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.

- final bits (again) for the rotation support (Sonika Jindal)
- support bl_power in the intel backlight (Jani)
- vdd handling improvements from Ville
- i830M fixes from Ville
- piles of prep work all over to make skl enabling just plug in (Damien, Sonika)
- rename DP training defines to reflect latest edp standards, this touches all
  drm drivers supporting DP (Sonika Jindal)
- cache edids during single detect cycle to avoid re-reading it for e.g. audio,
  from Chris
- move w/a for registers which are stored in the hw context to the context init
  code (Arun&Damien)
- edp panel power sequencer fixes, helps chv a lot (Ville)
- piles of other chv fixes all over
- much more paranoid pageflip handling with stall detection and better recovery
  from Chris
- small things all over, as usual

regulator: Documentation fixes for v3.17

All the fixes people have found for the regulator API have been
documentation fixes, avoiding warnings while building the kerneldoc,
fixing some errors in one of the DT bindings documents and fixing some
typos in the header.

GPIO fixes for the v3.17 series:

- Some documentation sync
- Resource leak in the bt8xx driver
- Again fix the way varargs are used to handle the
  optional flags on the gpiod_* accessors. Now hopefully
  nailed the entire problem.

sound fixes for 3.17-rc4

This time it contains a bunch of small ASoC fixes that slipped from in
previous updates, in addition to the usual HD-audio fixes and the
regression fixes for FireWire updates in 3.17.
All commits are reasonably small fixes.

ASoC: Fixes for v3.17

A few more driver specific fixes on top of the currently pending fixes
(which are already in your tree but not Linus').

Linux 3.17-rc3

ACPI and power management fixes for 3.17-rc3

 - Fix for an ACPI regression related to the handling of fixed events
   that caused netlink routines to be (incorrectly) run in interrupt
   context from Lan Tianyu.

 - Fix for an ACPI EC driver regression on Acer Aspire V5-573G that
   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.

 - New Intel Braswell device ID for the ACPI LPSS (Low-Power Subsystem)
   driver from Alan Cox.

 - New Intel Braswell CPU ID for intel_pstate from Mika Westerberg.

Not that much content this time. Some RCU cleanups, crypto
performance improvements, and various patches all over,
rather than listing them one might as well look into the
git log instead.

regulator: Add voltage event notifications

Allow users to synchronize before as well as after a volatge change.

Here are a few fixes for mac80211. One has been discussed for a while
and adds a terminating NUL-byte to the alpha2 sent to userspace, which
shouldn't be necessary but since many places treat it as a string we
couldn't move to just sending two bytes.

In addition to that, we have two VLAN fixes from Felix, a mesh fix, a
fix for the recently introduced RX aggregation offload, a revert for
a broken patch (that luckily didn't really cause any harm) and a small
fix for alignment in debugfs.

sound fixes for 3.17-rc3

Here contains not many exciting changes but just a few minor ones:
An off-by-one proc write fix, a couple of trivial incldue guard
fixes, Acer laptop pinconfig fix, and a fix for DSD formats that
are still rarely used.

for_3.17-rc

Fix regressions to runtime PM on OMAP and other minor fixes.
