400e4b2091 x86/fpu: Rename xsave.header::xstate_bv to 'xfeatures'
'xsave.header::xstate_bv' is a misnomer - what does 'bv' stand for?

It probably comes from the 'XGETBV' instruction name, but I could
not find in the Intel documentation where that abbreviation comes
from. It could mean 'bit vector' - or something else?

But how about - instead of guessing about a weird name - we named
the field in an obvious and descriptive way that tells us exactly
what it does?

So rename it to 'xfeatures', which is a bitmask of the
xfeatures that are fpstate_active in that context structure.

Eyesore like:

           fpu->state->xsave.xsave_hdr.xstate_bv |= XSTATE_FP;

is now much more readable:

           fpu->state->xsave.header.xfeatures |= XSTATE_FP;

Which form is not just infinitely more readable, but is also
shorter as well.

3a54450b5e x86/fpu: Rename 'xsave_hdr' to 'header'
Code like:

           fpu->state->xsave.xsave_hdr.xstate_bv |= XSTATE_FP;

is an eyesore, because not only is the words 'xsave' and 'state'
are repeated twice times (!), but also because of the 'hdr' and 'bv'
abbreviations that are pretty meaningless at a first glance.

Start cleaning this up by renaming 'xsave_hdr' to 'header'.

34a984f7b0 Merge branch 'x86-pmem-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip
Pull PMEM driver from Ingo Molnar:
 "This is the initial support for the pmem block device driver:
  persistent non-volatile memory space mapped into the system's physical
  memory space as large physical memory regions.

  The driver is based on Intel code, written by Ross Zwisler, with fixes
  by Boaz Harrosh, integrated with x86 e820 memory resource management
  and tidied up by Christoph Hellwig.

  Note that there were two other separate pmem driver submissions to
  lkml: but apparently all parties (Ross Zwisler, Boaz Harrosh) are
  reasonably happy with this initial version.

  This version enables minimal support that enables persistent memory
  devices out in the wild to work as block devices, identified through a
  magic (non-standard) e820 flag and auto-discovered if
  CONFIG_X86_PMEM_LEGACY=y, or added explicitly through manipulating the
  memory maps via the "memmap=..." boot option with the new, special '!'
  modifier character.

  Limitations: this is a regular block device, and since the pmem areas
  are not struct page backed, they are invisible to the rest of the
  system (other than the block IO device), so direct IO to/from pmem
  areas, direct mmap() or XIP is not possible yet.  The page cache will
  also shadow and double buffer pmem contents, etc.

  Initial support is for x86"

6c8a53c9e6 Merge branch 'perf-core-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip
Pull perf changes from Ingo Molnar:
 "Core kernel changes:

   - One of the more interesting features in this cycle is the ability
     to attach eBPF programs (user-defined, sandboxed bytecode executed
     by the kernel) to kprobes.

     This allows user-defined instrumentation on a live kernel image
     that can never crash, hang or interfere with the kernel negatively.
     (Right now it's limited to root-only, but in the future we might
     allow unprivileged use as well.)

     (Alexei Starovoitov)

   - Another non-trivial feature is per event clockid support: this
     allows, amongst other things, the selection of different clock
     sources for event timestamps traced via perf.

     This feature is sought by people who'd like to merge perf generated
     events with external events that were measured with different
     clocks:

       - cluster wide profiling

       - for system wide tracing with user-space events,

       - JIT profiling events

     etc.  Matching perf tooling support is added as well, available via
     the -k, --clockid <clockid> parameter to perf record et al.

     (Peter Zijlstra)

  Hardware enablement kernel changes:

   - x86 Intel Processor Trace (PT) support: which is a hardware tracer
     on steroids, available on Broadwell CPUs.

     The hardware trace stream is directly output into the user-space
     ring-buffer, using the 'AUX' data format extension that was added
     to the perf core to support hardware constraints such as the
     necessity to have the tracing buffer physically contiguous.

     This patch-set was developed for two years and this is the result.
     A simple way to make use of this is to use BTS tracing, the PT
     driver emulates BTS output - available via the 'intel_bts' PMU.
     More explicit PT specific tooling support is in the works as well -
     will probably be ready by 4.2.

