ACPI and power management fixes for 3.15-rc6 - ACPICA fix for a stale pointer access introduced by a recent commit in the XSDT validation code from Lv Zheng. - ACPICA fix for the default value of the command line switch to favor 32-bit FADT addresses (in case there's a conflict between a 64-bit and a 32-bit address). The previous default was that the 32-bit version would take precedence and we tried to change it to the other way around and it didn't work. From Lv Zheng. - A TPM commit related to ACPI _DSM in 3.14 caused the driver to refuse to load if a specific _DSM was missing and that broke resume from system suspend on Chromebooks that require the TPM hardware to be restored to a working state during resume by the OS. Restore the old behavior to load the driver if the _DSM in question is not present, but prevent it from using the feature the _DSM is for. - ACPI AC driver conversion in 3.13 broke thermal management on at least one machine and has to be reverted. From Guenter Roeck. - Two reverts of 3.13 commits that attempted to remove the old ACPI battery interface in /proc, but turned out to break some utilities still using that interface. From Lan Tianyu. - ACPI processor driver fix to prevent acpi_processor_add() from modifying the CPU device's .offline field which leads to breakage if the initial online of the CPU fails. From Igor Mammedov. - Two intel_pstate fixes, one to take a BayTrail documentation update into account and one to avoid forcing the maximum P-state on init which causes CPU PM trouble on systems with P-states coordination when one of the CPU cores is initialized after an offline/online cycle triggered by user space. Both stable candidates, from Dirk Brandewie. - Fix for the ACPI video DMI blacklist entry for Dell Inspiron 7520 from Aaron Lu. - Two new ACPI video blacklist entries for machines shipping with Win8 that need to use native backlight so that it can be controlled in a usual way (which doesn't work otherwise due bugs in the ACPI tables) from Hans de Goede. - Two ACPI _OSI quirks for systems that need them to work correctly with Linux from Edward Lin and Hans de Goede. /
