53951bd57d acpica: validate package element more carefully in acpi_rs_get_pci_routing_table_length
acpi_rs_get_pci_routing_table_length is not performing sufficient
validation on the package returned from _PRT.  It assumes a package of
packages and fails/faults if this is not the case.

We should validate each subpackage when extracted from the parent
package, and not accept objects of the wrong type, since that will just
cause the scanning to fail (likely with a kernel oops).

This can only happen with a serious BIOS bug, and is accompanied by a
warning something like this:

  ACPI Warning (nspredef-0949): \_SB_.PCI0.PEG4._PRT: Return Package type mismatch at index 0 - found Integer, expected Package [20090320]

5aa63f038f ACPI: EC: Fix ACPI EC resume non-query interrupt message
When resuming from standby (on a laptop) I see the following message in
my kernel.log:
"ACPI: EC: non-query interrupt received, switching to interrupt mode"
This apparently prevented sony-laptop to properly restore the brightness
level on resume.

The cause: In drivers/acpi/ec.c the acpi_ec_suspend function clears the
GPE mode bit, but this is not restored in acpi_ec_resume (the function
below it). The patch below fixes this by properly restoring the GPE_MODE
bit. Tested and confirmed to work.

f461ddea0a ACPI/hpet: prevent boot hang when hpet=force used on ICH-4M
Linux tells ICH4 users that they can (manually) invoke
"hpet=force" to enable the undocumented ICH-4M HPET.
The HPET becomes available for both clocksource and clockevents.

But as of ff69f2bba6
(acpi: fix of pmtimer overflow that make Cx states time incorrect)
the HPET may be used via clocksource for idle accounting, and
hpet=force on an ICH4 box hangs boot.

It turns out that touching the MMIO HPET withing
the ARB_DIS part of C3 will hang the hardware.

The fix is to simply move the timer access outside
the ARB_DIS region.  This is a no-op on modern hardware
because ARB_DIS is no longer used.

9261461077 ACPI: delete obsolete "bus master activity" proc field
Linux-2.6.29 deleted the legacy ACPI idle handler, leaving
the CPU_IDLE handler, which does not track bus master activity.

So delete the unused bm_activity field -- it is confusing to
print an always zero value.

This patch could break programs that parse
/proc/acpi/processor/*/power, since it deletes this
line from that file:

a71e4917dc ACPI: idle: mark_tsc_unstable() at init-time, not run-time
The c2 and c3 idle handlers check tsc_halts_in_c()
after every time they return from idle.  Um, when?:-)

Move this check to init-time to remove the unnecessary
run-time overhead, and also to have the check complete before
the first entry into the idle handler.

ff69f2bba6
(acpi: fix of pmtimer overflow that make Cx states time incorrect)
replaced the hard-coded use of the PM-timer inside idle,
with ktime_get_readl(), which possibly uses the TSC --
so it is now especially prudent to detect a broken TSC
before entering idle.

6a7c7eaf71 PM/Suspend: Introduce two new platform callbacks to avoid breakage
Commit 900af0d973 (PM: Change suspend
code ordering) changed the ordering of suspend code in such a way
that the platform .prepare() callback is now executed after the
device drivers' late suspend callbacks have run.  Unfortunately, this
turns out to break ARM platforms that need to talk via I2C to power
control devices during the .prepare() callback.

For this reason introduce two new platform suspend callbacks,
.prepare_late() and .wake(), that will be called just prior to
disabling non-boot CPUs and right after bringing them back on line,
respectively, and use them instead of .prepare() and .finish() for
ACPI suspend.  Make the PM core execute the .prepare() and .finish()
platform suspend callbacks where they were executed previously (that
is, right after calling the regular suspend methods provided by
device drivers and right before executing their regular resume
methods, respectively).

It is not necessary to make analogous changes to the hibernation
code and data structures at the moment, because they are only used
by ACPI platforms.

e047cca66c ACPI video: handle indexed _BQC correctly
In the current code, for a box with an indexed _BQC method, we
1. get the current brightness level by evaluating _BQC
2. set the value gotten in step 1 to _BCM
3. get the current brightness level again
4. set the _BQC_use_index flag if the results gotten
   in step 1 and in step 3 don't equal.

But this logic doesn't work actually, because the _BQC_use_index
is not set when acpi_video_device_lcd_set_level is invoked.
This results in a failure in step 2.
http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12249#c83

Now, we set the _BQC_use_index flag after invoking _BQC for the first
time. And reevaluate the _BQC to get the correct brightness level.

d68b597c88 ACPI: button: remove control method/fixed hardware distinctions
This patch removes the driver distinction between control method (CM)
and fixed hardware (FF) buttons.  We previously needed that so we
could install either a fixed event handler or a notify handler, but
the Linux/ACPI code now handles that for us, so we don't need to
worry about it.

Note that this removes the FF/CM annotation from the "info" files
in /proc.  For example,

    /proc/acpi/button/PWRF/info:
    -type:		Power Button (FF)
    +type:		Power Button

I don't think there's anything meaningful user-space can do by
knowing whether a button is a control method or a fixed hardware
button, so nobody should be looking at the FF/CM.

5d38258ec0 ACPI battery: fix async boot oops
> BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at (null)

What happens is that the battery module's init sections are being freed
before the async callback (which was marked __init) has run. This theory
is supported by the fact that the bad RIP value is a vmalloc address.

The immediate fix is to make this a non-init call.

(A better long-term fix is of course to wait with init-section unloading
until a module's async initcalls have been run, which would allow us to
discard this function which is still only run once, after all. Perhaps a
new async_initcall() function for the async/module API, if this is needed
for other modules in the future?)

2c03d07ad5 hwmon: Add Asus ATK0110 support
Asus boards have an ACPI interface for interacting with the hwmon (fan,
temperatures, voltages) subsystem; this driver exposes the relevant
information via the standard sysfs interface.

There are two different ACPI interfaces:
- an old one (based on RVLT/RFAN/RTMP)
- a new one (GGRP/GITM)
Both may be present but there a few cases (my board, sigh) where the
new interface is just an empty stub; the driver defaults to the old one
when both are present.
The old interface has received a considerable testing, but I'm still
awaiting confirmation from my tester that the new one is working as
expected (hence the debug code is still enabled).

Currently all the attributes are read-only, though a (partial) control
should be possible with a bit more work.

  [<ffffffff80276ce1>] sys_delete_module+0x161/0x250

We need to grab a reference to the parent PCI bus, which will pin
the bus and prevent it from being released until pci_slot is unloaded.

7ec0a72907 ACPI: processor: use .notify method instead of installing handler directly
This patch adds a .notify() method.  The presence of .notify() causes
Linux/ACPI to manage event handlers and notify handlers on our behalf,
so we don't have to install and remove them ourselves.

373cfc360e ACPI: button: use .notify method instead of installing handler directly
This patch adds a .notify() method.  The presence of .notify() causes
Linux/ACPI to manage event handlers and notify handlers on our behalf,
so we don't have to install and remove them ourselves.

Note that events from fixed hardware buttons now show up as a special
notify event, so to preserve user-space backward compatibility, we
convert that back to ACPI_BUTTON_NOTIFY_STATUS.
