Merge tag 'char-misc-3.9-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/char-misc

Pull char/misc driver patches from Greg Kroah-Hartman:
 "Here's the big char/misc driver patches for 3.9-rc1.

  Nothing major here, just lots of different driver updates (mei,
  hyperv, ipack, extcon, vmci, etc.).

  All of these have been in the linux-next tree for a while."

+ * In more detail. When a VMCI queue pair is first created, it will be in the
+ * VMCIQPB_NEW state. It will then move into one of the following states:
+ *
+ * - VMCIQPB_CREATED_NO_MEM: this state indicates that either:
+ *
+ *     - the created was performed by a host endpoint, in which case there is
+ *       no backing memory yet.
+ *
+ *     - the create was initiated by an old-style VMX, that uses
+ *       vmci_qp_broker_set_page_store to specify the UVAs of the queue pair at
+ *       a later point in time. This state can be distinguished from the one
+ *       above by the context ID of the creator. A host side is not allowed to
+ *       attach until the page store has been set.
+ *
+ * - VMCIQPB_CREATED_MEM: this state is the result when the queue pair
+ *     is created by a VMX using the queue pair device backend that
+ *     sets the UVAs of the queue pair immediately and stores the
+ *     information for later attachers. At this point, it is ready for
+ *     the host side to attach to it.
+ *
+ * Once the queue pair is in one of the created states (with the exception of
+ * the case mentioned for older VMX'en above), it is possible to attach to the
+ * queue pair. Again we have two new states possible:
+ *
+ * - VMCIQPB_ATTACHED_MEM: this state can be reached through the following
+ *   paths:
+ *
+ *     - from VMCIQPB_CREATED_NO_MEM when a new-style VMX allocates a queue
+ *       pair, and attaches to a queue pair previously created by the host side.
+ *
+ *     - from VMCIQPB_CREATED_MEM when the host side attaches to a queue pair
+ *       already created by a guest.
+ *
+ *     - from VMCIQPB_ATTACHED_NO_MEM, when an old-style VMX calls
+ *       vmci_qp_broker_set_page_store (see below).
+ *
+ * - VMCIQPB_ATTACHED_NO_MEM: If the queue pair already was in the
+ *     VMCIQPB_CREATED_NO_MEM due to a host side create, an old-style VMX will
+ *     bring the queue pair into this state. Once vmci_qp_broker_set_page_store
+ *     is called to register the user memory, the VMCIQPB_ATTACH_MEM state
+ *     will be entered.
+ *
+ * From the attached queue pair, the queue pair can enter the shutdown states
+ * when either side of the queue pair detaches. If the guest side detaches
+ * first, the queue pair will enter the VMCIQPB_SHUTDOWN_NO_MEM state, where
+ * the content of the queue pair will no longer be available. If the host
+ * side detaches first, the queue pair will either enter the
+ * VMCIQPB_SHUTDOWN_MEM, if the guest memory is currently mapped, or
+ * VMCIQPB_SHUTDOWN_NO_MEM, if the guest memory is not mapped
+ * (e.g., the host detaches while a guest is stunned).
+ *
+ * New-style VMX'en will also unmap guest memory, if the guest is
+ * quiesced, e.g., during a snapshot operation. In that case, the guest
+ * memory will no longer be available, and the queue pair will transition from
+ * *_MEM state to a *_NO_MEM state. The VMX may later map the memory once more,
+ * in which case the queue pair will transition from the *_NO_MEM state at that
+ * point back to the *_MEM state. Note that the *_NO_MEM state may have changed,
+ * since the peer may have either attached or detached in the meantime. The
+ * values are laid out such that ++ on a state will move from a *_NO_MEM to a
+ * *_MEM state, and vice versa.
