powernv/iommu: disable IOMMU bypass with param iommu=nobypass
When IOMMU bypass is enabled, a PCI device can read and write memory that was not mapped by the driver without causing an EEH. That might cause memory corruption, for example. When we disable bypass, DMA reads and writes to addresses not mapped by the IOMMU will cause an EEH, allowing us to debug such issues.

More ACPI and power management updates for 3.19-rc1
- Fix a regression in leds-gpio introduced by a recent commit that inadvertently changed the name of one of the properties used by the driver (Fabio Estevam). - Fix a regression in the ACPI backlight driver introduced by a recent fix that missed one special case that had to be taken into account (Aaron Lu). - Drop the level of some new kernel messages from the ACPI core introduced by a recent commit to KERN_DEBUG which they should have used from the start and drop some other unuseful KERN_ERR messages printed by ACPI (Rafael J Wysocki). - Revert an incorrect commit modifying the cpupower tool (Prarit Bhargava). - Fix two regressions introduced by recent commits in the OPP library and clean up some existing minor issues in that code (Viresh Kumar). - Continue to replace CONFIG_PM_RUNTIME with CONFIG_PM throughout the tree (or drop it where that can be done) in order to make it possible to eliminate CONFIG_PM_RUNTIME (Rafael J Wysocki, Ulf Hansson, Ludovic Desroches). There will be one more "CONFIG_PM_RUNTIME removal" batch after this one, because some new uses of it have been introduced during the current merge window, but that should be sufficient to finally get rid of it. - Make the ACPI EC driver more robust against race conditions related to GPE handler installation failures (Lv Zheng). - Prevent the ACPI device PM core code from attempting to disable GPEs that it has not enabled which confuses ACPICA and makes it report errors unnecessarily (Rafael J Wysocki). - Add a "force" command line switch to the intel_pstate driver to make it possible to override the blacklisting of some systems in that driver if needed (Ethan Zhao). - Improve intel_pstate code documentation and add a MAINTAINERS entry for it (Kristen Carlson Accardi). - Make the ACPI fan driver create cooling device interfaces witn names that reflect the IDs of the ACPI device objects they are associated with, except for "generic" ACPI fans (PNP ID "PNP0C0B"). That's necessary for user space thermal management tools to be able to connect the fans with the parts of the system they are supposed to be cooling properly.

As the merge window is still open, and this code was not as complex
as I thought it might be. I'm pushing this in now. This will allow Thomas to debug his irq work for 3.20. This adds two new features: 1) Allow traceopoints to be enabled right after mm_init(). By passing in the trace_event= kernel command line parameter, tracepoints can be enabled at boot up. For debugging things like the initialization of interrupts, it is needed to have tracepoints enabled very early. People have asked about this before and this has been on my todo list. As it can be helpful for Thomas to debug his upcoming 3.20 IRQ work, I'm pushing this now. This way he can add tracepoints into the IRQ set up and have users enable them when things go wrong. 2) Have the tracepoints printed via printk() (the console) when they are triggered. If the irq code locks up or reboots the box, having the tracepoint output go into the kernel ring buffer is useless for debugging. But being able to add the tp_printk kernel command line option along with the trace_event= option will have these tracepoints printed as they occur, and that can be really useful for debugging early lock up or reboot problems. This code is not that intrusive and it passed all my tests. Thomas tried them out too and it works for his needs.

tracing: Add tp_printk cmdline to have tracepoints go to printk()
Add the kernel command line tp_printk option that will have tracepoints that are active sent to printk() as well as to the trace buffer. Passing "tp_printk" will activate this. To turn it off, the sysctl /proc/sys/kernel/tracepoint_printk can have '0' echoed into it. Note, this only works if the cmdline option is used. Echoing 1 into the sysctl file without the cmdline option will have no affect. Note, this is a dangerous option. Having high frequency tracepoints send their data to printk() can possibly cause a live lock. This is another reason why this is only active if the command line option is used.

