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.

class_find_device already does a get_device on the returned device.
So the device returned by of_find_mux_chip_by_node is already referenced
and we should not reference it again (and unref it on error).

Make this const as it is only stored in the type field of a device
structure, which is const.