     (Alexander Shishkin, Peter Zijlstra)

   - x86 Intel Cache QoS Monitoring (CQM) support: this is a hardware
     feature of Intel Xeon CPUs that allows the measurement and
     allocation/partitioning of caches to individual workloads.

     These kernel changes expose the measurement side as a new PMU
     driver, which exposes various QoS related PMU events.  (The
     partitioning change is work in progress and is planned to be merged
     as a cgroup extension.)

     (Matt Fleming, Peter Zijlstra; CPU feature detection by Peter P
     Waskiewicz Jr)

   - x86 Intel Haswell LBR call stack support: this is a new Haswell
     feature that allows the hardware recording of call chains, plus
     tooling support.  To activate this feature you have to enable it
     via the new 'lbr' call-graph recording option:

        perf record --call-graph lbr
        perf report

     or:

        perf top --call-graph lbr

     This hardware feature is a lot faster than stack walk or dwarf
     based unwinding, but has some limitations:

       - It reuses the current LBR facility, so LBR call stack and
         branch record can not be enabled at the same time.

       - It is only available for user-space callchains.

     (Yan, Zheng)

   - x86 Intel Broadwell CPU support and various event constraints and
     event table fixes for earlier models.

     (Andi Kleen)

   - x86 Intel HT CPUs event scheduling workarounds.  This is a complex
     CPU bug affecting the SNB,IVB,HSW families that results in counter
     value corruption.  The mitigation code is automatically enabled and
     is transparent.

     (Maria Dimakopoulou, Stephane Eranian)

  The perf tooling side had a ton of changes in this cycle as well, so
  I'm only able to list the user visible changes here, in addition to
  the tooling changes outlined above:

  User visible changes affecting all tools:

      - Improve support of compressed kernel modules (Jiri Olsa)
      - Save DSO loading errno to better report errors (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)
      - Bash completion for subcommands (Yunlong Song)
      - Add 'I' event modifier for perf_event_attr.exclude_idle bit (Jiri Olsa)
      - Support missing -f to override perf.data file ownership. (Yunlong Song)
      - Show the first event with an invalid filter (David Ahern, Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)

  User visible changes in individual tools:

    'perf data':

        New tool for converting perf.data to other formats, initially
        for the CTF (Common Trace Format) from LTTng (Jiri Olsa,
        Sebastian Siewior)

    'perf diff':

        Add --kallsyms option (David Ahern)

    'perf list':

        Allow listing events with 'tracepoint' prefix (Yunlong Song)

        Sort the output of the command (Yunlong Song)

    'perf kmem':

        Respect -i option (Jiri Olsa)

        Print big numbers using thousands' group (Namhyung Kim)

        Allow -v option (Namhyung Kim)

        Fix alignment of slab result table (Namhyung Kim)

    'perf probe':

        Support multiple probes on different binaries on the same command line (Masami Hiramatsu)

        Support unnamed union/structure members data collection. (Masami Hiramatsu)

        Check kprobes blacklist when adding new events. (Masami Hiramatsu)

    'perf record':

        Teach 'perf record' about perf_event_attr.clockid (Peter Zijlstra)

        Support recording running/enabled time (Andi Kleen)

    'perf sched':

        Improve the performance of 'perf sched replay' on high CPU core count machines (Yunlong Song)

    'perf report' and 'perf top':

        Allow annotating entries in callchains in the hists browser (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)

        Indicate which callchain entries are annotated in the
        TUI hists browser (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)

        Add pid/tid filtering to 'report' and 'script' commands (David Ahern)

        Consider PERF_RECORD_ events with cpumode == 0 in 'perf top', removing one
        cause of long term memory usage buildup, i.e. not processing PERF_RECORD_EXIT
        events (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)

    'perf stat':

        Report unsupported events properly (Suzuki K. Poulose)

        Output running time and run/enabled ratio in CSV mode (Andi Kleen)

    'perf trace':

        Handle legacy syscalls tracepoints (David Ahern, Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)

        Only insert blank duration bracket when tracing syscalls (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)

        Filter out the trace pid when no threads are specified (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)

        Dump stack on segfaults (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)

        No need to explicitely enable evsels for workload started from perf, let it
        be enabled via perf_event_attr.enable_on_exec, removing some events that take
        place in the 'perf trace' before a workload is really started by it.
        (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)

