ACPI and power management fixes for 3.17-rc4

 - Fix for recently broken test_suspend= command line argument
   (Rafael J Wysocki).

 - Fixes for regressions related to the ACPI video driver caused
   by switching the default to native backlight handling in 3.16
   from Hans de Goede.

 - Fix for a sysfs attribute of ACPI device objects that returns
   stale values sometimes due to the fact that they are cached
   instead of executing the appropriate method (_SUN) every time
   (broken in 3.14).  From Yasuaki Ishimatsu.

 - Fix for a deadlock between cpuidle_lock and cpu_hotplug.lock
   in the ACPI processor driver from Jiri Kosina.

 - Runtime output validation for the ACPI _DSD device configuration
   object missing from the support for it that has been introduced
   recently.  From Mika Westerberg.

 - Fix for an unuseful and misleading RAPL (Running Average Power
   Limit) domain detection message in the RAPL driver from Jacob Pan.

 - New Intel Haswell CPU ID for the RAPL driver from Jason Baron.

 - New Clevo W350etq blacklist entry for the ACPI EC driver
   from Lan Tianyu.

 - Cleanup for the intel_pstate driver and the core generic PM
   domains code from Gabriele Mazzotta and Geert Uytterhoeven.

   caused AC/battery plug/unplug and video brightness change
   notifications to be delayed on that machine from Lv Zheng.

 - Fix for an ACPI device enumeration regression that caused ACPI
   driver probe to fail for some devices where it succeeded before
   (Rafael J Wysocki).

 - intel_pstate driver fix to prevent it from printing an information
   message for every CPU in the system on every boot from Andi Kleen.

 - s5pv210 cpufreq driver fix to remove an __init annotation from
   a routine that in fact can be called at any time after init too
   from Mark Brown.

IOMMU Fixes for Linux v3.17-rc1

The fixes include:

	* A patch to fix a crash in the VT-d driver when devices with a
	  driver attached are hot-unplugged

	* A patch for the AMD IOMMU driver to fix a crash with device
	  assignment of 32 bit PCI devices to KVM guests

	* Fix for a copy&paste error in generic IOMMU code. Now the
	  right function pointer is checked before calling.

Linux 3.17-rc1

More ACPI and power management updates for 3.17-rc1

   that causes a kernel panic to trigger when memory hot-remove is
   attempted with CONFIG_ACPI_HOTPLUG_MEMORY unset from Tang Chen.

 - Fix for a cpufreq regression introduced in 3.16 that triggers a
   "sleeping function called from invalid context" bug in
   dev_pm_opp_init_cpufreq_table() from Stephen Boyd.

 - ACPI battery driver fix for a warning message added in 3.16 that
   prints silly stuff sometimes from Mariusz Ceier.

 - Hibernation fix for safer handling of mismatches in the 820 memory
   map between the configurations during image creation and during
   the subsequent restore from Chun-Yi Lee.

 - ACPI processor driver fix to handle CPU hotplug notifications
   correctly during system suspend/resume from Lan Tianyu.

 - Series of four cpuidle menu governor cleanups that also should
   speed it up a bit from Mel Gorman.
