Here's the set of driver core patches for 3.19-rc1.
They are dominated by the removal of the .owner field in platform
drivers. They touch a lot of files, but they are "simple" changes, just
removing a line in a structure.
Other than that, a few minor driver core and debugfs changes. There are
some ath9k patches coming in through this tree that have been acked by
the wireless maintainers as they relied on the debugfs changes.
Everything has been in linux-next for a while.

2) Allow seeks on /dev/mdesc, from Khalid Aziz.
3) Cleanup sparc64 I/O accessors, from Sam Ravnborg.
4) If update_mmu_cache{,_pmd}() is called with an not-valid mapping, do
not insert it into the TLB miss hash tables otherwise we'll
livelock. Based upon work by Christopher Alexander Tobias Schulze.
5) Fix BREAK detection in sunsab driver when no actual characters are
pending, from Christopher Alexander Tobias Schulze.
6) Because we have modules --> openfirmware --> vmalloc ordering of
virtual memory, the lazy VMAP TLB flusher can cons up an invocation
of flush_tlb_kernel_range() that covers the openfirmware address
range. Unfortunately this will flush out the firmware's locked TLB
mapping which causes all kinds of trouble. Just split up the flush
request if this happens, but in the long term the lazy VMAP flusher
should probably be made a little bit smarter.

Fix detection of BREAK on sunsab serial console: BREAK detection was only
performed when there were also serial characters received simultaneously.
To handle all BREAKs correctly, the check for BREAK and the corresponding
call to uart_handle_break() must also be done if count == 0, therefore
duplicate this code fragment and pull it out of the loop over the received
characters.
Patch applies to 3.16-rc6.

Commit 717f3bbab3,
'serial_core: Fix conditional start_tx on ring buffer not empty'
exposes an incorrect assumption in several drivers' start_tx methods;
the tx ring buffer can, in fact, be empty when restarting tx while
performing flow control.
Affected drivers:
sunsab.c
ip22zilog.c
pmac_zilog.c
sunzilog.c
m32r_sio.c
imx.c
Other in-tree serial drivers either are not affected or already
test for empty tx ring buffer before transmitting.
Test for empty tx ring buffer in start_tx() method, after transmitting
x_char (if applicable).

If IGNBRK is set without either BRKINT or PARMRK set, some uart
drivers send a 0x00 byte for BREAK without the TTYBREAK flag to the
line discipline, when it should send either nothing or the TTYBREAK flag
set. This happens because the read_status_mask masks out the BI
condition, which uart_insert_char() then interprets as a normal 0x00 byte.
SUS v3 is clear regarding the meaning of IGNBRK; Section 11.2.2, General
Terminal Interface - Input Modes, states:
"If IGNBRK is set, a break condition detected on input shall be ignored;
that is, not put on the input queue and therefore not read by any
process."
Fix read_status_mask to include the BI bit if IGNBRK is set; the
lsr status retains the BI bit if a BREAK is recv'd, which is
subsequently ignored in uart_insert_char() when masked with the
ignore_status_mask.

Use the wrapper functions for getting and setting the driver data using
platform_device instead of using dev_{get,set}_drvdata() with &pdev->dev,
so we can directly pass a struct platform_device.
Also, unnecessary dev_set_drvdata() is removed, because the driver core
clears the driver data to NULL after device_release or on probe failure.

* 227434f898 (TTY: switch
tty_buffer_request_room to tty_port)
introduced a potential NULL dereference to some drivers. In
particular, when the device is used as a console, incoming bytes can
kill the box. This is caused by removed checks for TTY against NULL.
It happened because it was unclear to me why the checks were there. I
assumed them superfluous because the interrupts were unbound or
otherwise stopped. But this is not the case for consoles for these
drivers, as was pointed out by David Miller.
Now, this patch re-introduces the checks (at this point we check
port->state, not the tty proper, as we do not care about tty pointers
anymore). For both of the drivers, we place the check below the
handling of break signal so that sysrq can actually work. (One needs
to issue a break and then sysrq key within the following 5 seconds.)
We do not change sc26xx, sunhv, and sunsu here because they behave the
same as before. People having that hardware should fix the driver
eventually, however. They always could unconditionally dereference tty
in receive_chars, port->state in uart_handle_dcd_change, and
up->port.state->port.tty.
There is perhaps more to fix in all those drivers, but they are at
least in a state they were before.

Now, we start converting tty buffer functions to actually use
tty_port. This will allow us to get rid of the need of tty in many
call sites. Only tty_port will needed and hence no more
tty_port_tty_get in those paths.
Now, the one where most of tty_port_tty_get gets removed:
tty_flip_buffer_push.
IOW we also closed all the races in drivers not using tty_port_tty_get
at all yet.
Also we move tty_flip_buffer_push declaration from include/linux/tty.h
to include/linux/tty_flip.h to all others while we are changing it
anyway.

tty_insert_flip_char is the next one to proceed. This one is used all