mm/page_owner: keep track of page owners
This is the page owner tracking code which is introduced so far ago. It is resident on Andrew's tree, though, nobody tried to upstream so it remain as is. Our company uses this feature actively to debug memory leak or to find a memory hogger so I decide to upstream this feature. This functionality help us to know who allocates the page. When allocating a page, we store some information about allocation in extra memory. Later, if we need to know status of all pages, we can get and analyze it from this stored information. In previous version of this feature, extra memory is statically defined in struct page, but, in this version, extra memory is allocated outside of struct page. It enables us to turn on/off this feature at boottime without considerable memory waste. Although we already have tracepoint for tracing page allocation/free, using it to analyze page owner is rather complex. We need to enlarge the trace buffer for preventing overlapping until userspace program launched. And, launched program continually dump out the trace buffer for later analysis and it would change system behaviour with more possibility rather than just keeping it in memory, so bad for debug. Moreover, we can use page_owner feature further for various purposes. For example, we can use it for fragmentation statistics implemented in this patch. And, I also plan to implement some CMA failure debugging feature using this interface. I'd like to give the credit for all developers contributed this feature, but, it's not easy because I don't know exact history. Sorry about that.

mm/debug-pagealloc: make debug-pagealloc boottime configurable
Now, we have prepared to avoid using debug-pagealloc in boottime. So introduce new kernel-parameter to disable debug-pagealloc in boottime, and makes related functions to be disabled in this case. Only non-intuitive part is change of guard page functions. Because guard page is effective only if debug-pagealloc is enabled, turning off according to debug-pagealloc is reasonable thing to do.