        Allow mixing with tracepoints and suppressing plain syscalls. (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)

  There's also been a ton of infrastructure work done, such as the
  split-out of perf's build system into tools/build/ and other changes -
  see the shortlog and changelog for details"

Commit:

  e2b32e6785 ("x86, kaslr: randomize module base load address")

made module base address randomization unconditional and didn't regard
disabled KKASLR due to CONFIG_HIBERNATION and command line option
"nokaslr". For more info see (now reverted) commit:

  f47233c2d3 ("x86/mm/ASLR: Propagate base load address calculation")

In order to propagate KASLR status to kernel proper, we need a single bit
in boot_params.hdr.loadflags and we've chosen bit 1 thus leaving the
top-down allocated bits for bits supposed to be used by the bootloader.

Add support for Intel Processor Trace (PT) to kernel's perf events.
PT is an extension of Intel Architecture that collects information about
software execuction such as control flow, execution modes and timings and
formats it into highly compressed binary packets. Even being compressed,
these packets are generated at hundreds of megabytes per second per core,
which makes it impractical to decode them on the fly in the kernel.

This driver exports trace data by through AUX space in the perf ring
buffer, which is zero-copy mapped into userspace for faster data retrieval.

ec776ef6bb x86/mm: Add support for the non-standard protected e820 type
Various recent BIOSes support NVDIMMs or ADR using a
non-standard e820 memory type, and Intel supplied reference
Linux code using this type to various vendors.

Wire this e820 table type up to export platform devices for the
pmem driver so that we can use it in Linux.

9a036b93a3 x86/signal/64: Remove 'fs' and 'gs' from sigcontext
As far as I can tell, these fields have been set to zero on save
and ignored on restore since Linux was imported into git.
Rename them '__pad1' and '__pad2' to avoid confusion.  This may
also allow us to recycle them some day.

This also adds a comment clarifying the history of those fields.

I'm intentionally avoiding calling either of them '__pad0': the
field formerly known as '__pad0' is now 'ss'.

c6f2062935 x86/signal/64: Fix SS handling for signals delivered to 64-bit programs
The comment in the signal code says that apps can save/restore
other segments on their own.  It's true that apps can *save* SS
on their own, but there's no way for apps to restore it: SYSCALL
effectively resets SS to __USER_DS, so any value that user code
tries to load into SS gets lost on entry to sigreturn.

This recycles two padding bytes in the segment selector area for SS.

While we're at it, we need a second change to make this useful.

If the signal we're delivering is caused by a bad SS value,
saving that value isn't enough.  We need to remove that bad
value from the regs before we try to deliver the signal.  Oddly,
the i386 code already got this right.

I suspect that 64-bit programs that try to run 16-bit code and
use signals will have a lot of trouble without this.

This reverts commit:

  f47233c2d3 ("x86/mm/ASLR: Propagate base load address calculation")

The main reason for the revert is that the new boot flag does not work
at all currently, and in order to make this work, we need non-trivial
changes to the x86 boot code which we didn't manage to get done in
time for merging.

And even if we did, they would've been too risky so instead of
rushing things and break booting 4.1 on boxes left and right, we
will be very strict and conservative and will take our time with
this to fix and test it properly.

76f5df43ca x86/asm/entry/64: Always allocate a complete "struct pt_regs" on the kernel stack
The 64-bit entry code was using six stack slots less by not
saving/restoring registers which are callee-preserved according
to the C ABI, and was not allocating space for them.

Only when syscalls needed a complete "struct pt_regs" was
the complete area allocated and filled in.

As an additional twist, on interrupt entry a "slightly less
truncated pt_regs" trick is used, to make nested interrupt
stacks easier to unwind.

This proved to be a source of significant obfuscation and subtle
bugs. For example, 'stub_fork' had to pop the return address,
extend the struct, save registers, and push return address back.
Ugly. 'ia32_ptregs_common' pops return address and "returns" via
jmp insn, throwing a wrench into CPU return stack cache.

This patch changes the code to always allocate a complete
"struct pt_regs" on the kernel stack. The saving of registers
is still done lazily.

"Partial pt_regs" trick on interrupt stack is retained.

Macros which manipulate "struct pt_regs" on stack are reworked:

 - ALLOC_PT_GPREGS_ON_STACK allocates the structure.

