Merge tag 'for-v3.10' of git://git.infradead.org/battery-2.6
Pull battery updates from Anton Vorontsov: "Highlights: - OpenFirmware/DeviceTree support for the Power Supply core: the core now automatically populates supplied_from hierarchy from the device tree. With these patches chargers and batteries can now lookup each other without the board files support shim. Rhyland Klein at NVIDIA did the work - New ST-Ericsson ABX500 hwmon driver. The driver is heavily using the AB85xx core and depends on some recent changes to it, so that is why the driver comes through the battery tree. It has an appropriate ack from the hwmon maintainer (i.e. Guenter Roeck). Martin Persson at ST-Ericsson and Hongbo Zhang at Linaro authored the driver - Final bits to sync AB85xx ST-Ericsson changes into mainline. The changes touch mfd parts, but these were acked by the appropriate MFD maintainer (ie Samuel Ortiz). Lee Jones at Linaro did most of the work and lead the submission process. Minor changes, but still worth mentioning: - Battery temperature reporting fix for Nokia N900 phones - Versatile Express poweroff driver moved into drivers/power/reset/ - Tree-wide: use devm_kzalloc() where appropriate - Tree-wide: dev_pm_ops cleanups/fixes" * tag 'for-v3.10' of git://git.infradead.org/battery-2.6: (112 commits) pm2301-charger: Fix suspend/resume charger-manager: Use kmemdup instead of kzalloc + memcpy power_supply: Populate supplied_from hierarchy from the device tree power_supply: Add core support for supplied_from power_supply: Define Binding for power-supplies rx51_battery: Fix reporting temperature hwmon: Add ST-Ericsson ABX500 hwmon driver ab8500_bmdata: Export abx500_res_to_temp tables for hwmon ab8500_{bmdata,fg}: Add const attributes to some data arrays ab8500_bmdata: Eliminate CamelCase warning of some variables ab8500_btemp: Make ab8500_btemp_get* interfaces public goldfish_battery: Use resource_size() lp8788-charger: Use PAGE_SIZE for the sysfs read operation max8925_power: Use devm_kzalloc() da9030_battery: Use devm_kzalloc() da9052-battery: Use devm_kzalloc() ds2760_battery: Use devm_kzalloc() ds2780_battery: Use devm_kzalloc() gpio-charger: Use devm_kzalloc() isp1704_charger: Use devm_kzalloc() ...

+Kernel driver abx500
+====================
+
+Supported chips:
+ * ST-Ericsson ABx500 series
+ Prefix: 'abx500'
+ Addresses scanned: -

+Description
+-----------
+
+Every ST-Ericsson Ux500 SOC consists of both ABx500 and DBx500 physically,
+this is kernel hwmon driver for ABx500.
+
+There are some GPADCs inside ABx500 which are designed for connecting to
+thermal sensors, and there is also a thermal sensor inside ABx500 too, which
+raises interrupt when critical temperature reached.
+
+This abx500 is a common layer which can monitor all of the sensors, every
+specific abx500 chip has its special configurations in its own file, e.g. some
+sensors can be configured invisible if they are not available on that chip, and
+the corresponding gpadc_addr should be set to 0, thus this sensor won't be
+polled.