ACPI and power management updates for 3.19-rc1
This time we have some more new material than we used to have during the last couple of development cycles. The most important part of it to me is the introduction of a unified interface for accessing device properties provided by platform firmware. It works with Device Trees and ACPI in a uniform way and drivers using it need not worry about where the properties come from as long as the platform firmware (either DT or ACPI) makes them available. It covers both devices and "bare" device node objects without struct device representation as that turns out to be necessary in some cases. This has been in the works for quite a few months (and development cycles) and has been approved by all of the relevant maintainers. On top of that, some drivers are switched over to the new interface (at25, leds-gpio, gpio_keys_polled) and some additional changes are made to the core GPIO subsystem to allow device drivers to manipulate GPIOs in the "canonical" way on platforms that provide GPIO information in their ACPI tables, but don't assign names to GPIO lines (in which case the driver needs to do that on the basis of what it knows about the device in question). That also has been approved by the GPIO core maintainers and the rfkill driver is now going to use it. Second is support for hardware P-states in the intel_pstate driver. It uses CPUID to detect whether or not the feature is supported by the processor in which case it will be enabled by default. However, it can be disabled entirely from the kernel command line if necessary. Next is support for a platform firmware interface based on ACPI operation regions used by the PMIC (Power Management Integrated Circuit) chips on the Intel Baytrail-T and Baytrail-T-CR platforms. That interface is used for manipulating power resources and for thermal management: sensor temperature reporting, trip point setting and so on. Also the ACPI core is now going to support the _DEP configuration information in a limited way. Basically, _DEP it supposed to reflect off-the-hierarchy dependencies between devices which may be very indirect, like when AML for one device accesses locations in an operation region handled by another device's driver (usually, the device depended on this way is a serial bus or GPIO controller). The support added this time is sufficient to make the ACPI battery driver work on Asus T100A, but it is general enough to be able to cover some other use cases in the future. Finally, we have a new cpufreq driver for the Loongson1B processor. In addition to the above, there are fixes and cleanups all over the place as usual and a traditional ACPICA update to a recent upstream release. As far as the fixes go, the ACPI LPSS (Low-power Subsystem) driver for Intel platforms should be able to handle power management of the DMA engine correctly, the cpufreq-dt driver should interact with the thermal subsystem in a better way and the ACPI backlight driver should handle some more corner cases, among other things. On top of the ACPICA update there are fixes for race conditions in the ACPICA's interrupt handling code which might lead to some random and strange looking failures on some systems. In the cleanups department the most visible part is the series of commits targeted at getting rid of the CONFIG_PM_RUNTIME configuration option. That was triggered by a discussion regarding the generic power domains code during which we realized that trying to support certain combinations of PM config options was painful and not really worth it, because nobody would use them in production anyway. For this reason, we decided to make CONFIG_PM_SLEEP select CONFIG_PM_RUNTIME and that lead to the conclusion that the latter became redundant and CONFIG_PM could be used instead of it. The material here makes that replacement in a major part of the tree, but there will be at least one more batch of that in the second part of the merge window. Specifics: - Support for retrieving device properties information from ACPI _DSD device configuration objects and a unified device properties interface for device drivers (and subsystems) on top of that. As stated above, this works with Device Trees and ACPI and allows device drivers to be written in a platform firmware (DT or ACPI) agnostic way. The at25, leds-gpio and gpio_keys_polled drivers are now going to use this new interface and the GPIO subsystem is additionally modified to allow device drivers to assign names to GPIO resources returned by ACPI _CRS objects (in case _DSD is not present or does not provide the expected data). The changes in this set are mostly from Mika Westerberg, Rafael J Wysocki, Aaron Lu, and Darren Hart with some fixes from others (Fabio Estevam, Geert Uytterhoeven). - Support for Hardware Managed Performance States (HWP) as described in Volume 3, section 14.4, of the Intel SDM in the intel_pstate driver. CPUID is used to detect whether or not the feature is supported by the processor. If supported, it will be enabled automatically unless the intel_pstate=no_hwp switch is present in the kernel command line. From Dirk Brandewie. - New Intel Broadwell-H ID for intel_pstate (Dirk Brandewie). - Support for firmware interface based on ACPI operation regions used by the PMIC chips on the Intel Baytrail-T and Baytrail-T-CR platforms for power resource control and thermal management (Aaron Lu). - Limited support for retrieving off-the-hierarchy dependencies between devices from ACPI _DEP device configuration objects and deferred probing support for the ACPI battery driver based on the _DEP information to make that driver work on Asus T100A (Lan Tianyu). - New cpufreq driver for the Loongson1B processor (Kelvin Cheung). - ACPICA update to upstream revision 20141107 which only affects tools (Bob Moore). - Fixes for race conditions in the ACPICA's interrupt handling code and in the ACPI code related to system suspend and resume (Lv Zheng and Rafael J Wysocki). - ACPI core fix for an RCU-related issue in the ioremap() regions management code that slowed down significantly after CPUs had been allowed to enter idle states even if they'd had RCU callbakcs queued and triggered some problems in certain proprietary graphics driver (and elsewhere). The fix replaces synchronize_rcu() in that code with synchronize_rcu_expedited() which makes the issue go away.

