been deprecating in drivers-core-next.
  Thankfully Greg reverted the patch that removes the old API so this
  merge can happen cleanly, but once merged, I will send a patch
  adjusting our new code to the new API so that Greg can send you the
  removal patch.

  Now as for the content of this branch, we have a lot of perf work for
  power8 new counters including support for our new "nest" counters
  (also called 24x7) under pHyp (not natively yet).

  We have new functionality when running under the OPAL firmware
  (non-virtualized or KVM host), such as access to the firmware error
  logs and service processor dumps, system parameters and sensors, along
  with a hwmon driver for the latter.

  There's also a bunch of bug fixes accross the board, some LE fixes,
  and a nice set of selftests for validating our various types of copy
  loops.

  On the Freescale side, we see mostly new chip/board revisions, some
  clock updates, better support for machine checks and debug exceptions,
  etc..."
