The YT3 uses an TI LP8557 LED backlight controller, the LP8557's PWM input
is connected to a PWM output coming from the LCD panel's controller.
The Android kernel has a hack in the i915 driver to write the non-standard
DSI reg 0x51 with the desired level to set the duty-cycle of the LCD's PWM.
To avoid having to have a similar hack in the mainline kernel program
instantiate an i2c-client for the LP8557 with platform-data to have
the LP8557 to directly set the level (ignoring its PWM input), this allows
backlight brightness control through a backlight device registered by
the lp855x_bl driver.

The Peaq C1010 tablet has a special "Dolby" button. This button has
a WMI interface, but this is broken in several ways:
1. It only supports polling
2. The value read on polling goes from 0 -> 1 for one poll on both edges
of the button, with no way to tell which edge causes the poll to
return 1.
3. It uses a non unique GUID (it uses the Microsoft docs WMI example GUID).
There currently is a WMI driver for this, but it uses several kludges
to work around these issues and is not entirely reliable due to 2.
Replace the unreliable WMI driver by using the x86-android-tablets code

REGMAP is a hidden (not user visible) symbol. Users cannot set it
directly thru "make *config", so drivers should select it instead of
depending on it if they need it.
Consistently using "select" or "depends on" can also help reduce
Kconfig circular dependency issues.
Therefore, change the use of "depends on REGMAP" to "select REGMAP".
For NVSW_SN2201, select REGMAP_I2C instead of depending on it.

Commit aa47a7c215 ("lib/cpumask: deprecate nr_cpumask_bits") resulted
in the cpumask operations potentially becoming hugely less efficient,
because suddenly the cpumask was always considered to be variable-sized.
The optimization was then later added back in a limited form by commit
6f9c07be9d ("lib/cpumask: add FORCE_NR_CPUS config option"), but that
FORCE_NR_CPUS option is not useful in a generic kernel and more of a
special case for embedded situations with fixed hardware.
Instead, just re-introduce the optimization, with some changes.
Instead of depending on CPUMASK_OFFSTACK being false, and then always
using the full constant cpumask width, this introduces three different
cpumask "sizes":
- the exact size (nr_cpumask_bits) remains identical to nr_cpu_ids.
This is used for situations where we should use the exact size.
- the "small" size (small_cpumask_bits) is the NR_CPUS constant if it
fits in a single word and the bitmap operations thus end up able
to trigger the "small_const_nbits()" optimizations.
This is used for the operations that have optimized single-word
cases that get inlined, notably the bit find and scanning functions.
- the "large" size (large_cpumask_bits) is the NR_CPUS constant if it
is an sufficiently small constant that makes simple "copy" and
"clear" operations more efficient.
This is arbitrarily set at four words or less.
As a an example of this situation, without this fixed size optimization,
cpumask_clear() will generate code like
movl nr_cpu_ids(%rip), %edx
addq $63, %rdx
shrq $3, %rdx
andl $-8, %edx
callq memset@PLT
on x86-64, because it would calculate the "exact" number of longwords
that need to be cleared.
In contrast, with this patch, using a MAX_CPU of 64 (which is quite a
reasonable value to use), the above becomes a single
movq $0,cpumask
instruction instead, because instead of caring to figure out exactly how
many CPU's the system has, it just knows that the cpumask will be a
single word and can just clear it all.
Note that this does end up tightening the rules a bit from the original
version in another way: operations that set bits in the cpumask are now
limited to the actual nr_cpu_ids limit, whereas we used to do the
nr_cpumask_bits thing almost everywhere in the cpumask code.
But if you just clear bits, or scan for bits, we can use the simpler
compile-time constants.
In the process, remove 'cpumask_complement()' and 'for_each_cpu_not()'
which were not useful, and which fundamentally have to be limited to
'nr_cpu_ids'. Better remove them now than have somebody introduce use
of them later.
Of course, on x86-64 with MAXSMP there is no sane small compile-time
constant for the cpumask sizes, and we end up using the actual CPU bits,
and will generate the above kind of horrors regardless. Please don't
use MAXSMP unless you really expect to have machines with thousands of
cores.
