Pull KVM updates from Paolo Bonzini:
 "At over 200 commits, covering almost all supported architectures, this
  was a pretty active cycle for KVM.  Changes include:

   - a lot of s390 changes: optimizations, support for migration, GDB
     support and more

   - ARM changes are pretty small: support for the PSCI 0.2 hypercall
     interface on both the guest and the host (the latter acked by
     Catalin)

   - initial POWER8 and little-endian host support

   - support for running u-boot on embedded POWER targets

   - pretty large changes to MIPS too, completing the userspace
     interface and improving the handling of virtualized timer hardware

   - for x86, a larger set of changes is scheduled for 3.17.  Still, we
     have a few emulator bugfixes and support for running nested
     fully-virtualized Xen guests (para-virtualized Xen guests have
     always worked).  And some optimizations too.

  The only missing architect...

Pull gfs2 updates from Steven Whitehouse:
 "This must be about the smallest merge window patch set ever for GFS2.
  It is probably also the first one without a single patch from me.
  That is down to a combination of factors, and I have some things in
  the works that are not quite ready yet, that I hope to put in next
  time around.

  Returning to what is here this time...  we have 3 patches which fix
  various warnings.  Two are bug fixes (for quotas and also a rare
  recovery race condition).  The final patch, from Ben Marzinski, is an
  important change in the freeze code which has been in progress for
  some time.  This removes the need to take and drop the transaction
  lock for every single transaction, when the only time it was used, was
  at file system freeze time.  Ben's patch integrates the freeze
  operation into the journal flush code as an alternative with lower
  overheads and also lands up resolving some difficult to fix races at
  the same time"

of going through the relevant maintainer tree.

   - Antoine also provides an entirely new driver for the Marvell Berlin
     SoC.  This is unrelated to the existing MVEBU hardware driver and
     warrants its own separate driver.

   - reflected from the GPIO subsystem there is a number of refactorings
     to make pin control drivers with gpiochips use the new gpiolib
     irqchip helpers.  The following drivers were converted to use the
     new infrastructure:
       * ST Microelectronics STiH416 and friends
       * The Atmel AT91
       * The CSR SiRF (Prima2)

Pull first set of s390 updates from Martin Schwidefsky:
 "The biggest change in this patchset is conversion from the bootmem
  bitmaps to the memblock code.  This conversion requires two common
  code patches to introduce the 'physmem' memblock list.

  We experimented with ticket spinlocks but in the end decided against
  them as they perform poorly on virtualized systems.  But the spinlock
  cleanup and some small improvements are included.

  The uaccess code got another optimization, the get_user/put_user calls
  are now inline again for kernel compiles targeted at z10 or newer
  machines.  This makes the text segment shorter and the code gets a
  little bit faster.

  And as always some bug fixes"

 "Here is the big USB driver pull request for 3.16-rc1.

  Nothing huge here, but lots of little things in the USB core, and in
  lots of drivers.  Hopefully the USB power management will be work
  better now that it has been reworked to do per-port power control
  dynamically.  There's also a raft of gadget driver updates and fixes,
  CONFIG_USB_DEBUG is finally gone now that everything has been
  converted over to the dynamic debug inteface, the last hold-out
  drivers were cleaned up and the config option removed.  There were
  also other minor things all through the drivers/usb/ tree, the
  shortlog shows this pretty well.

  All have been in linux-next, including the very last patch, which came
  from linux-next to fix a build issue on some platforms"

Pull ARM SoC driver changes from Olof Johansson:
 "SoC-near driver changes that we're merging through our tree.  Mostly
  because they depend on other changes we have staged, but in some cases
  because the driver maintainers preferred that we did it this way.

  This contains a largeish cleanup series of the omap_l3_noc bus driver,
  cpuidle rework for Exynos, some reset driver conversions and a long
  branch of TI EDMA fixes and cleanups, with more to come next release.

  The TI EDMA cleanups is a shared branch with the dmaengine tree, with
  a handful of Davinci-specific fixes on top.

  After discussion at last year's KS (and some more on the mailing
  lists), we are here adding a drivers/soc directory.  The purpose of
  this is to keep per-vendor shared code that's needed by different
  drivers but that doesn't fit into the MFD (nor drivers/platform)
  model.  We expect to keep merging contents for this hierarchy through
  arm-soc so we can keep an eye on what the vendors keep adding here and
  not making it a free-for-all to shove in crazy stuff"
