Discussion at Kernel Summit made it clear that the presence or absence of
specific Kconfig symbols are not considered ABI, and that no userspace (or
bootloader, etc) should rely on them.
In addition, kernel-internal symbols are well established as non-ABI, per
Documentation/stable_api_nonsense.txt.
Document both of these in Documentation/ABI/README, in a new section for
notable bits of non-ABI.

The analog sticks of the pro-controller might report slightly off values.
To guarantee a uniform setup, we now calibrate analog-stick values during
pro-controller setup.
Unfortunately, the pro-controller fails during normal EEPROM reads and I
couldn't figure out whether there are any calibration values stored on the
device. Therefore, we now use the first values reported by the device (iff
they are not _way_ off, which would indicate movement) to initialize the
calibration values. To allow users to change this calibration data, we
provide a pro_calib sysfs attribute.
We also change the "flat" values so user-space correctly smoothes our
data. It makes slightly off zero-positions less visible while still
guaranteeing highly precise movement reports. Note that the pro controller
reports zero-positions in a quite huge range (at least: -100 to +100).

This patch enables support for OSPM suspend and resume in the MIC
driver. During a host suspend event, the driver performs an
orderly shutdown of the cards if they are online. Upon resume, any
cards that were previously online before suspend are rebooted.
The driver performs an orderly shutdown of the card primarily to
ensure that applications in the card are terminated and mounted
devices are safely un-mounted before the card is powered down in
the event of an OSPM suspend.
The driver makes use of the MIC daemon to accomplish OSPM suspend
and resume. The driver registers a PM notifier per MIC device.
The devices get notified synchronously during PM_SUSPEND_PREPARE and
PM_POST_SUSPEND phases.
During the PM_SUSPEND_PREPARE phase, the driver performs one of the
following three tasks.
1) If the card is 'offline', the driver sets the card to a
'suspended' state and returns.
2) If the card is 'online', the driver initiates card shutdown by
setting the card state to suspending. This notifies the MIC
daemon which invokes shutdown and sets card state to 'suspended'.
The driver returns after the shutdown is complete.
3) If the card is already being shutdown, possibly by a host user
space application, the driver sets the card state to 'suspended'
and returns after the shutdown is complete.
During the PM_POST_SUSPEND phase, the driver simply notifies the
daemon and returns. The daemon boots those cards that were previously
online during the suspend phase.

Allwinner has electric fuses (efuse) on their line of chips. This driver
reads those fuses, seeds the kernel entropy and exports them as a sysfs
node.
These fuses are most likely to be programmed at the factory, encoding
things like Chip ID, some sort of serial number, etc. and appear to be
reasonably unique.
While in theory, these should be writeable by the user, it will probably
be inconvenient to do so. Allwinner recommends that a certain input pin,
labeled 'efuse_vddq', be connected to GND. To write these fuses however,
a 2.5 V programming voltage needs to be applied to this pin.
Even so, they can still be used to generate a board-unique mac from,
board unique RSA key and seed the kernel RNG.
On sun7i additional storage is available, this is initially used for an
UEFI BOOT key, Secure JTAG key, HDMI-HDCP key and vendor specific keys.
Currently supported are the following known chips:
Allwinner sun4i (A10)
Allwinner sun5i (A10s, A13)
Allwinner sun7i (A20)

Integration time is in seconds; it controls the measurement
time and influences the gain of a sensor.
There are two typical ways that scaling is implemented in a device:
1) input amplifier,
2) reference to the ADC is changed.
These both result in the accuracy of the ADC varying (by applying its
sampling over a more relevant range).
Integration time is a way of dealing with noise inherent in the analog
sensor itself. In the case of a light sensor, a mixture of photon noise
and device specific noise. Photon noise is dealt with by either improving
the efficiency of the sensor, (more photons actually captured) which is not
easily varied dynamically, or by integrating the measurement over a longer
time period. Note that this can also be thought of as an averaging of a
number of individual samples and is infact sometimes implemented this way.
Altering integration time implies that the duration of a measurement changes,
a fact the device's user may be interested in.
Hence it makes sense to distinguish between integration time and simple
scale. In some devices both types of control are present and whilst they
will have similar effects on the amplitude of the reading, their effect
on the noise of the measurements will differ considerably.
Used by adjd_s311, tsl4531, tcs3472
The following drivers have similar controls (and could be adapted):
* tsl2563 (integration time is controlled via CALIBSCALE among other things)
* tsl2583 (has integration_time device_attr, but driver doesn't use channels yet)
* tsl2x7x (has integration_time attr)

Intel Rapid Start Technology is a firmware-based suspend-to-disk
implementation. Once placed in S3, the device will wake once either a
timeout elapses or the battery reaches a critical level. It will then resume
to the firmware and copy the contents of RAM to a specialised partition, and
then power off the machine. If the user turns the machine back on the
firmware will copy the contents of the partition back to RAM and then resume
from S3 as normal.
This driver provides an interface for configuring the wakeup events and
timeout. It still requires firmware support and an appropriate suspend
partition.

In the Power7 PMU guide:
https://www.power.org/documentation/commonly-used-metrics-for-performance-analysis/
PM_BRU_MPRED is referred to as PM_BR_MPRED.
It fixed the typo by changing the name of the event in kernel and
documentation accordingly.
This patch changes the ABI, there are some reasons I think it's ok:
- It is relatively new interface, specific to the Power7 platform.
- No tools that we know of actually use this interface at this point
(none are listed near the interface).
- Users of this interface (eg oprofile users migrating to perf)
would be more used to the "PM_BR_MPRED" rather than "PM_BRU_MPRED".
- These are in the ABI/testing at this point rather than ABI/stable,
so hoping we have some wiggle room.