 - SAVE_C_REGS saves to it those registers which are clobbered
   by C code.

 - SAVE_EXTRA_REGS saves to it all other registers.

 - Corresponding RESTORE_* and REMOVE_PT_GPREGS_FROM_STACK macros
   reverse it.

'ia32_ptregs_common', 'stub_fork' and friends lost their ugly dance
with the return pointer.

LOAD_ARGS32 in ia32entry.S now uses symbolic stack offsets
instead of magic numbers.

'error_entry' and 'save_paranoid' now use SAVE_C_REGS +
SAVE_EXTRA_REGS instead of having it open-coded yet again.

Patch was run-tested: 64-bit executables, 32-bit executables,
strace works.

Timing tests did not show measurable difference in 32-bit
and 64-bit syscalls.

"rmmod hv_netvsc; modprobe hv_netvsc; rmmod hv_utils; modprobe hv_utils"

some kinds of hypercalls are sent too frequently.
Without the patch, the driver can occasionally fail to load.

Also let's retry HV_STATUS_INSUFFICIENT_MEMORY, though we didn't get it
before.

Removed 'case -ENOMEM', since the hypervisor doesn't return this.

f47233c2d3 x86/mm/ASLR: Propagate base load address calculation
Commit:

  e2b32e6785 ("x86, kaslr: randomize module base load address")

makes the base address for module to be unconditionally randomized in
case when CONFIG_RANDOMIZE_BASE is defined and "nokaslr" option isn't
present on the commandline.

This is not consistent with how choose_kernel_location() decides whether
it will randomize kernel load base.

Namely, CONFIG_HIBERNATION disables kASLR (unless "kaslr" option is
explicitly specified on kernel commandline), which makes the state space
larger than what module loader is looking at. IOW CONFIG_HIBERNATION &&
CONFIG_RANDOMIZE_BASE is a valid config option, kASLR wouldn't be applied
by default in that case, but module loader is not aware of that.

Instead of fixing the logic in module.c, this patch takes more generic
aproach. It introduces a new bootparam setup data_type SETUP_KASLR and
uses that to pass the information whether kaslr has been applied during
kernel decompression, and sets a global 'kaslr_enabled' variable
accordingly, so that any kernel code (module loading, livepatching, ...)
can make decisions based on its value.

x86 module loader is converted to make use of this flag.

872912352c ACPI and power management updates for v3.20-rc1
- Rework of the core ACPI resources parsing code to fix issues
    in it and make using resource offsets more convenient and
    consolidation of some resource-handing code in a couple of places
    that have grown analagous data structures and code to cover the
    the same gap in the core (Jiang Liu, Thomas Gleixner, Lv Zheng).
 
  - ACPI-based IOAPIC hotplug support on top of the resources handling
    rework (Jiang Liu, Yinghai Lu).
 
  - ACPICA update to upstream release 20150204 including an interrupt
    handling rework that allows drivers to install raw handlers for
    ACPI GPEs which then become entirely responsible for the given GPE
    and the ACPICA core code won't touch it (Lv Zheng, David E Box,
    Octavian Purdila).
 
  - ACPI EC driver rework to fix several concurrency issues and other
    problems related to events handling on top of the ACPICA's new
    support for raw GPE handlers (Lv Zheng).
 
  - New ACPI driver for AMD SoCs analogous to the LPSS (Low-Power
    Subsystem) driver for Intel chips (Ken Xue).
 
  - Two minor fixes of the ACPI LPSS driver (Heikki Krogerus,
    Jarkko Nikula).
 
  - Two new blacklist entries for machines (Samsung 730U3E/740U3E and
    510R) where the native backlight interface doesn't work correctly
    while the ACPI one does (Hans de Goede).
 
  - Rework of the ACPI processor driver's handling of idle states
    to make the code more straightforward and less bloated overall
    (Rafael J Wysocki).
 
  - Assorted minor fixes related to ACPI and SFI (Andreas Ruprecht,
    Andy Shevchenko, Hanjun Guo, Jan Beulich, Rafael J Wysocki,
    Yaowei Bai).
 
  - PCI core power management modification to avoid resuming (some)
    runtime-suspended devices during system suspend if they are in
    the right states already (Rafael J Wysocki).
 
