Char/Misc patches for 4.6-rc1

Here is the big char/misc driver update for 4.6-rc1.
 
 The majority of the patches here is hwtracing and some new mic drivers,
 but there's a lot of other driver updates as well.  Full details in the
 shortlog.
 
 All have been in linux-next for a while with no reported issues.

Since it is a PCIe card, it does not have the ability to host hardware
devices for networking, storage and console. We provide these devices
on X100 coprocessors thus enabling a self-bootable equivalent environment
for applications. A key benefit of our solution is that it leverages
the standard virtio framework for network, disk and console devices,
though in our case the virtio framework is used across a PCIe bus.

environment for applications. A key benefit of our solution is that it
leverages the standard virtio framework for network, disk and console
devices, though in our case the virtio framework is used across a PCIe
bus. A Virtio Over PCIe (VOP) driver allows creating user space
backends or devices on the host which are used to probe virtio drivers
for these devices on the MIC card. The existing VRINGH infrastructure
in the kernel is used to access virtio rings from the host. The card
VOP driver allows card virtio drivers to communicate with their user
space backends on the host via a device page. Ring 3 apps on the host
can add, remove and configure virtio devices. A thin MIC specific
virtio_config_ops is implemented which is borrowed heavily from
previous similar implementations in lguest and s390.
MIC PCIe card has a dma controller with 8 channels. These channels are
shared between the host s/w and the card s/w. 0 to 3 are used by host
