ACPI Battery device receives notifications from firmware frequently,
and most of these notifications are some general events, like battery
remaining capacity change, etc, which should not wake the system up
if the system is in suspend/hibernate state.
This causes a problem that the system wakes up from suspend to freeze
shortly, because there is an ACPI battery notification every 10 seconds.
Fix the problem in this patch by registering ACPI battery device'
own wakeup source, and waking up the system only when the battery remaining
capacity is critical low, or lower than the alarm capacity set via _BTP.

POWER_SUPPLY_CAPACITY_LEVEL_FULL,

To seed up suspend and resume of devices included into Intel SoCs
handled by the ACPI LPSS driver during system suspend, make
acpi_lpss_create_device() call device_enable_async_suspend() for
every device created by it.
This requires acpi_create_platform_device() to be modified to return
a pointer to struct platform_device instead of an int. As a result,
acpi_create_platform_device() cannot be pointed to by the .attach
pointer in platform_handler directly any more, so a simple wrapper
around it is necessary for this purpose. That, in turn, allows the
second unused argument of acpi_create_platform_device() to be
dropped, which is an improvement.

Most time of battery resume callback is spent on executing AML code
_BTP, _BIF and _BIF to get battery info, status and set alarm. These
AML methods may access EC operation regions several times and consumes
time.
These operations are not necessary during devices resume and can run
during POST_SUSPEND/HIBERNATION event when all processes are thawed.
This also can avoid removing and adding battery sysfs nodes every system
resume even if the battery unit is not actually changed. The original code
updates sysfs nodes without check and this seems not reasonable.

In acpi_processor_get_info(), ACPI processor info is initialized including
ID, namely CPU index. Currently, on a UP system running an SMP kerenl with
no LAPIC in the MADT, cpu0_initialized is checked to decide whether or not
the CPU has been initialized.
However, this check may not be sufficient for kdump kernels. Most of time
only 1 CPU is supported because of known problems in kdump kernels. So say
the multiple CPUs are present in the boot kernel and a crash happens on
one specific CPU, say CPU2. Then it jumps into the kdump kernel with
"nr_cpus=1" in the command line. In this situation, the kdump kernel
will reuse the ACPI resources from the crashed kernel directly. That
means all LAPIC instances are enabled in the MADT while only one CPU is
in use. In the kdump kernel, x86_cpu_to_apicid contains the correct APIC
ID and it's related to the CPU ID. If cpu0_initialized is checked only, 0
will be used as the CPU index instead of that APIC ID, which is not
correct.
In addition to checking cpu0_initialized, check acpi_lapic. If acpi_lapic
is 0, then no LAPIC is available from the MADT and the system should be
treated as a UP one without a LAPIC (that is, assign 0 to the CPU index).
Otherwise, use the original (valid) CPU index.

Address a regression caused by commit ad332c8a45:
(ACPI / EC: Clear stale EC events on Samsung systems)
After the earlier patch, there was found to be a race condition on some
earlier Samsung systems (N150/N210/N220). The function acpi_ec_clear was
sometimes discarding a new EC event before its GPE was triggered by the
system. In the case of these systems, this meant that the "lid open"
event was not registered on resume if that was the cause of the wake,
leading to problems when attempting to close the lid to suspend again.
After testing on a number of Samsung systems, both those affected by the
previous EC bug and those affected by the race condition, it seemed that
the best course of action was to process rather than discard the events.
On Samsung systems which accumulate stale EC events, there does not seem
to be any adverse side-effects of running the associated _Q methods.
This patch adds an argument to the static function acpi_ec_sync_query so
that it may be used within the acpi_ec_clear loop in place of
acpi_ec_query_unlocked which was used previously.
With thanks to Stefan Biereigel for reporting the issue, and for all the
people who helped test the new patch on affected systems.

The purpose of the acpi_pad driver is to implement the "processor power
aggregator" device as described in the ACPI 4.0 spec section 8.5. It
takes requests from the BIOS (via ACPI) to put a specified number of
CPUs into idle, in order to save power, until further notice.
It does this by creating high-priority threads that try to keep the CPUs
in a high C-state (using the monitor/mwait CPU instructions). The
mwait() call is in a loop that checks periodically if the thread should
end and a few other things.
It was discovered through testing that the power_saving threads were
causing the system to consume more power than the system was consuming
before the threads were created. A counter in the main loop of
power_saving_thread() revealed that it was spinning. The mwait()
instruction was not keeping the CPU in a high C state very much if at
all.
Here is a simplification of the loop in function power_saving_thread() in
drivers/acpi/acpi_pad.c
while (!kthread_should_stop()) {
:
try_to_freeze()
:
while (!need_resched()) {
:
if (!need_resched())
__mwait(power_saving_mwait_eax, 1);
:
if (jiffies > expire_time) {
do_sleep = 1;
break;
}
}
}
If need_resched() returns true, then mwait() is not called. It was
returning true because of things like timer interrupts, as in the
following sequence.
hrtimer_interrupt->__run_hrtimer->tick_sched_timer-> update_process_times->
rcu_check_callbacks->rcu_pending->__rcu_pending->set_need_resched
Kernels 3.5.0-rc2+ do not exhibit this problem, because a patch to
try_to_freeze() in include/linux/freezer.h introduces a call to
might_sleep(), which ultimately calls schedule() to clear the reschedule
flag and allows the the loop to execute the call to mwait().
However, the changes to try_to_freeze are unrelated to acpi_pad, and it
does not seem like a good idea to rely on an unrelated patch in a
function that could later be changed and reintroduce this bug.
Therefore, it seems better to make an explicit call to schedule() in the
outer loop when the need_resched flag is set.

* acpi-hotplug:
ACPI / notify: Do not block unknown type notifications in root handler
Commit 1a699476e2 "ACPI / hotplug / PCI: Hotplug notifications from
acpi_bus_notify()" changed the root notify handler, acpi_bus_notify(),
to block unknown type norifications, but it overlooked the fact that
they might be propagated to drivers via the ->notify() callback.
Fix the problem by allowing drivers to receive unknown type
notifications via ->notify() as before.