The most important part of it to me is the introduction of a unified interface for accessing device properties provided by platform firmware. It works with Device Trees and ACPI in a uniform way and drivers using it need not worry about where the properties come from as long as the platform firmware (either DT or ACPI) makes them available. It covers both devices and "bare" device node objects without struct device representation as that turns out to be necessary in some cases. This has been in the works for quite a few months (and development cycles) and has been approved by all of the relevant maintainers. On top of that, some drivers are switched over to the new interface (at25, leds-gpio, gpio_keys_polled) and some additional changes are made to the core GPIO subsystem to allow device drivers to manipulate GPIOs in the "canonical" way on platforms that provide GPIO information in their ACPI tables, but don't assign names to GPIO lines (in which case the driver needs to do that on the basis of what it knows about the device in question). That also has been approved by the GPIO core maintainers and the rfkill driver is now going to use it. Second is support for hardware P-states in the intel_pstate driver. It uses CPUID to detect whether or not the feature is supported by the processor in which case it will be enabled by default. However, it can be disabled entirely from the kernel command line if necessary. Next is support for a platform firmware interface based on ACPI operation regions used by the PMIC (Power Management Integrated Circuit) chips on the Intel Baytrail-T and Baytrail-T-CR platforms. That interface is used for manipulating power resources and for thermal management: sensor temperature reporting, trip point setting and so on. Also the ACPI core is now going to support the _DEP configuration information in a limited way. Basically, _DEP it supposed to reflect off-the-hierarchy dependencies between devices which may be very indirect, like when AML for one device accesses locations in an operation region handled by another device's driver (usually, the device depended on this way is a serial bus or GPIO controller). The support added this time is sufficient to make the ACPI battery driver work on Asus T100A, but it is general enough to be able to cover some other use cases in the future. Finally, we have a new cpufreq driver for the Loongson1B processor. In addition to the above, there are fixes and cleanups all over the place as usual and a traditional ACPICA update to a recent upstream release. As far as the fixes go, the ACPI LPSS (Low-power Subsystem) driver for Intel platforms should be able to handle power management of the DMA engine correctly, the cpufreq-dt driver should interact with the thermal subsystem in a better way and the ACPI backlight driver should handle some more corner cases, among other things. On top of the ACPICA update there are fixes for race conditions in the ACPICA's interrupt handling code which might lead to some random and strange looking failures on some systems. In the cleanups department the most visible part is the series of commits targeted at getting rid of the CONFIG_PM_RUNTIME configuration option. That was triggered by a discussion regarding the generic power domains code during which we realized that trying to support certain combinations of PM config options was painful and not really worth it, because nobody would use them in production anyway. For this reason, we decided to make CONFIG_PM_SLEEP select CONFIG_PM_RUNTIME and that lead to the conclusion that the latter became redundant and CONFIG_PM could be used instead of it. The material here makes that replacement in a major part of the tree, but there will be at least one more batch of that in the second part of the merge window. Specifics: - Support for retrieving device properties information from ACPI _DSD device configuration objects and a unified device properties interface for device drivers (and subsystems) on top of that. As stated above, this works with Device Trees and ACPI and allows device drivers to be written in a platform firmware (DT or ACPI) agnostic way. The at25, leds-gpio and gpio_keys_polled drivers are now going to use this new interface and the GPIO subsystem is additionally modified to allow device drivers to assign names to GPIO resources returned by ACPI _CRS objects (in case _DSD is not present or does not provide the expected data). The changes in this set are mostly from Mika Westerberg, Rafael J Wysocki, Aaron Lu, and Darren Hart with some fixes from others (Fabio Estevam, Geert Uytterhoeven). - Support for Hardware Managed Performance States (HWP) as described in Volume 3, section 14.4, of the Intel SDM in the intel_pstate driver. CPUID is used to detect whether or not the feature is supported by the processor. If supported, it will be enabled automatically unless the intel_pstate=no_hwp switch is present in the kernel command line. From Dirk Brandewie. - New Intel Broadwell-H ID for intel_pstate (Dirk Brandewie). - Support for firmware interface based on ACPI operation regions used by the PMIC chips on the Intel Baytrail-T and Baytrail-T-CR platforms for power resource control and thermal management (Aaron Lu). - Limited support for retrieving off-the-hierarchy dependencies between devices from ACPI _DEP device configuration objects and deferred probing support for the ACPI battery driver based on the _DEP information to make that driver work on Asus T100A (Lan Tianyu). - New cpufreq driver for the Loongson1B processor (Kelvin Cheung). - ACPICA update to upstream revision 20141107 which only affects tools (Bob Moore). - Fixes for race conditions in the ACPICA's interrupt handling code and in the ACPI code related to system suspend and resume (Lv Zheng and Rafael J Wysocki). - ACPI core fix for an RCU-related issue in the ioremap() regions management code that slowed down significantly after CPUs had been allowed to enter idle states even if they'd had RCU callbakcs queued and triggered some problems in certain proprietary graphics driver (and elsewhere). The fix replaces synchronize_rcu() in that code with synchronize_rcu_expedited() which makes the issue go away. From Konstantin Khlebnikov. - ACPI LPSS (Low-Power Subsystem) driver fix to handle power management of the DMA engine included into the LPSS correctly. The problem is that the DMA engine doesn't have ACPI PM support of its own and it simply is turned off when the last LPSS device having ACPI PM support goes into D3cold.

