Pull device mapper updates from Mike Snitzer:

 - Add DM verity support for signature verification with 2nd keyring

 - Fix DM verity to skip verity work if IO completes with error while
   system is shutting down

 - Add new DM multipath "IO affinity" path selector that maps IO
   destined to a given path to a specific CPU based on user provided
   mapping

 - Rename DM multipath path selector source files to have "dm-ps" prefix

 - Add REQ_NOWAIT support to some other simple DM targets that don't
   block in more elaborate ways waiting for IO

 - Export DM crypt's kcryptd workqueue via sysfs (WQ_SYSFS)

 - Fix error return code in DM's target_message() if empty message is
   received

 - A handful of other small cleanups

* tag 'for-5.11/dm-changes' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/device-mapper/linux-dm:
  dm cache: simplify the return expression of load_mapping()
  dm ebs: avoid double unlikely() notation when using IS_ERR()
  dm verity: skip verity work if I/O error when system is shutting down
  dm crypt: export sysfs of kcryptd workqueue
  dm ioctl: fix error return code in target_message
  dm crypt: Constify static crypt_iv_operations
  dm: add support for REQ_NOWAIT to various targets
  dm: rename multipath path selector source files to have "dm-ps" prefix
  dm mpath: add IO affinity path selector

Pull ARM SoC driver updates from Arnd Bergmann:
 "There are a couple of subsystems maintained by other people that merge
  their drivers through the SoC tree, those changes include:

   - The SCMI firmware framework gains support for sensor notifications
     and for controlling voltage domains.

   - A large update for the Tegra memory controller driver, integrating
     it better with the interconnect framework

   - The memory controller subsystem gains support for Mediatek MT8192

   - The reset controller framework gains support for sharing pulsed
     resets

  For Soc specific drivers in drivers/soc, the main changes are

   - The Allwinner/sunxi MBUS gets a rework for the way it handles
     dma_map_ops and offsets between physical and dma address spaces.

   - An errata fix plus some cleanups for Freescale Layerscape SoCs

   - A cleanup for renesas drivers regarding MMIO accesses.

   - New SoC specific drivers for Mediatek MT8192 and MT8183 power
     domains

   - New SoC specific drivers for Aspeed AST2600 LPC bus control and SoC
     identification.

   - Core Power Domain support for Qualcomm MSM8916, MSM8939, SDM660 and
     SDX55.

   - A rework of the TI AM33xx 'genpd' power domain support to use
     information from DT instead of platform data

   - Support for TI AM64x SoCs

   - Allow building some Amlogic drivers as modules instead of built-in

  Finally, there are numerous cleanups and smaller bug fixes for
  Mediatek, Tegra, Samsung, Qualcomm, TI OMAP, Amlogic, Rockchips,
  Renesas, and Xilinx SoCs"

Pull ARM SoC driver updates from Arnd Bergmann:
 "There are a couple of subsystems maintained by other people that merge
  their drivers through the SoC tree, those changes include:

   - The SCMI firmware framework gains support for sensor notifications
     and for controlling voltage domains.

   - A large update for the Tegra memory controller driver, integrating
     it better with the interconnect framework

   - The memory controller subsystem gains support for Mediatek MT8192

   - The reset controller framework gains support for sharing pulsed
     resets

  For Soc specific drivers in drivers/soc, the main changes are

   - The Allwinner/sunxi MBUS gets a rework for the way it handles
     dma_map_ops and offsets between physical and dma address spaces.

   - An errata fix plus some cleanups for Freescale Layerscape SoCs

   - A cleanup for renesas drivers regarding MMIO accesses.

   - New SoC specific drivers for Mediatek MT8192 and MT8183 power
     domains

   - New SoC specific drivers for Aspeed AST2600 LPC bus control and SoC
     identification.

   - Core Power Domain support for Qualcomm MSM8916, MSM8939, SDM660 and
     SDX55.

   - A rework of the TI AM33xx 'genpd' power domain support to use
     information from DT instead of platform data

   - Support for TI AM64x SoCs

   - Allow building some Amlogic drivers as modules instead of built-in

  Finally, there are numerous cleanups and smaller bug fixes for
  Mediatek, Tegra, Samsung, Qualcomm, TI OMAP, Amlogic, Rockchips,
  Renesas, and Xilinx SoCs"

Pull IOMMU updates from Will Deacon:
 "There's a good mixture of improvements to the core code and driver
  changes across the board.

  One thing worth pointing out is that this includes a quirk to work
  around behaviour in the i915 driver (see 65f746e8285f ("iommu: Add
  quirk for Intel graphic devices in map_sg")), which otherwise
  interacts badly with the conversion of the intel IOMMU driver over to
  the DMA-IOMMU APU but has being fixed properly in the DRM tree.

  We'll revert the quirk later this cycle once we've confirmed that
  things don't fall apart without it.

  Summary:

   - IOVA allocation optimisations and removal of unused code

   - Introduction of DOMAIN_ATTR_IO_PGTABLE_CFG for parameterising the
     page-table of an IOMMU domain

   - Support for changing the default domain type in sysfs

   - Optimisation to the way in which identity-mapped regions are
     created

   - Driver updates:
       * Arm SMMU updates, including continued work on Shared Virtual
         Memory
       * Tegra SMMU updates, including support for PCI devices
       * Intel VT-D updates, including conversion to the IOMMU-DMA API

   - Cleanup, kerneldoc and minor refactoring"

The offset of the field 'init_uts_ns.name' has changed since commit
9a56493f6942 ("uts: Use generic ns_common::count").

Make the offset of the field 'uts_namespace.name' available in VMCOREINFO
because tools like 'crash-utility' and 'makedumpfile' must be able to read
it from crash dumps.