  - New SFI-based cpufreq driver for Intel platforms using SFI
    (Srinidhi Kasagar).
 
  - cpufreq core fixes, cleanups and simplifications (Viresh Kumar,
    Doug Anderson, Wolfram Sang).

Pull ACPI and power management updates from Rafael Wysocki:
 "We have a few new features this time, including a new SFI-based

turbostat -v
will now decode these bits.

Each MSR has an "Active" set of bits which describe
current conditions, and a "Logged" set of bits,
which describe what has happened since last cleared.

Turbostat currently doesn't clear the log bits.

3fb2f4237b x86/tls: Don't validate lm in set_thread_area() after all
It turns out that there's a lurking ABI issue.  GCC, when
compiling this in a 32-bit program:

struct user_desc desc = {
	.entry_number    = idx,
	.base_addr       = base,
	.limit           = 0xfffff,
	.seg_32bit       = 1,
	.contents        = 0, /* Data, grow-up */
	.read_exec_only  = 0,
	.limit_in_pages  = 1,
	.seg_not_present = 0,
	.useable         = 0,
};

will leave .lm uninitialized.  This means that anything in the
kernel that reads user_desc.lm for 32-bit tasks is unreliable.

Revert the .lm check in set_thread_area().  The value never did
anything in the first place.

92a578b064 ACPI and power management updates for 3.19-rc1
This time we have some more new material than we used to have during
 the last couple of development cycles.
 
 The most important part of it to me is the introduction of a unified
 interface for accessing device properties provided by platform
 firmware.  It works with Device Trees and ACPI in a uniform way and
 drivers using it need not worry about where the properties come
 from as long as the platform firmware (either DT or ACPI) makes
 them available.  It covers both devices and "bare" device node
 objects without struct device representation as that turns out to
 be necessary in some cases.  This has been in the works for quite
 a few months (and development cycles) and has been approved by
 all of the relevant maintainers.
 
 On top of that, some drivers are switched over to the new interface
 (at25, leds-gpio, gpio_keys_polled) and some additional changes are
 made to the core GPIO subsystem to allow device drivers to manipulate
 GPIOs in the "canonical" way on platforms that provide GPIO information
 in their ACPI tables, but don't assign names to GPIO lines (in which
 case the driver needs to do that on the basis of what it knows about
 the device in question).  That also has been approved by the GPIO
 core maintainers and the rfkill driver is now going to use it.
 
 Second is support for hardware P-states in the intel_pstate driver.
 It uses CPUID to detect whether or not the feature is supported by
 the processor in which case it will be enabled by default.  However,
 it can be disabled entirely from the kernel command line if necessary.
 
 Next is support for a platform firmware interface based on ACPI
 operation regions used by the PMIC (Power Management Integrated
 Circuit) chips on the Intel Baytrail-T and Baytrail-T-CR platforms.
 That interface is used for manipulating power resources and for
 thermal management: sensor temperature reporting, trip point setting
 and so on.
 
 Also the ACPI core is now going to support the _DEP configuration
 information in a limited way.  Basically, _DEP it supposed to reflect
 off-the-hierarchy dependencies between devices which may be very
 indirect, like when AML for one device accesses locations in an
 operation region handled by another device's driver (usually, the
 device depended on this way is a serial bus or GPIO controller).
 The support added this time is sufficient to make the ACPI battery
 driver work on Asus T100A, but it is general enough to be able to
 cover some other use cases in the future.
 
 Finally, we have a new cpufreq driver for the Loongson1B processor.
 
 In addition to the above, there are fixes and cleanups all over the
 place as usual and a traditional ACPICA update to a recent upstream
 release.
 
 As far as the fixes go, the ACPI LPSS (Low-power Subsystem) driver
 for Intel platforms should be able to handle power management of
 the DMA engine correctly, the cpufreq-dt driver should interact
 with the thermal subsystem in a better way and the ACPI backlight
 driver should handle some more corner cases, among other things.
 
 On top of the ACPICA update there are fixes for race conditions
 in the ACPICA's interrupt handling code which might lead to some
 random and strange looking failures on some systems.
 
