Char / Misc and documentation fixes for 7.2-rc7

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.
