Char/Misc driver patches for 4.16-rc1

Here is the big pull request for char/misc drivers for 4.16-rc1.
 
 There's a lot of stuff in here.  Three new driver subsystems were added
 for various types of hardware busses:
 	- siox
 	- slimbus
 	- soundwire
 as well as a new vboxguest subsystem for the VirtualBox hypervisor
 drivers.
 
 There's also big updates from the FPGA subsystem, lots of Android binder
 fixes, the usual handful of hyper-v updates, and lots of other smaller
 driver updates.
 
 All of these have been in linux-next for a long time, with no reported
 issues.