 In the cleanups department the most visible part is the series
 of commits targeted at getting rid of the CONFIG_PM_RUNTIME
 configuration option.  That was triggered by a discussion
 regarding the generic power domains code during which we realized
 that trying to support certain combinations of PM config options
 was painful and not really worth it, because nobody would use them
 in production anyway.  For this reason, we decided to make
 CONFIG_PM_SLEEP select CONFIG_PM_RUNTIME and that lead to the
 conclusion that the latter became redundant and CONFIG_PM could
 be used instead of it.  The material here makes that replacement
 in a major part of the tree, but there will be at least one more
 batch of that in the second part of the merge window.
 
 Specifics:
 
  - Support for retrieving device properties information from ACPI
    _DSD device configuration objects and a unified device properties
    interface for device drivers (and subsystems) on top of that.
    As stated above, this works with Device Trees and ACPI and allows
    device drivers to be written in a platform firmware (DT or ACPI)
    agnostic way.  The at25, leds-gpio and gpio_keys_polled drivers
    are now going to use this new interface and the GPIO subsystem
    is additionally modified to allow device drivers to assign names
    to GPIO resources returned by ACPI _CRS objects (in case _DSD is
    not present or does not provide the expected data).  The changes
    in this set are mostly from Mika Westerberg, Rafael J Wysocki,
    Aaron Lu, and Darren Hart with some fixes from others (Fabio Estevam,
    Geert Uytterhoeven).
 
  - Support for Hardware Managed Performance States (HWP) as described
    in Volume 3, section 14.4, of the Intel SDM in the intel_pstate
    driver.  CPUID is used to detect whether or not the feature is
    supported by the processor.  If supported, it will be enabled
    automatically unless the intel_pstate=no_hwp switch is present in
    the kernel command line.  From Dirk Brandewie.
 
  - New Intel Broadwell-H ID for intel_pstate (Dirk Brandewie).
 
  - Support for firmware interface based on ACPI operation regions
    used by the PMIC chips on the Intel Baytrail-T and Baytrail-T-CR
    platforms for power resource control and thermal management
    (Aaron Lu).
 
  - Limited support for retrieving off-the-hierarchy dependencies
    between devices from ACPI _DEP device configuration objects
    and deferred probing support for the ACPI battery driver based
    on the _DEP information to make that driver work on Asus T100A
    (Lan Tianyu).

    (Lv Zheng and Rafael J Wysocki).
 
  - ACPI core fix for an RCU-related issue in the ioremap() regions
    management code that slowed down significantly after CPUs had
    been allowed to enter idle states even if they'd had RCU callbakcs
    queued and triggered some problems in certain proprietary graphics
    driver (and elsewhere).  The fix replaces synchronize_rcu() in
    that code with synchronize_rcu_expedited() which makes the issue
    go away.  From Konstantin Khlebnikov.
 
  - ACPI LPSS (Low-Power Subsystem) driver fix to handle power
    management of the DMA engine included into the LPSS correctly.
    The problem is that the DMA engine doesn't have ACPI PM support
    of its own and it simply is turned off when the last LPSS device
    having ACPI PM support goes into D3cold.  To work around that,
    the PM domain used by the ACPI LPSS driver is redesigned so at
    least one device with ACPI PM support will be on as long as the
    DMA engine is in use.  From Andy Shevchenko.

    systems where it doesn't work and where it was used by default by
    mistake (Aaron Lu).
 
  - Assorted minor ACPI core fixes and cleanups from Tomasz Nowicki,
    Sudeep Holla, Huang Rui, Hanjun Guo, Fabian Frederick, and
    Ashwin Chaugule (mostly related to the upcoming ARM64 support).

Merge tag 'pm+acpi-3.19-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rafael/linux-pm

Pull ACPI and power management updates from Rafael Wysocki:
 "This time we have some more new material than we used to have during
  the last couple of development cycles.

  The most important part of it to me is the introduction of a unified
  interface for accessing device properties provided by platform
  firmware.  It works with Device Trees and ACPI in a uniform way and
  drivers using it need not worry about where the properties come from
  as long as the platform firmware (either DT or ACPI) makes them
  available.  It covers both devices and "bare" device node objects
  without struct device representation as that turns out to be necessary
  in some cases.  This has been in the works for quite a few months (and
  development cycles) and has been approved by all of the relevant
  maintainers.

