Hi Linus,

Here is the other GPIO branch I have for this cycle. Alexandre has
done all of the legwork on this branch including getting it into
linux-next early and following up on the conflicts. You can read the
full description below. I've gone through and made sure the branch is
correct. It is based on a random commit from your tree, but by the
time I noticed that the merge window was getting really close and it
would have required a rebase to change. So I asked Alexandre to leave
it as-is because this is the branch that has spent a lot of quality
time in linux-next.

There are merge conflicts you need to be aware of. The full
description and instructions are below in the tag message.

The following changes since commit 10b38669d64c757cfd927e3820292c580ed70aae:

  Merge tag 'for-linus-v3.9-rc4' of git://oss.sgi.com/xfs/xfs

  gpio: update gpio Chinese documentation (2013-04-16 18:47:22 +0900)

----------------------------------------------------------------
Removal of GENERIC_GPIO for v3.10

GENERIC_GPIO now synonymous with GPIOLIB. There are no longer any valid
cases for enableing GENERIC_GPIO without GPIOLIB, even though it is
possible to do so which has been causing confusion and breakage. This
branch does the work to completely eliminate GENERIC_GPIO.

However, it is not trivial to just create a branch to remove it. Over
the course of the v3.9 cycle more code referencing GENERIC_GPIO has been
added to linux-next that conflicts with this branch. The following must
be done to resolve the conflicts when merging this branch into mainline:

* "git grep CONFIG_GENERIC_GPIO" should return 0 hits. Matches should be
  replaced with CONFIG_GPIOLIB
* "git grep '\bGENERIC_GPIO\b'" should return 1 hit in the Chinese
  documentation.
* Selectors of GENERIC_GPIO should be turned into selectors of GPIOLIB
* definitions of the option in architecture Kconfig code should be deleted.

Stephen has 3 merge fixup patches[1] that do the above. They are currently
applicable on mainline as of May 2nd.
