Pull char / misc and documentation fixes from Greg KH:
"Here are some small char/misc and nvmem and documentation fixes for
7.2-rc7 to resolve some reported issues. Included in here are:
- updates to the documentation for the kernel threat model and
security bugs to get the LLMs to actually follow what we have been
asking them to do (i.e. not claim security issues for things we do
not consider security issues.)
- nvmem driver fixes which required a tiny "layout" driver to be
added.
- fastrpc driver fixes
- mei driver fix
- counter driver fix
- binder driver fix
All of these have been in linux-next this week with no reported
problems"
