Greg,
The following 7 patches are some major updates that has been going on in the Texas Instrument's shared transport driver. These contain few new requirements and some cleanup patches.
The major 2 changes are the first 2 patches.
1. The change from protocol based registration to packet/channel based registration has been conceptually ACKed by Gustavo (Bluetooth Maintainer). With this TI-ST now no longer refers to bluetooth headers which was a concern previously.
2. The 2nd major change is from rfkill based communication to normal sysfs entry based communication. This has been conceptually ACKed by Samuel Ortiz (MFD Maintainer). Previously when the line discipline driver wanted the UART to be opened and ldisc to be installed, it ab-used the rfkill device node to notify the user-space daemon, Now it notifies using simpler sysfs entries & making use of sysfs_notify. This also allows the UART specifics to be shared with user-space.
Other patches include fixing left over error codes, correcting few dbug logs, fixes for bugs found during stress testing, firmware change & cleanup.
