Linus Torvalds cbd7b8a76b platform-drivers-x86 for v4.16-1
New model support added for Dell, Ideapad, Acer, Asus, Thinkpad, and GPD
 laptops.  Improvements to the common intel-vbtn driver, including tablet
 mode, rotate, and front button support. Intel CPU support added for
 Cannonlake and platform support for Dollar Cove power button.
 
 Overhaul of the mellanox platform driver, creating a new
 platform/mellanox directory for the newly multi-architecture regmap
 interface.
 
 Significant Intel PMC update with CannonLake support, Coffeelake update,
 CPUID enumeration, module support, new read64 API, refactoring and
 cleanups.
 
 Revert the apple-gmux iGP IO lock, addressing reported issues with
 non-binary drivers, leaving Nvidia binary driver users to comment out
 conflicting code.
 
 Miscellaneous fixes and cleanups.