kernel: add panic_on_warn
There have been several times where I have had to rebuild a kernel to cause a panic when hitting a WARN() in the code in order to get a crash dump from a system. Sometimes this is easy to do, other times (such as in the case of a remote admin) it is not trivial to send new images to the user. A much easier method would be a switch to change the WARN() over to a panic. This makes debugging easier in that I can now test the actual image the WARN() was seen on and I do not have to engage in remote debugging. This patch adds a panic_on_warn kernel parameter and /proc/sys/kernel/panic_on_warn calls panic() in the warn_slowpath_common() path. The function will still print out the location of the warning. An example of the panic_on_warn output: The first line below is from the WARN_ON() to output the WARN_ON()'s location. After that the panic() output is displayed.

intel_pstate: Add support for HWP
Add support of Hardware Managed Performance States (HWP) described in Volume 3 section 14.4 of the SDM. With HWP enbaled intel_pstate will no longer be responsible for selecting P states for the processor. intel_pstate will continue to register to the cpufreq core as the scaling driver for CPUs implementing HWP. In HWP mode intel_pstate provides three functions reporting frequency to the cpufreq core, support for the set_policy() interface from the core and maintaining the intel_pstate sysfs interface in /sys/devices/system/cpu/intel_pstate. User preferences expressed via the set_policy() interface or the sysfs interface are forwared to the CPU via the HWP MSR interface.

rcu: Unify boost and kthread priorities
Rename CONFIG_RCU_BOOST_PRIO to CONFIG_RCU_KTHREAD_PRIO and use this value for both the per-CPU kthreads (rcuc/N) and the rcu boosting threads (rcub/n). Also, create the module_parameter rcutree.kthread_prio to be used on the kernel command line at boot to set a new value (rcutree.kthread_prio=N).

powerpc/numa: Add ability to disable and debug topology updates
We have hit a few customer issues with the topology update code (VPHN and PRRN). It would be nice to be able to debug the notifications coming from the hypervisor in both cases to the LPAR, as well as to disable responding to the notifications at boot-time, to narrow down the source of the problems. Add a basic level of such functionality, similar to the numa= command-line parameter. We already have a toggle in /proc/powerpc/topology_updates that allows run-time enabling/disabling, so the updates can be started at run-time if desired. But the bugs we've run into have occured during boot or very shortly after coming to login, and have resulted in a broken NUMA topology.

Input: i8042 - disable active multiplexing by default
Active multiplexing is a nice feature as it allows several pointing devices (such as touchpad and external mouse) use their native protocols at the same time. Unfortunately many manufacturers do not implement the feature properly even though they advertise it. The problematic implementations are never fixed, since Windows by default does not use this mode, and move from one BIOS/model of laptop to another. When active multiplexing is broken turning it on usually results in touchpad, keyboard, or both unresponsive. With PS/2 usage on decline (most of PS/2 devices in use nowadays are internal laptop touchpads), I expect number of users who have laptops with working MUX implementation, docking stations with external PS/2 ports, and who are still using external PS/2 mice, to be rather small. Let's flip the default to be OFF and allow activating it through i8042.nomux=0 kernel option. We'll also keep DMI table where we can record known good models.

