Linus Torvalds 41844e3620 Staging/IIO patches for 4.9-rc1
Here is the big staging and IIO driver pull request for 4.9-rc1.
 
 There are a lot of patches in here, the majority due to the
 drivers/staging/greybus/ subsystem being merged in with full development
 history that went back a few years, in order to preserve the work that
 those developers did over time.  This was done the same way that btrfs
 was merged into the tree, so all should be ok there.
 
 Lots and lots of tiny cleanups happened in the tree as well, due to the
 Outreachy application process and lots of other developers showing up
 for the first time to clean code up.  Along with those changes, we
 deleted a wireless driver, and added a raspberrypi driver (currently
 marked broken), and lots of new iio drivers.
 
 Overall the tree still shrunk with more lines removed than added, about
 10 thousand lines removed in total.  Full details are in the very long
 shortlog below.
 
 All of this has been in the linux-next tree with no issues.  There will
 be some merge problems with other subsystem trees, but those are all
 minor problems and shouldn't be hard to work out when they happen
 (MAINTAINERS and some lustre build problems with the IB tree.)

And furter from me asking for clarification about greybus:
 "Right now there is a phone from Motorola shipping with this code (a
  slightly older version, but the same tree), so even though Ara is not
  alive in the same form, the functionality is happening. We are working
  with the developers of that phone to merge the newer stuff in with
  their fork so they can use the upstream version in future versions of
  their phone product line.

  Toshiba has at least one chip shipping in their catalog that
  needs/uses this protocol over a Unipro link, and rumor has it that
  there might be more in the future.

  There are also other users of the greybus protocols, there is a talk
  next week at ELC that shows how it is being used across a network
  connection to control a device, and previous ELC talks have showed the
  protocol stack being used over USB to drive embedded Linux boards.
  I've also talked to some people who are starting to work to add a host
  controller driver to control arduinos as the greybus PHY protocols are
  very useful to control a serial/i2c/spio/whatever device across a
  random physical link, as it is a way to have a self-describing device
  be attached to a host without needing manual configuration.

  So yes, people are using it, and there is still the chance that it
  will show up in a phone/laptop/tablet/whatever from Google in the
  future as well, the tech isn't dead, even if the original large phone
  project happens to be"
