Linux 3.12-rc3

ACPI and power management fixes for 3.12-rc3

 1) After recent locking changes in the cpufreq core it is possible
    to trigger BUG_ON(!policy) in lock_policy_rwsem_read() if
    cpufreq_get() is called before registering a cpufreq driver.
    Fix from Viresh Kumar.

 2) If intel_pstate has been loaded already, it doesn't make sense
    to do anything in acpi_cpufreq_init() and moreover doing something
    in there in that case may be harmful, so make that function return
    immediately if another cpufreq driver is already present.  From
    Yinghai Lu.

 3) The ACPI IPMI driver sometimes attempts to acquire a mutex from
    interrupt context, which can be avoided by replacing that mutex
    with a spinlock.  From Lv Zheng.

 4) A NULL pointer may be dereferenced by the exynos5440 cpufreq
    driver if a memory allocation made by it fails.  Fix from
    Sachin Kamat.

 5) Hanjun Guo's commit fixes a typo in the kerneldoc comment
    documenting acpi_bus_unregister_driver().

 1) Four fixes for cpufreq regressions introduced by the changes that
    removed Device Tree parsing for CPU device nodes from cpufreq
    drivers from Sudeep KarkadaNagesha.

 2) Two fixes for recent cpufreq regressions introduced by changes
    related to the preservation of sysfs attributes over system
    suspend/resume cycles from Viresh Kumar.

 3) Fix for ACPI-based wakeup signaling in the PCI subsystem that
    fails to stop PME polling for devices put into the D3cold power
    state from Rafael J Wysocki.

 4) Fix for bad interactions between cpufreq and udev on systems
    supporting intel_pstate where acpi-cpufreq is available as well
    from Yinghai Lu.

Linux 3.12-rc1

This is the 3.11.1 stable release

This is the 3.10.12 stable release

This is the 3.4.62 stable release

This is the 3.0.96 stable release

The highlights of the release are nested EPT and pv-ticketlocks
support (hypervisor part; guest part, which is most of the code, goes
through tip tree).  Apart of that there are many fixes for all arches.

IOMMU Updates for Linux v3.12

This round the updates contain:

	* A new driver for the Freescale PAMU IOMMU from Varun Sethi.
	  This driver has cooked for a while and required changes to the
	  IOMMU-API and infrastructure that were already merged before.
	* Updates for the ARM-SMMU driver from Will Deacon
	* Various fixes, the most important one is probably a fix from
	  Alex Williamson for a memory leak in the VT-d page-table
	  freeing code

In summary not all that much. The biggest part in the diffstat is the
new PAMU driver.
