b08221c40f ACPI: PNP: compare the string length in the matching_id()
Recently we met a touchscreen problem on some Thinkpad machines, the
touchscreen driver (i2c-hid) is not loaded and the touchscreen can't
work.

An i2c ACPI device with the name WACF2200 is defined in the BIOS, with
the current rule in matching_id(), this device will be regarded as
a PNP device since there is WACFXXX in the acpi_pnp_device_ids[] and
this PNP device is attached to the acpi device as the 1st
physical_node, this will make the i2c bus match fail when i2c bus
calls acpi_companion_match() to match the acpi_id_table in the i2c-hid
driver.

WACF2200 is an i2c device instead of a PNP device, after adding the
string length comparing, the matching_id() will return false when
matching WACF2200 and WACFXXX, and it is reasonable to compare the
string length when matching two IDs.

One wouldn't expect a "match" function modify the string it searches
for, and indeed the only instance of the struct
acpi_scan_handler::match callback, acpi_pnp_match, can easily be
changed. While there, update its helper matching_id().

This is also preparation for constifying struct acpi_hardware_id::id.

0fbcf4af7c ipmi: Convert the IPMI SI ACPI handling to a platform device
The IPMI SI driver was using direct PNP, but that was not really
ideal because the IPMI device is a platform device.  There was
some special handling in the acpi_pnp.c code for making this work,
but that was breaking ACPI handling for the IPMI SSIF driver.

So without this patch there were significant issues getting the
SSIF driver to work with ACPI.

So use a platform device for ACPI detection and remove the
entry from acpi_pnp.c.

This way this device can be used with irtty-sir -
at least on Toshiba Satellite A20-S103 it is not configured by default

This device has actually its own driver (ali-ircc),

622532bb2f ACPI / PNP: add two IDs to list for PNPACPI device enumeration
Commit eec15edbb0 (ACPI / PNP: use device ID list for PNPACPI device
enumeration) changed the way how ACPI devices are enumerated and when
they are added to the PNP bus.

However, it broke the sound card support on (at least) a vintage
IBM ThinkPad 600E: with said commit applied, two of the necessary
"CSC01xx" devices are not added to the PNP bus and hence can not be
found during the initialization of the "snd-cs4236" module.  As a
consequence, loading "snd-cs4236" causes null pointer exceptions.
The attached patch fixes the problem end re-enables sound on the
IBM ThinkPad 600E.

b528392669 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).

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).

042e1c7916 Input: soc_button_array - convert to platform bus
ACPI device enumeration mechanism changed a lot since 3.16-rc1.
ACPI device objects with _HID will be enumerated to platform bus by default.
For the existing PNP drivers that probe the PNPACPI devices, the device ids
are listed explicitly in drivers/acpi/acpi_pnp.c.
But ACPI folks will continue their effort on shrinking this id list by
converting the PNP drivers to platform drivers, for the devices that don't
belong to PNP bus in nature.

Fujitsu backlight and hotkey devices have ACPI drivers.

The PNP MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE in fujitsu-laptop driver is just used as an
indicator for module autoloading, but this is wrong because what we

ACPI devices.

Thus remove those IDs from ACPI PNP scan handler list as we don't
have a PNP driver for them, and convert the fujitsu-laptop PNP
MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE to ACPI MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE.

This results in a regression in 3.16-rc1 that soc_button_array

01cd4bac8c ACPI / scan: drop unsupported serial IDs from PNP ACPI scan handler ID list
The "serial" PNP driver supports some "unknown" PNP modems
(PNPCXXX/PNPDXXX) by matching magic strings in the PNP device name
or the PNP device card name.

ACPI enumerated PNP devices neither are PNP cards, nor have those
magic strings in device names, so this mechamism never actually works
for ACPI enumerated PNPCXXX/PNPDXXX devices.

Consequently, it is safe to remove those two IDs from the PNP ACPI scan
handler's device ID list.

eec15edbb0 ACPI / PNP: use device ID list for PNPACPI device enumeration
ACPI can be used to enumerate PNP devices, but the code does not
handle this in the right way currently.  Namely, if an ACPI device
object
 1. Has a _CRS method,
 2. Has an identification of
    "three capital characters followed by four hex digits",
 3. Is not in the excluded IDs list,
it will be enumerated to PNP bus (that is, a PNP device object will
be create for it).  This means that, actually, the PNP bus type is
used as the default bus type for enumerating _HID devices in ACPI.

However, more and more _HID devices need to be enumerated to the
platform bus instead (that is, platform device objects need to be
created for them).  As a result, the device ID list in acpi_platform.c
is used to enforce creating platform device objects rather than PNP
device objects for matching devices.  That list has been continuously
growing recently, unfortunately, and it is pretty much guaranteed to
grow even more in the future.

To address that problem it is better to enumerate _HID devices
as platform devices by default.  To this end, change the way of
enumerating PNP devices by adding a PNP ACPI scan handler that
will use a device ID list to create PNP devices for the ACPI
device objects whose device IDs are present in that list.

The initial device ID list in the PNP ACPI scan handler contains
all of the pnp_device_id strings from all the existing PNP drivers,
so this change should be transparent to the PNP core and all of the
PNP drivers.  Still, in the future it should be possible to reduce
its size by converting PNP drivers that need not be PNP for any
technical reasons into platform drivers.
