[PATCH linux dev-4.13 00/23] Migrate changes in dev-4.10 to dev-4.13

Hello,

This is a patchbomb series partly to instigate discussion about how to do this
kind of thing in the future, but also to bring most of the changes I'm
responsible for in dev-4.10 forward to dev-4.13 where appropriate.

The series brings, along with their dependencies:

* The MAX31785 driver
* LEDs enhancements and fixes
* Watchdog enhancements and fixes

Patchbombing like this probably isn't the best thing to do, so we should
probably figure out what is. The approach - rebasing the dev-4.10 stack on
dev-4.13 - seemed to me the easiest way to get the result of having all my
patches up to date where possible, aside from some effort spent cherry-picking
back those which are now upstream but are so beyond 4.13.

It might be slightly less of a patchbomb to split this into smaller
series, which is a bit more fiddly but nothing major. Arguably the end result
is the same as a single series, as the patches themselves are still consumable
on an individual basis.

Another approach is sending some mail detailing the upstream commit IDs to be
cherry-picked back, and further mail for any remaining patches.

Regardless, we need to consider how the OpenBMC-Staging-Count tag is managed in
any case. I haven't fixed the tags in the patches I'm sending here - I figure
it's up to the maintainers to bump that as appropriate when they apply the
change.

Which approach should we take?

In the mean time, here are the patches for your viewing pleasure.
