Linus Torvalds 6d90508121 ACPI updates for 5.7-rc1
- Update the ACPICA code in the kernel to the 20200214 upstream
    release including:
 
    * Fix to re-enable the sleep button after wakeup (Anchal Agarwal).
    * Fixes for mistakes in comments and typos (Bob Moore).
    * ASL-ASL+ converter updates (Erik Kaneda).
    * Type casting cleanups (Sven Barth).
 
  - Clean up the intialization of the EC driver and eliminate some
    dead code from it (Rafael Wysocki).
 
  - Clean up the quirk tables in the AC and battery drivers (Hans de
    Goede).
 
  - Fix the global lock handling on x86 to ignore unspecified bit
    positions in the global lock field (Jan Engelhardt).
 
  - Add a new "tiny" driver for ACPI button devices exposed by VMs to
    guest kernels to send signals directly to init (Josh Triplett).
 
  - Add a kernel parameter to disable ACPI BGRT on x86 (Alex Hung).
 
  - Make the ACPI PCI host bridge and fan drivers use scnprintf() to
    avoid potential buffer overflows (Takashi Iwai).
 
  - Clean up assorted pieces of code:
 
    * Reorder "asmlinkage" to make g++ happy (Alexey Dobriyan).
    * Drop unneeded variable initialization (Colin Ian King).
    * Add missing __acquires/__releases annotations (Jules Irenge).
    * Replace list_for_each_safe() with list_for_each_entry_safe()
      (chenqiwu).

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
