    some related code cleanups (Rafael Wysocki).
 
  - Modify the device enumeration code to turn off all of the unused
    ACPI power resources at the end (Rafael Wysocki).
 
  - Change the ACPI power resources handling code to turn off unused
    ACPI power resources without checking their status which should
    not be necessary by the spec (Rafael Wysocki).

    CONFIG_ACPI_CPPC_LIB is not set (Rafael Wysocki).

  - Use kobj_attribute as callback argument instead of a local struct
    type in the CPPC linrary code (Nathan Chancellor).
 
  - Drop unneeded initializatio of a static variable from the ACPI
    processor driver (Tian Tao).

    code (Colin Ian King).

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
