Merge tag 'char-misc-4.16-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/char-misc
Pull char/misc driver updates from Greg KH: "Here is the big pull request for char/misc drivers for 4.16-rc1. There's a lot of stuff in here. Three new driver subsystems were added for various types of hardware busses: - siox - slimbus - soundwire as well as a new vboxguest subsystem for the VirtualBox hypervisor drivers. There's also big updates from the FPGA subsystem, lots of Android binder fixes, the usual handful of hyper-v updates, and lots of other smaller driver updates. All of these have been in linux-next for a long time, with no reported issues" * tag 'char-misc-4.16-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/char-misc: (155 commits) char: lp: use true or false for boolean values android: binder: use VM_ALLOC to get vm area android: binder: Use true and false for boolean values lkdtm: fix handle_irq_event symbol for INT_HW_IRQ_EN EISA: Delete error message for a failed memory allocation in eisa_probe() EISA: Whitespace cleanup misc: remove AVR32 dependencies virt: vbox: Add error mapping for VERR_INVALID_NAME and VERR_NO_MORE_FILES soundwire: Fix a signedness bug uio_hv_generic: fix new type mismatch warnings uio_hv_generic: fix type mismatch warnings auxdisplay: img-ascii-lcd: add missing MODULE_DESCRIPTION/AUTHOR/LICENSE uio_hv_generic: add rescind support uio_hv_generic: check that host supports monitor page uio_hv_generic: create send and receive buffers uio: document uio_hv_generic regions doc: fix documentation about uio_hv_generic vmbus: add monitor_id and subchannel_id to sysfs per channel vmbus: fix ABI documentation uio_hv_generic: use ISR callback method ...
