Merge tag 'pm+acpi-3.15-rc1-3' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rafael/linux-pm
Pull more ACPI and power management fixes and updates from Rafael Wysocki: "This is PM and ACPI material that has emerged over the last two weeks and one fix for a CPU hotplug regression introduced by the recent CPU hotplug notifiers registration series. Included are intel_idle and turbostat updates from Len Brown (these have been in linux-next for quite some time), a new cpufreq driver for powernv (that might spend some more time in linux-next, but BenH was asking me so nicely to push it for 3.15 that I couldn't resist), some cpufreq fixes and cleanups (including fixes for some silly breakage in a couple of cpufreq drivers introduced during the 3.14 cycle), assorted ACPI cleanups, wakeup framework documentation fixes, a new sysfs attribute for cpuidle and a new command line argument for power domains diagnostics. Specifics: - Fix for a recently introduced CPU hotplug regression in ARM KVM from Ming Lei. - Fixes for breakage in the at32ap, loongson2_cpufreq, and unicore32 cpufreq drivers introduced during the 3.14 cycle (-stable material) from Chen Gang and Viresh Kumar. - New powernv cpufreq driver from Vaidyanathan Srinivasan, with bits from Gautham R Shenoy and Srivatsa S Bhat. - Exynos cpufreq driver fix preventing it from being included into multiplatform builds that aren't supported by it from Sachin Kamat. - cpufreq cleanups related to the usage of the driver_data field in struct cpufreq_frequency_table from Viresh Kumar. - cpufreq ppc driver cleanup from Sachin Kamat. - Intel BayTrail support for intel_idle and ACPI idle from Len Brown. - Intel CPU model 54 (Atom N2000 series) support for intel_idle from Jan Kiszka. - intel_idle fix for Intel Ivy Town residency targets from Len Brown. - turbostat updates (Intel Broadwell support and output cleanups) from Len Brown. - New cpuidle sysfs attribute for exporting C-states' target residency information to user space from Daniel Lezcano. - New kernel command line argument to prevent power domains enabled by the bootloader from being turned off even if they are not in use (for diagnostics purposes) from Tushar Behera. - Fixes for wakeup sysfs attributes documentation from Geert Uytterhoeven. - New ACPI video blacklist entry for ThinkPad Helix from Stephen Chandler Paul. - Assorted ACPI cleanups and a Kconfig help update from Jonghwan Choi, Zhihui Zhang, Hanjun Guo" * tag 'pm+acpi-3.15-rc1-3' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rafael/linux-pm: (28 commits) ACPI: Update the ACPI spec information in Kconfig arm, kvm: fix double lock on cpu_add_remove_lock cpuidle: sysfs: Export target residency information cpufreq: ppc: Remove duplicate inclusion of fsl_soc.h cpufreq: create another field .flags in cpufreq_frequency_table cpufreq: use kzalloc() to allocate memory for cpufreq_frequency_table cpufreq: don't print value of .driver_data from core cpufreq: ia64: don't set .driver_data to index cpufreq: powernv: Select CPUFreq related Kconfig options for powernv cpufreq: powernv: Use cpufreq_frequency_table.driver_data to store pstate ids cpufreq: powernv: cpufreq driver for powernv platform cpufreq: at32ap: don't declare local variable as static cpufreq: loongson2_cpufreq: don't declare local variable as static cpufreq: unicore32: fix typo issue for 'clk' cpufreq: exynos: Disable on multiplatform build PM / wakeup: Correct presence vs. emptiness of wakeup_* attributes PM / domains: Add pd_ignore_unused to keep power domains enabled ACPI / dock: Drop dock_device_ids[] table ACPI / video: Favor native backlight interface for ThinkPad Helix ACPI / thermal: Fix wrong variable usage in debug statement ...