  On top of that, some drivers are switched over to the new interface
  (at25, leds-gpio, gpio_keys_polled) and some additional changes are
  made to the core GPIO subsystem to allow device drivers to manipulate
  GPIOs in the "canonical" way on platforms that provide GPIO
  information in their ACPI tables, but don't assign names to GPIO lines
  (in which case the driver needs to do that on the basis of what it
  knows about the device in question).  That also has been approved by
  the GPIO core maintainers and the rfkill driver is now going to use
  it.

  Second is support for hardware P-states in the intel_pstate driver.
  It uses CPUID to detect whether or not the feature is supported by the
  processor in which case it will be enabled by default.  However, it
  can be disabled entirely from the kernel command line if necessary.

  Next is support for a platform firmware interface based on ACPI
  operation regions used by the PMIC (Power Management Integrated
  Circuit) chips on the Intel Baytrail-T and Baytrail-T-CR platforms.
  That interface is used for manipulating power resources and for
  thermal management: sensor temperature reporting, trip point setting
  and so on.

  Also the ACPI core is now going to support the _DEP configuration
  information in a limited way.  Basically, _DEP it supposed to reflect
  off-the-hierarchy dependencies between devices which may be very
  indirect, like when AML for one device accesses locations in an
  operation region handled by another device's driver (usually, the
  device depended on this way is a serial bus or GPIO controller).  The
  support added this time is sufficient to make the ACPI battery driver
  work on Asus T100A, but it is general enough to be able to cover some
  other use cases in the future.

  Finally, we have a new cpufreq driver for the Loongson1B processor.

  In addition to the above, there are fixes and cleanups all over the
  place as usual and a traditional ACPICA update to a recent upstream
  release.

  As far as the fixes go, the ACPI LPSS (Low-power Subsystem) driver for
  Intel platforms should be able to handle power management of the DMA
  engine correctly, the cpufreq-dt driver should interact with the
  thermal subsystem in a better way and the ACPI backlight driver should
  handle some more corner cases, among other things.

  On top of the ACPICA update there are fixes for race conditions in the
  ACPICA's interrupt handling code which might lead to some random and
  strange looking failures on some systems.

  In the cleanups department the most visible part is the series of
  commits targeted at getting rid of the CONFIG_PM_RUNTIME configuration
  option.  That was triggered by a discussion regarding the generic
  power domains code during which we realized that trying to support
  certain combinations of PM config options was painful and not really
  worth it, because nobody would use them in production anyway.  For
  this reason, we decided to make CONFIG_PM_SLEEP select
  CONFIG_PM_RUNTIME and that lead to the conclusion that the latter
  became redundant and CONFIG_PM could be used instead of it.  The
  material here makes that replacement in a major part of the tree, but
  there will be at least one more batch of that in the second part of
  the merge window.

  Specifics:

   - Support for retrieving device properties information from ACPI _DSD
     device configuration objects and a unified device properties
     interface for device drivers (and subsystems) on top of that.  As
     stated above, this works with Device Trees and ACPI and allows
     device drivers to be written in a platform firmware (DT or ACPI)
     agnostic way.  The at25, leds-gpio and gpio_keys_polled drivers are
     now going to use this new interface and the GPIO subsystem is
     additionally modified to allow device drivers to assign names to
     GPIO resources returned by ACPI _CRS objects (in case _DSD is not
     present or does not provide the expected data).  The changes in
     this set are mostly from Mika Westerberg, Rafael J Wysocki, Aaron
     Lu, and Darren Hart with some fixes from others (Fabio Estevam,
     Geert Uytterhoeven).

   - Support for Hardware Managed Performance States (HWP) as described
     in Volume 3, section 14.4, of the Intel SDM in the intel_pstate
     driver.  CPUID is used to detect whether or not the feature is
     supported by the processor.  If supported, it will be enabled
     automatically unless the intel_pstate=no_hwp switch is present in
     the kernel command line.  From Dirk Brandewie.

   - New Intel Broadwell-H ID for intel_pstate (Dirk Brandewie).

   - Support for firmware interface based on ACPI operation regions used
     by the PMIC chips on the Intel Baytrail-T and Baytrail-T-CR
     platforms for power resource control and thermal management (Aaron
     Lu).

   - Limited support for retrieving off-the-hierarchy dependencies
     between devices from ACPI _DEP device configuration objects and
     deferred probing support for the ACPI battery driver based on the
     _DEP information to make that driver work on Asus T100A (Lan
     Tianyu).

