Linus Torvalds 8fa0db3a9b ACPI updates for 5.20-rc1
- Use facilities provided by the driver core and some additional
    helpers to handle the children of a given ACPI device object in
    multiple places instead of using the children and node list heads in
    struct acpi_device which is error prone (Rafael Wysocki).
 
  - Fix ACPI-related device reference counting issue in the hisi_lpc bus
    driver (Yang Yingliang).
 
  - Drop the children and node list heads that are not needed any more
    from struct acpi_device (Rafael Wysocki).
 
  - Drop driver member from struct acpi_device (Uwe Kleine-König).
 
  - Drop redundant check from acpi_device_remove() (Uwe Kleine-König).
 
  - Prepare the CPPC library for handling backwards-compatible future
    _CPC return package formats gracefully (Rafael Wysocki).
 
  - Clean up the ACPI EC driver after previous changes in it (Hans
    de Goede).
 
  - Drop leftover acpi_processor_get_limit_info() declaration (Riwen
    Lu).
 
  - Split out thermal initialization from ACPI PSS (Riwen Lu).
 
  - Annotate more functions in the ACPI CPU idle driver to live in the
    cpuidle section (Guilherme G. Piccoli).
 
  - Fix _EINJ vs "special purpose" EFI memory regions (Dan Williams).
 
  - Implement a better fix to avoid spamming the console with old error
    logs (Tony Luck).
 
  - Fix typo in a comment in the APEI code (Xiang wangx).
 
  - Save NVS memory during transitions into S3 on Lenovo G40-45 (Manyi
    Li).
 
  - Add support for upcoming AMD uPEP device ID AMDI008 to the ACPI
    suspend-to-idle driver for x86 platforms (Shyam Sundar S K).
 
  - Clean up checks related to the ACPI_FADT_LOW_POWER_S0 platform flag
    in the LPIT table driver and the suspend-to-idle driver for x86
    platforms (Rafael Wysocki).
 
  - Print information messages regarding declared LPS0 idle support in
    the platform firmware (Rafael Wysocki).

    Intel SoCs (huhai).
 
  - Fix ACS setup in the VIOT table parser (Eric Auger).
 
  - Skip IRQ override on AMD Zen platforms where it's harmful (Chuanhong
    Guo).

Pull ACPI updates from Rafael Wysocki:
 "These rework the handling of ACPI device objects to use the driver
  core facilities for managing child ones instead of some questionable
  home-grown ways without the requisite locking and reference counting,
  clean up the EC driver, improve suspend-to-idle handling on x86, add
  some systems to the ACPI backlight quirk list, fix some assorted
  issues, clean up code and improve documentation.

  Specifics:

   - Use facilities provided by the driver core and some additional
     helpers to handle the children of a given ACPI device object in
     multiple places instead of using the children and node list heads
     in struct acpi_device which is error prone (Rafael Wysocki).

README

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.
