Build results:
	total: 147 pass: 147 fail: 0
Qemu test results:
	total: 104 pass: 100 fail: 4
Failed tests:
	arm:akita:pxa_defconfig
	arm:borzoi:pxa_defconfig
	arm:spitz:pxa_defconfig
	arm:terrier:pxa_defconfig

Details are available at http://kerneltests.org/builders.

4.5 will require two patches from mainline to fix the known problems.

3c2e2266a5bd ("hwmon: (max1111) Return -ENODEV from max1111_read_channel if not instantiated")
c4e5ffb6f224 ("gpio: pxa: fix legacy non pinctrl aware builds")

The first fixes the direct failures reported above, the second fixes
a traceback seen as result of failed gpio pin initialization. The
first patch is tagged Cc: stable, the second has a Fixes: tag,
so both should already be in your queue for 4.5.

Thanks,
Guenter
