ACPI updates for 5.8-rc1

 - Update the ACPICA code in the kernel to upstream revision
   20200430:

     create operators (Erik Kaneda).

   * Fix required parameters for _NIG and _NIH (Erik Kaneda).

   * Make acpi_protocol_lengths static (Yue Haibing).

 - Fix ACPI table reference counting errors in several places, mostly
   in error code paths (Hanjun Guo).

 - Extend the Generic Event Device (GED) driver to support _Exx and
   _Lxx handler methods (Ard Biesheuvel).

 - Add new acpi_evaluate_reg() helper and modify the ACPI PCI hotplug
   code to use it (Hans de Goede).

 - Add new DPTF battery participant driver and make the DPFT power
   participant driver create more sysfs device attributes (Srinivas
   Pandruvada).

 - Improve the handling of memory failures in APEI (James Morse).

 - Add new blacklist entry for Acer TravelMate 5735Z to the backlight
   driver (Paul Menzel).

 - Add i2c address for thermal control to the PMIC driver (Mauro
   Carvalho Chehab).

 - Allow the ACPI processor idle driver to work on platforms with
   only one ACPI C-state present (Zhang Rui).

 - Fix kobject reference count leaks in error code paths in two
   places (Qiushi Wu).

 - Delete unused proc filename macros and make some symbols static
   (Pascal Terjan, Zheng Zengkai, Zou Wei).

PNP update for 5.8-rc1

Replace a zero-length array with a flexible-array (Gustavo A. R. Silva).

Power management updates for 5.8-rc1

 - Rework the system-wide PM driver flags to make them easier to
   understand and use and update their documentation (Rafael Wysocki,
   Alan Stern).

 - Allow cpuidle governors to be switched at run time regardless of
   the kernel configuration and update the related documentation
   accordingly (Hanjun Guo).

 - Improve the resume device handling in the user space hibernarion
   interface code (Domenico Andreoli).

 - Document the intel-speed-select sysfs interface (Srinivas
   Pandruvada).

 - Make the ACPI code handing suspend to idle print more debug
   messages to help diagnose issues with it (Rafael Wysocki).

 - Fix a helper routine in the cpufreq core and correct a typo in
   the struct cpufreq_driver kerneldoc comment (Rafael Wysocki, Wang
   Wenhu).

 - Update cpufreq drivers:

   * Make the intel_pstate driver start in the passive mode by
     default on systems without HWP (Rafael Wysocki).

   * Add i.MX7ULP support to the imx-cpufreq-dt driver and add
     i.MX7ULP to the cpufreq-dt-platdev blacklist (Peng Fan).

   * Convert the qoriq cpufreq driver to a platform one, make the
     platform code create a suitable device object for it and add
     platform dependencies to it (Mian Yousaf Kaukab, Geert
     Uytterhoeven).

   * Fix wrong compatible binding in the qcom driver (Ansuel Smith).

   * Build the omap driver by default for ARCH_OMAP2PLUS (Anders
     Roxell).

   * Add r8a7742 SoC support to the dt cpufreq driver (Lad Prabhakar).

 - Update cpuidle core and drivers:

   * Fix three reference count leaks in error code paths in the
     cpuidle core (Qiushi Wu).

   * Convert Qualcomm SPM to a generic cpuidle driver (Stephan
     Gerhold).

   * Fix up the execution order when entering a domain idle state in
     the PSCI driver (Ulf Hansson).

 - Fix a reference counting issue related to clock management and
   clean up two oddities in the PM-runtime framework (Rafael Wysocki,
   Andy Shevchenko).

 - Add ElkhartLake support to the Intel RAPL power capping driver
   and remove an unused local MSR definition from it (Jacob Pan,
   Sumeet Pawnikar).

 - Update devfreq core and drivers:

   * Replace strncpy() with strscpy() in the devfreq core and use
     lockdep asserts instead of manual checks for a locked mutex in
     it (Dmitry Osipenko, Krzysztof Kozlowski).

   * Add a generic imx bus scaling driver and make it register an
     interconnect device (Leonard Crestez, Gustavo A. R. Silva).

   * Make the cpufreq notifier in the tegra30 driver take boosting
     into account and delete an unuseful error message from that
     driver (Dmitry Osipenko, Markus Elfring).

 - Remove unneeded semicolon from the cpupower code (Zou Wei).

regulator: Updates for v5.8

The big change in this release is that Matti Vaittinen has factored out
the linear ranges support into a separate library in lib/ since it is
also useful for at least the power subsystem (and most likely others
too), it helps subsystems which need to map register values into more
useful real world values do so with minimal per-driver code.

 - Factoring out of the linear ranges support into a library in lib/
   from Matti Vaittinen.
 - Trace points for bypass mode.
 - Use the consumer name in debugfs to make it easier to understand.
 - New drivers for Maxim MAX77826 and MAX8998.

ASoC: Updates for v5.8

This has been another very active release with a bunch of new drivers,
lots of fixes everywhere and continued core improvements from
Morimoto-san:

 - Lots of core cleanups and refactorings from Morimoto-san, factoring
   out common operations and making the card abstraction more solid.
 - Continued work on cleaning up and improving the Intel drivers, along
   with some new platform support for them.
 - Fixes to make the Marvell SSPA driver work upstream.
 - Support for AMD Renoir ACP, Dialog DA7212, Freescale EASRC and
   i.MX8M, Intel Elkhard Lake, Maxim MAX98390, Nuvoton NAU8812 and
   NAU8814 and Realtek RT1016.

Linux 5.7

Another set of changes, including
 * many 6 GHz changes, though it's not _quite_ complete
   (I left out scanning for now, we're still discussing)
 * allow userspace SA-query processing for operating channel
   validation
 * TX status for control port TX, for AP-side operation
 * more per-STA/TID control options
 * move to kHz for channels, for future S1G operation
 * various other small changes

wireless-drivers-next patches for v5.8

Third set of patches for v5.8. Final new features before the merge
window (most likely) opens, noteworthy here is adding WPA3 support to
old drivers rt2800, b43 and b43_legacy.
