This reverts commit 81f95076281fdd3bc382e004ba1bce8e82fccbce.
It causes random failures of firmware loading at resume time (well,
random for me, it seems to be more reliable for others) because the
firmware disabling is not actually synchronous with any particular
resume event, and at least the btusb driver that uses a workqueue to
load the firmware at resume seems to occasionally hit the "firmware
loading is disabled" logic because the firmware loader hasn't gotten the
resume event yet.
Some kind of sanity check for not trying to load firmware when it's not
possible might be a good thing, but this commit was not it.
Greg seems to have silently suffered the same issue, and pointed to the
likely culprit, and Gabriel C verified the revert fixed it for him too.

Pull GPIO updates from Linus Walleij:
"This is the bulk of the GPIO changes for the v4.14 cycle.
Not so much changes this time, phew. David Daney and Bartosz
Golaszewski did all the really interesting work in infrastructure
improvement across GPIO and IRQ core, hats off for them and to tglx
and Marc Z for general help with these patch sets.
Core changes:
- Allow the GPIO irqchip to allocate IRQs dynamically. This is an
important change on systems where only a restricted number of IRQs,
lesser than the number of GPIO lines, can be utilized. Now we can
allocate these on a first-come-first-served basis instead of
hogging up valuable IRQ lines.
- Serious fix-up of the kerneldoc documentation and inclusion into
the kerneldoc builds.
- Pulled in the IRQ simulator from the IRQ core tree and use this in
the GPIO mockup driver for exhaustive testing of interrupt
abilities.
New drivers:
- New driver for ThunderX and OCTEON-TX. This is especially
interesting as it picks up improvements from the IRQ core that
allow us to handle fasteoi ACKs upwards in a hierarchy when there
are IRQ flag latches on several levels in a hierarchy. Very
interesting work here.
- New subdriver for Renesas R-Car r8a7745 (RZ/G1E).
Misc:
- Several fixes and improvements for Xilinx Zynq GPIO.
- Support an enablement GPIO for the 74x164 GPIO.
- Switch a bunch of chips to use devres to allocate irq descriptors.
- A bunch of constification fixes"

This adds a section about the various parts of the GPIO subsystem to the

We are planning to share more code between different NAND based
devices (SPI NAND, OneNAND and raw NANDs), but before doing that
we need to move the existing include/linux/mtd/nand.h file into
include/linux/mtd/rawnand.h so we can later create a nand.h header
containing all common structure and function prototypes.

The firmware API should not be used after we go to suspend
and after we reboot/halt. The suspend/resume case is a bit
complex, so this documents that so things are clearer.
We want to know about users of the API in incorrect places so
that their callers are corrected, so this also adds a warn
for those cases.

9) Multiqueue support in stmmac driver (Joao Pinto)
10) Remove TCP timewait recycling, it never really could possibly work
well in the real world and timestamp randomization really zaps any
hint of usability this feature had (Soheil Hassas Yeganeh)
11) Support level3 vs level4 ECMP route hashing in ipv4 (Nikolay
Aleksandrov)
12) Add socket busy poll support to epoll (Sridhar Samudrala)
13) Netlink extended ACK support (Johannes Berg, Pablo Neira Ayuso,
and several others)
14) IPSEC hw offload infrastructure (Steffen Klassert)"

The contents of proc_usb_info.txt complements what's there at
driver-api usb book. Yet, it is outdated, as it still refers
to the USB character devices as usbfs.
So, move the contents to usb.rst, adjusting it to point to
the right places.

There's no usbfs anymore. The old features are now either
exported to /dev/bus/usb or via debugfs.
Update documentation accordingly, pointing to the new
places where the character devices and usb/devices are
now placed.

As some USB documentation files got moved, adjust their
cross-references to their new place.

The URB doc describes the Kernel mechanism that do USB transfers.
While the functions are already described at urb.h, there are a
number of concepts and theory that are important for USB driver
developers.
Convert it to ReST and use C ref links to point to the places
at usb.h where each function and struct is located.
A few of those descriptions were incomplete. While here, update
to reflect the current API status.
