Linus Torvalds 118d6e9829 ACPI updates for 5.8-rc1
- Update the ACPICA code in the kernel to upstream revision
    20200430:
 
    * Move acpi_gbl_next_cmd_num definition (Erik Kaneda).
 
    * Ignore AE_ALREADY_EXISTS status in the disassembler when parsing
      create operators (Erik Kaneda).
 
    * Add status checks to the dispatcher (Erik Kaneda).
 
    * Fix required parameters for _NIG and _NIH (Erik Kaneda).
 
    * Make acpi_protocol_lengths static (Yue Haibing).
 
  - Fix ACPI table reference counting errors in several places, mostly
    in error code paths (Hanjun Guo).
 
  - Extend the Generic Event Device (GED) driver to support _Exx and
    _Lxx handler methods (Ard Biesheuvel).
 
  - Add new acpi_evaluate_reg() helper and modify the ACPI PCI hotplug
    code to use it (Hans de Goede).
 
  - Add new DPTF battery participant driver and make the DPFT power
    participant driver create more sysfs device attributes (Srinivas
    Pandruvada).
 
  - Improve the handling of memory failures in APEI (James Morse).
 
  - Add new blacklist entry for Acer TravelMate 5735Z to the backlight
    driver (Paul Menzel).
 
  - Add i2c address for thermal control to the PMIC driver (Mauro
    Carvalho Chehab).
 
  - Allow the ACPI processor idle driver to work on platforms with
    only one ACPI C-state present (Zhang Rui).
 
  - Fix kobject reference count leaks in error code paths in two
    places (Qiushi Wu).
 
  - Delete unused proc filename macros and make some symbols static
    (Pascal Terjan, Zheng Zengkai, Zou Wei).