ACPI and power management updates for 3.18-rc1
- Rework the handling of wakeup IRQs by the IRQ core such that all of them will be switched over to "wakeup" mode in suspend_device_irqs() and in that mode the first interrupt will abort system suspend in progress or wake up the system if already in suspend-to-idle (or equivalent) without executing any interrupt handlers. Among other things that eliminates the wakeup-related motivation to use the IRQF_NO_SUSPEND interrupt flag with interrupts which don't really need it and should not use it (Thomas Gleixner and Rafael J Wysocki). - Switch over ACPI to handling wakeup interrupts with the help of the new mechanism introduced by the above IRQ core rework (Rafael J Wysocki). - Rework the core generic PM domains code to eliminate code that's not used, add DT support and add a generic mechanism by which devices can be added to PM domains automatically during enumeration (Ulf Hansson, Geert Uytterhoeven and Tomasz Figa). - Add debugfs-based mechanics for debugging generic PM domains (Maciej Matraszek). - ACPICA update to upstream version 20140828. Included are updates related to the SRAT and GTDT tables and the _PSx methods are in the METHOD_NAME list now (Bob Moore and Hanjun Guo). - Add _OSI("Darwin") support to the ACPI core (unfortunately, that can't really be done in a straightforward way) to prevent Thunderbolt from being turned off on Apple systems after boot (or after resume from system suspend) and rework the ACPI Smart Battery Subsystem (SBS) driver to work correctly with Apple platforms (Matthew Garrett and Andreas Noever). - ACPI LPSS (Low-Power Subsystem) driver update cleaning up the code, adding support for 133MHz I2C source clock on Intel Baytrail to it and making it avoid using UART RTS override with Auto Flow Control (Heikki Krogerus). - ACPI backlight updates removing the video_set_use_native_backlight quirk which is not necessary any more, making the code check the list of output devices returned by the _DOD method to avoid creating acpi_video interfaces that won't work and adding a quirk for Lenovo Ideapad Z570 (Hans de Goede, Aaron Lu and Stepan Bujnak). - New Win8 ACPI OSI quirks for some Dell laptops (Edward Lin). - Assorted ACPI code cleanups (Fabian Frederick, Rasmus Villemoes, Sudip Mukherjee, Yijing Wang, and Zhang Rui). - cpufreq core updates and cleanups (Viresh Kumar, Preeti U Murthy, Rasmus Villemoes). - cpufreq driver updates: cpufreq-cpu0/cpufreq-dt (driver name change among other things), ppc-corenet, powernv (Viresh Kumar, Preeti U Murthy, Shilpasri G Bhat, Lucas Stach). - cpuidle support for DT-based idle states infrastructure, new ARM64 cpuidle driver, cpuidle core cleanups (Lorenzo Pieralisi, Rasmus Villemoes). - ARM big.LITTLE cpuidle driver updates: support for DT-based initialization and Exynos5800 compatible string (Lorenzo Pieralisi, Kevin Hilman). - Rework of the test_suspend kernel command line argument and a new trace event for console resume (Srinivas Pandruvada, Todd E Brandt). - Second attempt to optimize swsusp_free() (hibernation core) to make it avoid going through all PFNs which may be way too slow on some systems (Joerg Roedel). - devfreq