Merge tag 'armsoc-drivers' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/arm/arm-soc
Pull ARM SoC driver updates from Kevin Hilman:
"Some of these are for drivers/soc, where we're now putting
SoC-specific drivers these days. Some are for other driver subsystems
where we have received acks from the appropriate maintainers.
Some highlights:
- simple-mfd: document DT bindings and misc updates
- migrate mach-berlin to simple-mfd for clock, pinctrl and reset
- memory: support for Tegra132 SoC
- memory: introduce tegra EMC driver for scaling memory frequency
- misc. updates for ARM CCI and CCN busses"
