Merge tag 'asoc-v3.14-rc6' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/broonie/sound into for-linus
ASoC: Fixes for v3.14 A few things here: - Avoid memory leaks in error cases with DPCM, this code has never been that well tested in mainline due to the lack of mainline drivers but we now have one queued for the merge window! - Fix the N810 audio driver to load when booted with DT since the platform was converted to DT during the merge window. - Fixes for initialisation of some MFD drivers that are probably unused in mainline

- This driver uses ACPI INT3403 device objects. If present, it will
- register each INT3403 thermal sensor as a thermal zone.
+ Newer laptops and tablets that use ACPI may have thermal sensors
+ outside the core CPU/SOC for thermal safety reasons. These
+ temperature sensors are also exposed for the OS to use via the so
+ called INT3403 ACPI object. This driver will, on devices that have
+ such sensors, expose the temperature information from these sensors
+ to userspace via the normal thermal framework. This means that a wide
+ range of applications and GUI widgets can show this information to
+ the user or use this information for making decisions. For example,
+ the Intel Thermal Daemon can use this information to allow the user
+ to select his laptop to run without turning on the fans.