updates (Paul Bolle, Punit Agrawal, Ãrjan Eide). - rockchip-io Adaptive Voltage Scaling (AVS) driver and AVS entry update in MAINTAINERS (Heiko Stübner, Kevin Hilman). - PM core fix related to clock management (Geert Uytterhoeven). - PM core's sysfs code cleanup (Johannes Berg). / -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.22 (GNU/Linux) iQIcBAABCAAGBQJUNbJoAAoJEILEb/54YlRxRp8QAJyGIPdx+f03oBir+7vvEwhY svxd+V9xXK0UgWNGkCvlMk/1RIVy0qqtXliUrDaE+9tcHACA9+iAxMmNmDsjLOiO gpazuz5kgeznrmp1eNwQnYTt+OCReQIcyCsj4q4fNo9bbETTyr2bRz226LEuZekC TAiKdphYoOszFBgTVg5gfu+lqjHyXjgXPnwMTlRYn1y4YL2adDIgxj9cFedykTTW Eu593TY2dH6ovERJ6q3qxZbRuWuxtww95J07b3t2/2Eb3e/R/zlX0/XJ/C88f/m2 DkqngbOYqCdw+zJeN6k8631foyfUwAcTd0sJ1+5nsm5H4NE5NqObjbxOk5/yNht6 HgvgISGHWLerEw+A/Dk6o0oZOtR1G/TAQ5qQk5nUfKT/sSoU+9/USsXtWhXwZCia XccnJgW6ZtPrJJP3zDnkrxe3gndmLic11QXArw2IhWTsq0sZlAyMgtauBXLdDiQa H/AMiYrUNmIABef1cirBLTtgXN4Zbsai9vIrxMmV7OgBrclrh52NTjzr05P5Hnl2 fRK56mb6mP59LymI7n8fyXL8tHnbNwFvTaxuvrZmzcYbzL0l9DuPocJrrTHRSfhm GFfzfvLj0R66ZM4PthRSwz4H2v1FnlRcCkj5k/QjtBPlyzxtOnJveqve5umbrnb9 T5mRmlAs4iYwLuKCVVNT =sIv/ -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- Merge tag 'pm+acpi-3.18-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rafael/linux-pm Pull ACPI and power management updates from Rafael Wysocki: "Features-wise, to me the most important this time is a rework of wakeup interrupts handling in the core that makes them work consistently across all of the available sleep states, including suspend-to-idle. Many thanks to Thomas Gleixner for his help with this work. Second is an update of the generic PM domains code that has been in need of some care for quite a while. Unused code is being removed, DT support is being added and domains are now going to be attached to devices in bus type code in analogy with the ACPI PM domain. The majority of work here was done by Ulf Hansson who also has been the most active developer this time. Apart from this we have a traditional ACPICA update, this time to upstream version 20140828 and a few ACPI wakeup interrupts handling patches on top of the general rework mentioned above. There also are several cpufreq commits including renaming the cpufreq-cpu0 driver to cpufreq-dt, as this is what implements generic DT-based cpufreq support, and a new DT-based idle states infrastructure for cpuidle. In addition to that, the ACPI LPSS driver is updated, ACPI support for Apple machines is improved, a few bugs are fixed and a few cleanups are made all over. Finally, the Adaptive Voltage Scaling (AVS) subsystem now has a tree maintained by Kevin Hilman that will be merged through the PM tree. Numbers-wise, the generic PM domains update takes the lead this time with 32 non-merge commits, second is cpufreq (15 commits) and the 3rd place goes to the wakeup interrupts handling rework (13 commits). Specifics: - Rework the handling of wakeup IRQs by the IRQ core such that all of them will be switched over to "wakeup" mode in suspend_device_irqs() and in that mode the first interrupt will abort system suspend in progress or wake up the system if already in suspend-to-idle (or equivalent) without executing any interrupt handlers.