   - New cpufreq driver for the Loongson1B processor (Kelvin Cheung).

   - ACPICA update to upstream revision 20141107 which only affects
     tools (Bob Moore).

   - Fixes for race conditions in the ACPICA's interrupt handling code
     and in the ACPI code related to system suspend and resume (Lv Zheng
     and Rafael J Wysocki).

   - ACPI core fix for an RCU-related issue in the ioremap() regions
     management code that slowed down significantly after CPUs had been
     allowed to enter idle states even if they'd had RCU callbakcs
     queued and triggered some problems in certain proprietary graphics
     driver (and elsewhere).  The fix replaces synchronize_rcu() in that
     code with synchronize_rcu_expedited() which makes the issue go
     away.  From Konstantin Khlebnikov.

   - ACPI LPSS (Low-Power Subsystem) driver fix to handle power
     management of the DMA engine included into the LPSS correctly.  The
     problem is that the DMA engine doesn't have ACPI PM support of its
     own and it simply is turned off when the last LPSS device having
     ACPI PM support goes into D3cold.  To work around that, the PM
     domain used by the ACPI LPSS driver is redesigned so at least one
     device with ACPI PM support will be on as long as the DMA engine is
     in use.  From Andy Shevchenko.

   - ACPI backlight driver fix to avoid using it on "Win8-compatible"
     systems where it doesn't work and where it was used by default by
     mistake (Aaron Lu).

   - Assorted minor ACPI core fixes and cleanups from Tomasz Nowicki,
     Sudeep Holla, Huang Rui, Hanjun Guo, Fabian Frederick, and Ashwin
     Chaugule (mostly related to the upcoming ARM64 support).

   - Intel RAPL (Running Average Power Limit) power capping driver fixes
     and improvements including new processor IDs (Jacob Pan).

   - Generic power domains modification to power up domains after
     attaching devices to them to meet the expectations of device
     drivers and bus types assuming devices to be accessible at probe
     time (Ulf Hansson).

   - Preliminary support for controlling device clocks from the generic
     power domains core code and modifications of the ARM/shmobile
     platform to use that feature (Ulf Hansson).

   - Assorted minor fixes and cleanups of the generic power domains core
     code (Ulf Hansson, Geert Uytterhoeven).

   - Assorted minor fixes and cleanups of the device clocks control code
     in the PM core (Geert Uytterhoeven, Grygorii Strashko).

   - Consolidation of device power management Kconfig options by making
     CONFIG_PM_SLEEP select CONFIG_PM_RUNTIME and removing the latter
     which is now redundant (Rafael J Wysocki and Kevin Hilman).  That
     is the first batch of the changes needed for this purpose.

   - Core device runtime power management support code cleanup related
     to the execution of callbacks (Andrzej Hajda).

   - cpuidle ARM support improvements (Lorenzo Pieralisi).

   - cpuidle cleanup related to the CPUIDLE_FLAG_TIME_VALID flag and a
     new MAINTAINERS entry for ARM Exynos cpuidle (Daniel Lezcano and
     Bartlomiej Zolnierkiewicz).

   - New cpufreq driver callback (->ready) to be executed when the
     cpufreq core is ready to use a given policy object and cpufreq-dt
     driver modification to use that callback for cooling device
     registration (Viresh Kumar).

   - cpufreq core fixes and cleanups (Viresh Kumar, Vince Hsu, James
     Geboski, Tomeu Vizoso).

   - Assorted fixes and cleanups in the cpufreq-pcc, intel_pstate,
     cpufreq-dt, pxa2xx cpufreq drivers (Lenny Szubowicz, Ethan Zhao,
     Stefan Wahren, Petr Cvek).

   - OPP (Operating Performance Points) framework modification to allow
     OPPs to be removed too and update of a few cpufreq drivers
     (cpufreq-dt, exynos5440, imx6q, cpufreq) to remove OPPs (added
     during initialization) on driver removal (Viresh Kumar).

   - Hibernation core fixes and cleanups (Tina Ruchandani and Markus
     Elfring).

   - PM Kconfig fix related to CPU power management (Pankaj Dubey).

   - cpupower tool fix (Prarit Bhargava)"
