Merge tag 'devicetree-for-4.13' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/robh/linux
Pull DeviceTree updates from Rob Herring: - vsprintf format specifier %pOF for device_node's. This will enable us to stop storing the full node names. Conversion of users will happen next cycle. - Update documentation to point to DT specification instead of ePAPR. - Split out graph and property functions to a separate file. - New of-graph functions for ALSA - Add vendor prefixes for RISC-V, Linksys, iWave Systems, Roofull, Itead, and BananaPi. - Improve dtx_diff utility filename printing. * tag 'devicetree-for-4.13' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/robh/linux: (32 commits) of: document /sys/firmware/fdt dt-bindings: Add RISC-V vendor prefix vsprintf: Add %p extension "%pOF" for device tree of: find_node_by_full_name rewrite to compare each level of: use kbasename instead of open coding dt-bindings: thermal: add file extension to brcm,ns-thermal of: update ePAPR references to point to Devicetree Specification scripts/dtc: dtx_diff - Show real file names in diff header of: detect invalid phandle in overlay of: be consistent in form of file mode of: make __of_attach_node() static of: address.c header comment typo of: fdt.c header comment typo of: make of_fdt_is_compatible() static dt-bindings: display-timing.txt convert non-ascii characters to ascii Documentation: remove overlay-notes reference to non-existent file dt-bindings: usb: exynos-usb: Add missing required VDD properties dt-bindings: Add vendor prefix for Linksys MAINTAINERS: add device tree ABI documentation file of: Add vendor prefix for iWave Systems Technologies Pvt.
