/sys/firmware/acpi/hotplug/force_remove was presumably added to support
auto offlining in the past. This is, however, inherently dangerous for
some hotplugable resources like memory. The memory offlining fails when
the memory is still in use and cannot be dropped or migrated. If we
ignore the failure we are basically allowing for subtle memory
corruption or a crash.
We have actually noticed the later while hitting BUG() during the memory
hotremove (remove_memory):
ret = walk_memory_range(PFN_DOWN(start), PFN_UP(start + size - 1), NULL,
check_memblock_offlined_cb);
if (ret)
BUG();
it took us quite non-trivial time realize that the customer had
force_remove enabled. Even if the BUG was removed here and we could
propagate the error up the call chain it wouldn't help at all because
then we would hit a crash or a memory corruption later and harder to
debug. So force_remove is unfixable for the memory hotremove. We haven't
checked other hotplugable resources to be prone to a similar problems.
Remove the force_remove functionality because it is not fixable currently.
Keep the sysfs file and report an error if somebody tries to enable it.
Encourage users to report about the missing functionality and work with
them with an alternative solution.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mmind/linux-rockchip into clk-next
Pull rockchip clk driver updates from Heiko Stuebner:
General rockchip clock changes for 4.12. Contains some new clock-ids
as well as fixups of the clock-ids on rk3368 timers, which were unused
and completely wrong (more and differently named timers).
Also there is one new clock on rk3328 using the muxgrf type, a fix for
pll enablement which should wait for the pll to lock before continuing,
some more critical clocks and the rename of the rk1108 to rv1108, as the
soc seems to have been using a preliminary name before its actual release.
The plan is to have the driver changes (pinctrl, clk) go through the
respective maintainer trees and once everything landed in mainline do
the rename of the devicetree files. With the dts-include change in the
clock rename, we also keep everything compiling and thus bisectability.

In the following example, if MAX is defined to be 1, then the compiler
knows (Q % MAX) is equal to zero. The compiler can therefore throw
away the "then" branch (and the "if"), retaining only the "else" branch.
q = READ_ONCE(a);
if (q % MAX) {
WRITE_ONCE(b, 1);
do_something();
} else {
WRITE_ONCE(b, 2);
do_something_else();
}
It is therefore necessary to modify the example like this:
q = READ_ONCE(a);
- WRITE_ONCE(b, 1);
+ WRITE_ONCE(b, 2);
do_something_else();

This commit adds a description of how expedited grace periods operate
during the mid-boot "dead zone", which starts when the scheduler spawns
the first kthread and ends when all of RCU's kthreads have been spawned.
In short, before mid-boot, synchronous grace periods can be a no-op.
After the end of mid-boot, workqueues may be used. During mid-boot,
the requesting task drivees the expedited grace period.
For more detail, see https://lwn.net/Articles/716148/.

the VID pin of the regulator where duty cycle of PWM signal decide
the voltage level of the regulator output.

This file is actually quite complex, and required several
manual handwork:
- add a title for the document;
- use the right tags for monospaced fonts;
- use c references where needed;
- adjust cross-reference to writing_usb_driver.rst
- hightlight cross-referenced lines.
With regards to C code snippet line highlights, the better would be
to use :linenos: for the C code snippets that are referenced by
the line number. However, at least with Sphinx 1.4.9, enabling
it cause the line number to be misaligned with the code,
making it even more confusing. So, instead, let's use
:emphasize-lines: tag to mark the lines that are referenced
at the text.

other miscellaneous items, we have most of the changes in dwc3 (52.5%)

As for the actual changes, the most important of them are all the
recent changes to reduce memory footprint of dwc3, bare minimum
