Two functions defined in device_pm.c, acpi_dev_pm_add_dependent()
and acpi_dev_pm_remove_dependent(), have no callers and may be
dropped, so drop them.
Moreover, they are the only functions adding entries to and removing
entries from the power_dependent list in struct acpi_device, so drop
that list too.

The mechanism causing devices depending on a given power resource
(that is, devices that can be in D0 only if that power resource is
on) to be resumed automatically when the power resource is turned
on (and their "inferred" power state becomes D0 as a result) is
inherently racy and in fact unnecessary.
It is racy, because if the power resource is turned on and then
immediately off, the device resume triggered by the first transition
to "on" may still happen, causing the power resource to be turned
on again. That again will trigger the "resume of dependent devices"
mechanism, but if the devices in question are not in use, they will
be suspended in the meantime causing the power resource to be turned
off. However, the "resume of dependent devices" will next resume
them again and so on. In some cases (USB port PM in particular) that
leads to an endless busy loop of flipping the resource on and off
continuously.
It is needless, because whoever turns a power resource on will most
likely turn it off at some point and the devices that go into "D0"
as a result of turning it on will then go back into D3cold
(generally, the state they were in before).
Moreover, turning on all power resources a device needs to go into
D0 is not sufficient for a full transition into D0 in general.
Namely, _PS0 may need to be executed in addition to that in some
cases. This means that the whole rationale of the "resume of
dependent devices" mechanism was incorrect to begin with and it's
best to remove it entirely.

This patch does two things,
1. enumerate the ideapad device node to platform bus.
2. convert the current driver from ACPI bus to platform bus.
Note, with this patch, the platform device node created by ACPI,
with the name VPC2004:00, is used as the parent device of
the input, backlight, rfkill sysfs class device.
Plus the ideapad_platform private sysfs attributes,
i.e. camera_power and fan_mode, are also moved to the new
platform device node.
The previous platform device node "ideapad" is removed.

Current ACPI tables in initrd is limited to 10, that is too small.
64 should be good enough as we have 35 sigs and could have several
SSDT.
Two problems in current code prevent us from increasing limit:
1. The cpio file info array is put in stack, as every element is 32
bytes, could run out of stack if we have that array size to 64.
We can move it out from stack, make it global and put it into the
__initdata section.
2. early_ioremap() only can remap 256k one time. Current code maps
10 tables at a time. If we increased that limit, the whole size
could be more than 256k, so early_ioremap() would fail with that.
We can map chunks one by one during copying, instead of mapping
all of them together.

1) ACPI-based PCI hotplug (ACPIPHP) fixes related to spurious events
After the recent ACPIPHP changes we've seen some interesting breakage
on a system that triggers device check notifications during boot for
non-existing devices. Although those notifications are really
spurious, we should be able to deal with them nevertheless and that
shouldn't introduce too much overhead. Four commits to make that
work properly.
2) Memory hotplug and hibernation mutual exclusion rework
This was maent to be a cleanup, but it happens to fix a classical
ABBA deadlock between system suspend/hibernation and ACPI memory
hotplug which is possible if they are started roughly at the same
time. Three commits rework memory hotplug so that it doesn't
acquire pm_mutex and make hibernation use device_hotplug_lock
which prevents it from racing with memory hotplug.
3) ACPI Intel LPSS (Low-Power Subsystem) driver crash fix
The ACPI LPSS driver crashes during boot on Apple Macbook Air with
Haswell that has slightly unusual BIOS configuration in which one
of the LPSS device's _CRS method doesn't return all of the information
expected by the driver. Fix from Mika Westerberg, for stable.
4) ACPICA fix related to Store->ArgX operation
AML interpreter fix for obscure breakage that causes AML to be
executed incorrectly on some machines (observed in practice). From
Bob Moore.
5) ACPI core fix for PCI ACPI device objects lookup
There still are cases in which there is more than one ACPI device
object matching a given PCI device and we don't choose the one that
the BIOS expects us to choose, so this makes the lookup take more
criteria into account in those cases.
6) Fix to prevent cpuidle from crashing in some rare cases
If the result of cpuidle_get_driver() is NULL, which can happen on
some systems, cpuidle_driver_ref() will crash trying to use that
pointer and the Daniel Fu's fix prevents that from happening.
7) cpufreq fixes related to CPU hotplug
Stephen Boyd reported a number of concurrency problems with cpufreq
related to CPU hotplug which are addressed by a series of fixes
from Srivatsa S Bhat and Viresh Kumar.
8) cpufreq fix for time conversion in time_in_state attribute
Time conversion carried out by cpufreq when user space attempts to
read /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu*/cpufreq/stats/time_in_state won't
work correcty if cputime_t doesn't map directly to jiffies. Fix
from Andreas Schwab.
9) Revert of a troublesome cpufreq commit
Commit 7c30ed5 (cpufreq: make sure frequency transitions are
serialized) was intended to address some known concurrency problems
in cpufreq related to the ordering of transitions, but unfortunately
it introduced several problems of its own, so I decided to revert it
now and address the original problems later in a more robust way.
10) Intel Haswell CPU models for intel_pstate from Nell Hardcastle.
11) cpufreq fixes related to system suspend/resume
The recent cpufreq changes that made it preserve CPU sysfs attributes
over suspend/resume cycles introduced a possible NULL pointer
dereference that caused it to crash during the second attempt to
suspend. Three commits from Srivatsa S Bhat fix that problem and a
couple of related issues.
12) cpufreq locking fix
cpufreq_policy_restore() should acquire the lock for reading, but
it acquires it for writing. Fix from Lan Tianyu.

