The Linux kernel has a setting called dmesg_restrict. When true,
only processes with CAP_SYSLOG can view the kernel dmesg logs. This
helps prevent leaking of kernel information into user space.
On Android, it's possible to bypass these restrictions by viewing
/proc/last_kmsg.
This change makes /proc/last_kmsg require the same permissions as
dmesg.

being that they have an internal reference voltage and 8 instead of 4 DAC
channels.
staging:iio:dac:ad5064: Prepare driver for the addition of chip variants
Prepare the driver for the addition of chip variants with a different number of
channels. This is done by not hard-coding the number of channels, but instead
add a field to the chip info struct holding the number of channels. Also do not
embed the channel specs into the chip info, but rather store them independently.
This allows sharing the same channel spec between different chip infos.
staging:iio:dac:ad5064: Convert to extended channel info attributes
Use extended channel info attributes for the powerdown, powerdown_mode and
powerdown_mode_available attributes.
Note that this patch moves the chip info defintion around to avoid having to use
forward declarations for the extended channel info attributes callbacks.
Sometimes devices have per channel properties which either do not map nicely to
the current channel info scheme (e.g. string properties) or are very device
specific, so it does not make sense to add generic support for them.
Currently drivers define these attributes by hand for each channel. Depending on
the number of channels this can amount to quite a few lines of boilerplate code.
Especially if a driver supports multiple variations of a chip with different
numbers of channels. In this case it becomes necessary to have a individual
attribute list per chip variation and also a individual iio_info struct.
This patch introduces a new scheme for handling such per channel attributes
called extended channel info attributes. A extended channel info attribute
consist of a name, a flag whether it is shared and read and write callbacks.
The read and write callbacks are similar to the {read,write}_raw callbacks and
take a IIO device and a channel as their first parameters, but instead of
pre-parsed integer values they directly get passed the raw string value, which
has been written to the sysfs file.
It is possible to assign a list of extended channel info attributes to a
channel. For each extended channel info attribute the IIO core will create a new
sysfs attribute conforming to the IIO channel naming spec for the channels type,
similar as for normal info attributes. Read and write access to this sysfs
attribute will be redirected to the extended channel info attributes read and
write callbacks.
Use dev_pm_ops instead of legacy suspend/resume callbacks for IIO drivers.
Note that this patch introduces a few new #ifdef CONFIG_PM_SLEEP around the
suspend and resume callbacks to avoid warnings of unused functions if
CONFIG_PM_SLEEP is not defined.

Stick to name only as suggested by Mark Brown (this has caused user
confusion in the regulator framework.)
V2: As per Greg KH suggestion, move over to registration by passing
the tables into the provider drivers (how regulator does it).
This does not prevent us using the original more flexible approach
if at a later date there is a usecase that demands it.

staging:iio:core set the iio_dev.info pointer to null on unregister under lock.
This prevents use of provider callbacks after it has been unregistered.
Note that all code using this that can be called from a consumer *must*
check the pointer before using and hold the info_exist_lock throughout
the usage of the callbacks in info.
In order to detect it at runtime, we need the code handling wdt
clock available at runtime to decide whether to enable or disable
based on the baseimage symbols. Default timeout has been set to 5
seconds.
Downside is that we will lose the option to set a custom timeout
for overflow, but than can be added (if needed) as part of debugfs.

Staging: wlan-ng: memsetting the wrong amount of data
p80211item_pstr6_t is the size of "msg1.bssid" (16 bytes) but
msg1.bssid.data is type p80211pstr6_t and it is smaller (7 bytes). We
had just set that memory to zeroes earlier and now we're writing over it
with 0xff because we're writing past the end of the struct.
I don't know if this actually causes a problem. It may be that we
initialize the extra 0xff bytes correctly later. But the current code
is obviously wrong and we should fix it.

netif_rx is meant to be called from interrupts because it doesn't wake
up ksoftirqd. For calling from outside interrupts, netif_rx_ni exists.
This stops the error "NOHZ: local_softirq_panding 08" that happens on
some machines with NOHZ and plip --- it is caused by the fact that
softirq is pending and ksoftirqd is sleeping.

Ramster can't be a module (yet) and depends on CONFIGFS_FS=y, but
allmodconfig builds with CONFIGFS_FS=m, which breaks the build.
And forcing CONFIGFS_FS=y with select breaks the build in other ways.
So just don't build ramster unless CONFIGFS_FS=y.
Also, while we're here, add a comment as to why BROKEN is depended.
