      Pull ARM SoC late updates from Olof Johansson:
       "A couple of late-merged changes that would be useful to get in this
        merge window:
      
         - Driver support for reset of audio complex on Meson platforms. The
           audio driver went in this merge window, and these changes have been
           in -next for a while (just not in our tree).
      
         - Power management fixes for IOMMU on Rockchip platforms, getting
           closer to kexec working on them, including Chromebooks.
      
         - Another pass updating "arm,psci" -> "psci" for some properties that
           have snuck in since last time it was done"

      mm/cow: don't bother write protecting already write-protected pages · 1b2de5d0
      Linus Torvalds authored
      This is not normally noticeable, but repeated forks are unnecessarily
      expensive because they repeatedly dirty the parent page tables during
      the page table copy operation.
      
      It's trivial to just avoid write protecting the page table entry if it
      was already not writable.
      
      This patch was inspired by
      
          https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=200447
      
      which points to an ancient "waste time re-doing fork" issue in the
      presence of lots of signals.
      
      That bug was fixed by Eric Biederman's signal handling series
      culminating in commit c3ad2c3b ("signal: Don't restart fork when
      signals come in"), but the unnecessary work for repeated forks is still
      work just fixing, particularly since the fix is trivial.

      hpfs: remove unnecessary checks on the value of r when assigning error code · e0fcfe1f
      Colin Ian King authored
      At the point where r is being checked for different values, r is always
      going to be equal to 2 as the previous if statements jump to end or end1
      if r is not 2.  Hence the assignment to err can be simplified to just
      err an assignment without any checks on the value or r.

      Thanks for your work in this area. I still remember the first linux
      storage summit we did in Vancouver 2001, Tejun was invited to talk about
      his libata error handling work. Before that, it was basically a crap
      shoot if we recovered properly or not... A lot of water has flown under
      the bridge since then!
      
      Here's an "official" patch. Linus, can you apply it?
