This PFSM controls the operational modes of the PMIC:
- STANDBY and LP_STANDBY,
- ACTIVE state,
- MCU_ONLY state,
- RETENTION state, with or without DDR and/or GPIO retention.
Depending on the current operational mode, some voltage domains
remain energized while others can be off.

This PFSM is also used to trigger a firmware update, and provides
R/W access to device registers.

See Documentation/misc-devices/tps6594-pfsm.rst for more
information.

This patch adds support for TPS6594 ESM (Error Signal Monitor).
This device monitors the SoC error output signal at its nERR_SOC input pin.
In error condition, ESM toggles its nRSTOUT_SOC pin to reset the SoC.

Pull char/misc and other driver subsystem updates from Greg KH:
 "Here is the large set of driver changes for char/misc drivers and
  other smaller driver subsystems that flow through this git tree.

  Included in here are:

   - New IIO drivers and features and improvments in that subsystem

   - New hwtracing drivers and additions to that subsystem

   - lots of interconnect changes and new drivers as that subsystem
     seems under very active development recently. This required also
     merging in the icc subsystem changes through this tree.

   - FPGA driver updates

   - counter subsystem and driver updates

   - MHI driver updates

   - nvmem driver updates

   - documentation updates

   - Other smaller driver updates and fixes, full details in the
     shortlog

  All of these have been in linux-next for a while with no reported
  problems"

<id>e65e175b07bef5974045cc42238de99057669ca7</id>
<content type='text'>
Now that we have a subsystem for compute accelerators, move the
habanalabs driver to it.

This patch only moves the files and fixes the Makefiles. Future
patches will change the existing code to register to the accel
subsystem and expose the accel device char files instead of the
habanalabs device char files.

Update the MAINTAINERS file to reflect this change.

Triple Modular Redundancy(TMR) subsystem contains three microblaze cores,
subsystem is fault-tolerant and continues to operate nominally after
encountering an error. Together with the capability to detect and recover
from errors, the implementation ensures the reliability of the entire
subsystem.  TMR Manager is responsible for performing recovery of the
subsystem detects the fault via a break signal it invokes microblaze
software break handler which calls the tmr manager driver api to
update the error count and status, added support for fault detection
feature via sysfs interface.

Usage:
To know the break handler count(Error count):

pci1xxxx is a PCIe switch with a multi-function endpoint on one of its
downstream ports. PIO function is one of the functions in the
multi-function endpoint. PIO function combines a GPIO controller and also
an interface to program pci1xxxx's OTP &amp; EEPROM. This auxiliary bus driver
is loaded for the PIO function and separate child devices are enumerated
for GPIO controller and OTP/EEPROM interface.

This driver creates per-cpu hrtimers which are required to do the
periodic 'pet' operation. On a conventional watchdog-core driver, the
userspace is responsible for delivering the 'pet' events by writing to
the particular /dev/watchdogN node. In this case we require a strong
thread affinity to be able to account for lost time on a per vCPU.

This part of the driver is the 'frontend' which is reponsible for
delivering the periodic 'pet' events, configuring the virtual peripheral
and listening for cpu hotplug events. The other part of the driver is
an emulated MMIO device which is part of the KVM virtual machine
monitor and this part accounts for lost time by looking at the
/proc/{}/task/{}/stat entries.
