Here is the big staging and iio driver update for 5.2-rc1.
Lots of tiny fixes all over the staging and IIO driver trees here, along
with some new IIO drivers.
Also we ended up deleting two drivers, making this pull request remove a
few hundred thousand lines of code, always a nice thing to see. Both of
the drivers removed have been replaced with "real" drivers in their
various subsystem directories, and they will be coming to you from those
locations during this merge window.
There are some core vt/selection changes in here, that was due to some
cleanups needed for the speakup fixes. Those have all been acked by the
various subsystem maintainers (i.e. me), so those are ok.
We also added a few new drivers, for some odd hardware, giving new
developers plenty to work on with basic coding style cleanups to come in
the near future.
Other than that, nothing unusual here.
All of these have been in linux-next for a while with no reported
issues, other than an odd gcc warning for one of the new drivers that
should be fixed up soon.

"Here is the big staging and iio driver update for 5.2-rc1.
Lots of tiny fixes all over the staging and IIO driver trees here,
along with some new IIO drivers.
The "counter" subsystem was added in here as well, as it is needed by
the IIO drivers and subsystem.
Also we ended up deleting two drivers, making this pull request remove
a few hundred thousand lines of code, always a nice thing to see. Both
of the drivers removed have been replaced with "real" drivers in their

The kernel offers a wide variety of interfaces to support the development
|
|
of device drivers. This document is an only somewhat organized collection
|
|
of some of those interfaces — it will hopefully get better over time! The
|
|
available subsections can be seen below.