Merge tag 'pm+acpi-fixes-3.12-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rafael/linux-pm
Pull ACPI and power management fixes from Rafael Wysocki:
"All of these commits are fixes that have emerged recently and some of
them fix bugs introduced during this merge window.
Specifics:
1) ACPI-based PCI hotplug (ACPIPHP) fixes related to spurious events
After the recent ACPIPHP changes we've seen some interesting
breakage on a system that triggers device check notifications
during boot for non-existing devices. Although those
notifications are really spurious, we should be able to deal with
them nevertheless and that shouldn't introduce too much overhead.
Four commits to make that work properly.
2) Memory hotplug and hibernation mutual exclusion rework
This was maent to be a cleanup, but it happens to fix a classical
ABBA deadlock between system suspend/hibernation and ACPI memory
hotplug which is possible if they are started roughly at the same
time. Three commits rework memory hotplug so that it doesn't
acquire pm_mutex and make hibernation use device_hotplug_lock
which prevents it from racing with memory hotplug.
3) ACPI Intel LPSS (Low-Power Subsystem) driver crash fix
The ACPI LPSS driver crashes during boot on Apple Macbook Air with
Haswell that has slightly unusual BIOS configuration in which one
of the LPSS device's _CRS method doesn't return all of the
information expected by the driver. Fix from Mika Westerberg, for
stable.
4) ACPICA fix related to Store->ArgX operation
AML interpreter fix for obscure breakage that causes AML to be
executed incorrectly on some machines (observed in practice).
From Bob Moore.
5) ACPI core fix for PCI ACPI device objects lookup
There still are cases in which there is more than one ACPI device
object matching a given PCI device and we don't choose the one
that the BIOS expects us to choose, so this makes the lookup take
more criteria into account in those cases.
6) Fix to prevent cpuidle from crashing in some rare cases
If the result of cpuidle_get_driver() is NULL, which can happen on
some systems, cpuidle_driver_ref() will crash trying to use that
pointer and the Daniel Fu's fix prevents that from happening.
7) cpufreq fixes related to CPU hotplug
Stephen Boyd reported a number of concurrency problems with
cpufreq related to CPU hotplug which are addressed by a series of
fixes from Srivatsa S Bhat and Viresh Kumar.
8) cpufreq fix for time conversion in time_in_state attribute
Time conversion carried out by cpufreq when user space attempts to
read /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu*/cpufreq/stats/time_in_state
won't work correcty if cputime_t doesn't map directly to jiffies.
Fix from Andreas Schwab.
9) Revert of a troublesome cpufreq commit
Commit 7c30ed5 (cpufreq: make sure frequency transitions are
serialized) was intended to address some known concurrency
problems in cpufreq related to the ordering of transitions, but
unfortunately it introduced several problems of its own, so I
decided to revert it now and address the original problems later
in a more robust way.
10) Intel Haswell CPU models for intel_pstate from Nell Hardcastle.
11) cpufreq fixes related to system suspend/resume
The recent cpufreq changes that made it preserve CPU sysfs
attributes over suspend/resume cycles introduced a possible NULL
pointer dereference that caused it to crash during the second
attempt to suspend. Three commits from Srivatsa S Bhat fix that
problem and a couple of related issues.
12) cpufreq locking fix
cpufreq_policy_restore() should acquire the lock for reading, but
it acquires it for writing. Fix from Lan Tianyu"
