Merge Linus master into drm-next
The merge is clean, but the arm build fails afterwards, due to API changes in the regulator tree. I've included the patch into the merge to fix the build. Signed-off-by: Dave Airlie <airlied@redhat.com>

+What: /sys/block/zram<id>/num_reads
+Date: August 2015
+Contact: Sergey Senozhatsky <sergey.senozhatsky@gmail.com>
+Description:
+ The num_reads file is read-only and specifies the number of
+ reads (failed or successful) done on this device.
+ Now accessible via zram<id>/stat node.

+Description:
+ The num_writes file is read-only and specifies the number of
+ writes (failed or successful) done on this device.
+ Now accessible via zram<id>/stat node.

+Date: August 2015
+Contact: Sergey Senozhatsky <sergey.senozhatsky@gmail.com>
+Description:
+ The invalid_io file is read-only and specifies the number of
+ non-page-size-aligned I/O requests issued to this device.
+ Now accessible via zram<id>/io_stat node.
+
+What: /sys/block/zram<id>/failed_reads
+Date: August 2015
+Contact: Sergey Senozhatsky <sergey.senozhatsky@gmail.com>
+Description:
+ The failed_reads file is read-only and specifies the number of
+ failed reads happened on this device.
+ Now accessible via zram<id>/io_stat node.

+Date: August 2015

+Description:
+ The failed_writes file is read-only and specifies the number of

+Date: August 2015
+Contact: Sergey Senozhatsky <sergey.senozhatsky@gmail.com>
+Description:
+ The notify_free file is read-only. Depending on device usage
+ scenario it may account a) the number of pages freed because
+ of swap slot free notifications or b) the number of pages freed
+ because of REQ_DISCARD requests sent by bio. The former ones
+ are sent to a swap block device when a swap slot is freed, which
+ implies that this disk is being used as a swap disk. The latter
+ ones are sent by filesystem mounted with discard option,
+ whenever some data blocks are getting discarded.
+ Now accessible via zram<id>/io_stat node.
+
+What: /sys/block/zram<id>/zero_pages
+Date: August 2015
+Contact: Sergey Senozhatsky <sergey.senozhatsky@gmail.com>
+Description:
+ The zero_pages file is read-only and specifies number of zero
+ filled pages written to this disk. No memory is allocated for
+ such pages.
+ Now accessible via zram<id>/mm_stat node.
+
+What: /sys/block/zram<id>/orig_data_size
+Date: August 2015
+Contact: Sergey Senozhatsky <sergey.senozhatsky@gmail.com>
+Description:
+ The orig_data_size file is read-only and specifies uncompressed
+ size of data stored in this disk. This excludes zero-filled
+ pages (zero_pages) since no memory is allocated for them.
+ Unit: bytes
+ Now accessible via zram<id>/mm_stat node.
+
+What: /sys/block/zram<id>/compr_data_size
+Date: August 2015
+Contact: Sergey Senozhatsky <sergey.senozhatsky@gmail.com>
+Description:
+ The compr_data_size file is read-only and specifies compressed
+ size of data stored in this disk. So, compression ratio can be
+ calculated using orig_data_size and this statistic.
+ Unit: bytes
+ Now accessible via zram<id>/mm_stat node.
+
+What: /sys/block/zram<id>/mem_used_total
+Date: August 2015
+Contact: Sergey Senozhatsky <sergey.senozhatsky@gmail.com>
+Description:
+ The mem_used_total file is read-only and specifies the amount
+ of memory, including allocator fragmentation and metadata
+ overhead, allocated for this disk. So, allocator space
+ efficiency can be calculated using compr_data_size and this
+ statistic.
+ Unit: bytes
+ Now accessible via zram<id>/mm_stat node.
+
+What: /sys/block/zram<id>/mem_used_max
+Date: August 2015
+Contact: Sergey Senozhatsky <sergey.senozhatsky@gmail.com>
+Description:
+ The mem_used_max file is read/write and specifies the amount
+ of maximum memory zram have consumed to store compressed data.
+ For resetting the value, you should write "0". Otherwise,
+ you could see -EINVAL.
+ Unit: bytes
+ Downgraded to write-only node: so it's possible to set new
+ value only; its current value is stored in zram<id>/mm_stat
+ node.
+
+What: /sys/block/zram<id>/mem_limit
+Date: August 2015
+Contact: Sergey Senozhatsky <sergey.senozhatsky@gmail.com>
+Description:
+ The mem_limit file is read/write and specifies the maximum
+ amount of memory ZRAM can use to store the compressed data.
+ The limit could be changed in run time and "0" means disable
+ the limit. No limit is the initial state. Unit: bytes
+ Downgraded to write-only node: so it's possible to set new
+ value only; its current value is stored in zram<id>/mm_stat
+ node.
