This pull request contains Broadcom ARM-based SoC changes for 4.10, 
please pull
the following:

- Rafal adds back the abort handler hook on BCM5301x which is required 
to silence
  errors forwared from the PCIe controller that cannot be silenced at 
the PCIe RC level
Pulled into next/soc.

It's unclear to me whether we want this to be backported to stable 
kernels,
can you clarify?
It took me/us so much time to get an agreement on this patch I totally 
forgot
about backporting it to stable.

To be clear it indeed fixes a regression. Commit 937b12306ea79 ("ARM: 
BCM5301X:
remove workaround imprecise abort fault handler") went into 4.5, so this 
one
could be backported to 4.5+.

As this has been already pulled, I think I'll wait for it to appear in 
Linus's
tree and just e-mail stable guys manually (unless someone objects). 
Thanks for
bringing my attention to this.
Ok, sounds good. Thanks!