Included are updates related to the SRAT and GTDT tables and the _PSx methods are in the METHOD_NAME list now (Bob Moore and Hanjun Guo). - Add _OSI("Darwin") support to the ACPI core (unfortunately, that can't really be done in a straightforward way) to prevent Thunderbolt from being turned off on Apple systems after boot (or after resume from system suspend) and rework the ACPI Smart Battery Subsystem (SBS) driver to work correctly with Apple platforms (Matthew Garrett and Andreas Noever). - ACPI LPSS (Low-Power Subsystem) driver update cleaning up the code, adding support for 133MHz I2C source clock on Intel Baytrail to it and making it avoid using UART RTS override with Auto Flow Control (Heikki Krogerus). - ACPI backlight updates removing the video_set_use_native_backlight quirk which is not necessary any more, making the code check the list of output devices returned by the _DOD method to avoid creating acpi_video interfaces that won't work and adding a quirk for Lenovo Ideapad Z570 (Hans de Goede, Aaron Lu and Stepan Bujnak) - New Win8 ACPI OSI quirks for some Dell laptops (Edward Lin) - Assorted ACPI code cleanups (Fabian Frederick, Rasmus Villemoes, Sudip Mukherjee, Yijing Wang, and Zhang Rui) - cpufreq core updates and cleanups (Viresh Kumar, Preeti U Murthy, Rasmus Villemoes) - cpufreq driver updates: cpufreq-cpu0/cpufreq-dt (driver name change among other things), ppc-corenet, powernv (Viresh Kumar, Preeti U Murthy, Shilpasri G Bhat, Lucas Stach) - cpuidle support for DT-based idle states infrastructure, new ARM64 cpuidle driver, cpuidle core cleanups (Lorenzo Pieralisi, Rasmus Villemoes) - ARM big.LITTLE cpuidle driver updates: support for DT-based initialization and Exynos5800 compatible string (Lorenzo Pieralisi, Kevin Hilman) - Rework of the test_suspend kernel command line argument and a new trace event for console resume (Srinivas Pandruvada, Todd E Brandt) - Second attempt to optimize swsusp_free() (hibernation core) to make it avoid going through all PFNs which may be way too slow on some systems (Joerg Roedel) - devfreq updates (Paul Bolle, Punit Agrawal, Ãrjan Eide). - rockchip-io Adaptive Voltage Scaling (AVS) driver and AVS entry update in MAINTAINERS (Heiko Stübner, Kevin Hilman) - PM core fix related to clock management (Geert Uytterhoeven) - PM core's sysfs code cleanup (Johannes Berg)" * tag 'pm+acpi-3.18-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rafael/linux-pm: (105 commits) ACPI / fan: printk replacement PM / clk: Fix crash in clocks management code if !CONFIG_PM_RUNTIME PM / Domains: Rename cpu_data to cpuidle_data cpufreq: cpufreq-dt: fix potential double put of cpu OF node cpufreq: cpu0: rename driver and internals to 'cpufreq_dt' PM / hibernate: Iterate over set bits instead of PFNs in swsusp_free() cpufreq: ppc-corenet: remove duplicate update of cpu_data ACPI / sleep: Rework the handling of ACPI GPE wakeup from suspend-to-idle PM / sleep: Rename platform suspend/resume functions in suspend.c PM / sleep: Export dpm_suspend_late/noirq() and dpm_resume_early/noirq() ACPICA: Introduce acpi_enable_all_wakeup_gpes() ACPICA: Clear all non-wakeup GPEs in acpi_hw_enable_wakeup_gpe_block() ACPI / video: check _DOD list when creating backlight devices PM / Domains: Move dev_pm_domain_attach|detach() to pm_domain.h cpufreq: Replace strnicmp with strncasecmp cpufreq: powernv: Set the cpus to nominal frequency during reboot/kexec cpufreq: powernv: Set the pstate of the last hotplugged out cpu in policy->cpus to minimum cpufreq: Allow stop CPU callback to be used by all cpufreq drivers PM / devfreq: exynos: Enable building exynos PPMU as module PM / devfreq: Export helper functions for drivers ... |

efi: Add kernel param efi=noruntime
noefi kernel param means actually disabling efi runtime, Per suggestion from Leif Lindholm efi=noruntime should be better. But since noefi is already used in X86 thus just adding another param efi=noruntime for same purpose.

efi: Add efi= parameter parsing to the EFI boot stub
We need a way to customize the behaviour of the EFI boot stub, in
particular, we need a way to disable the "chunking" workaround, used
when reading files from the EFI System Partition.
One of my machines doesn't cope well when reading files in 1MB chunks to
a buffer above the 4GB mark - it appears that the "chunking" bug
workaround triggers another firmware bug. This was only discovered with
commit
