Rafael J. Wysocki 5847d2d2ef Merge branches 'acpi-ec' and 'acpi-processor'
Merge ACPI EC driver updates and ACPI processor driver updates for
5.17-rc1:

 - Rework flushing of EC work while suspended to idle and clean up
   the handling of events in the ACPI EC driver (Rafael Wysocki).

 - Prohibit ec_sys module parameter write_support from being used
   when the system is locked down (Hans de Goede).

 - Make the ACPI processor thermal driver use cpufreq_cpu_get() to
   check for presence of cpufreq policy (Manfred Spraul).

 - Avoid unnecessary CPU cache flushing in the ACPI processor idle
   driver (Kirill A. Shutemov).

 - Replace kernel.h with the necessary inclusions in the ACPI
   processor driver (Andy Shevchenko).

 - Use swap() instead of open coding it in the ACPI processor idle
   driver (Guo Zhengkui).

* acpi-ec:
  ACPI: EC: Mark the ec_sys write_support param as module_param_hw()
  ACPI: EC: Relocate acpi_ec_create_query() and drop acpi_ec_delete_query()
  ACPI: EC: Make the event work state machine visible
  ACPI: EC: Avoid queuing unnecessary work in acpi_ec_submit_event()
  ACPI: EC: Rename three functions
  ACPI: EC: Simplify locking in acpi_ec_event_handler()
  ACPI: EC: Rearrange the loop in acpi_ec_event_handler()
  ACPI: EC: Fold acpi_ec_check_event() into acpi_ec_event_handler()
  ACPI: EC: Pass one argument to acpi_ec_query()
  ACPI: EC: Call advance_transaction() from acpi_ec_dispatch_gpe()
  ACPI: EC: Rework flushing of EC work while suspended to idle

* acpi-processor:
  ACPI: processor: thermal: avoid cpufreq_get_policy()
  ACPI: processor: idle: Only flush cache on entering C3
  ACPI: processor idle: Use swap() instead of open coding it
  ACPI: processor: Replace kernel.h with the necessary inclusions

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.
