e8707b340f ACPICA: New: Validation for predefined ACPI methods/objects
Validates predefined ACPI objects that appear in the namespace,
at the time they are evaluated. The argument count and the type of
the returned object are validated. The purpose of this validation
is to detect problems with the BIOS-exposed predefined ACPI objects
before the results are returned to the ACPI-related drivers.

848e4c68c4 libata: transfer EHI control flags to slave ehc.i
ATA_EHI_NO_AUTOPSY and ATA_EHI_QUIET are used to control the behavior
of EH.  As only the master link is visible outside EH, these flags are
set only for the master link although they should also apply to the
slave link, which causes spurious EH messages during probe and
suspend/resume.

This patch transfers those two flags to slave ehc.i before performing
slave autopsy and reporting.

In preparation for cleaning up the various hotplug drivers
such that they don't have to manage their own 'name' parameters
anymore, we provide the following convenience functions:

	pci_slot_name()
	hotplug_slot_name()

These helpers will be used by individual hotplug drivers.

828f37683e PCI: update pci_create_slot() to take a 'hotplug' param
Slot detection drivers can co-exist with hotplug drivers. The names
of the detected/claimed slots may be different depending on module
load order.

For legacy reasons, we need to allow hotplug drivers to override
the slot name if a detection driver is loaded first (and they find
the same slots).

Creating and overriding slot names should be an atomic operation,
otherwise you get a locking nightmare as various drivers race to
call pci_create_slot().

pci_create_slot() is already serialized by grabbing the pci_bus_sem.

We update the API and add a 'hotplug' param, which is:

	set if the caller is a hotplug driver
	NULL if the caller is a detection driver

pci_create_slot() does not actually use the 'hotplug' parameter in this
patch. A later patch will add the logic that uses it.

1359f2701b PCI Hotplug core: add 'name' param pci_hp_register interface
Update pci_hp_register() to take a const char *name parameter.

The motivation for this is to clean up the individual hotplug
drivers so that each one does not have to manage its own name.
The PCI core should be the place where we manage the name.

We update the interface and all callsites first, in a
"no functional change" manner, and clean up the drivers later.

8dd7f8036c PCI: add support for function level reset
Sometimes, it's necessary to enable software's ability to quiesce and
reset endpoint hardware with function-level granularity, so provide
support for it.

The patch implement Function Level Reset(FLR) feature following PCI-e
spec. And this is the first step. We would add more generic method, like
D0/D3, to allow more devices support this function.

The patch contains two functions. pcie_reset_function() is the new
driver API, and, contains some action to quiesce a device.  The other
function is a helper:  pcie_execute_reset_function() just executes the
reset for a particular device function.

Current the usage model is in KVM. Function reset is necessary for
assigning device to a guest, or moving it between partitions.

For Function Level Reset(FLR), please refer to PCI Express spec chapter
6.6.2.

f5adfaa372 ACPI: Add "acpi.power_nocheck=1" to disable power state check in power transition
Maybe the incorrect power state is returned on the bogus bios, which
is different with the real power state. For example: the bios returns D0
state and the real power state is D3. OS expects to set the device to D0
state. In  such case if OS uses the power state returned by the BIOS and
checks the device power state very strictly in power transition, the device
can't be transited to the correct power state.

   So the boot option of "acpi.power_nocheck=1" is added to avoid checking
the device power in the course of device power transition.

a30d46c042 mfd: twl4030 IRQ handling update
- Move it into a separate file; clean and streamline it
 - Restructure the init code for reuse during secondary dispatch
 - Support both levels (primary, secondary) of IRQ dispatch
 - Use a workqueue for irq mask/unmask and trigger configuration

Code for two subchips currently share that secondary handler code.
One is the power subchip; its IRQs are now handled by this core,
courtesy of this patch.  The other is the GPIO module, which will
be supported through a later patch.

There are also minor changes to the header file, mostly related
to GPIO support; nothing yet in mainline cares about those.  A
few references to OMAP-specific symbols are disabled; when they
can all be removed, the TWL4030 support ceases being OMAP-specific.

0d557dc97f workqueue: introduce create_rt_workqueue
create_rt_workqueue will create a real time prioritized workqueue.
This is needed for the conversion of stop_machine to a workqueue based
implementation.
This patch adds yet another parameter to __create_workqueue_key to tell
it that we want an rt workqueue.
However it looks like we rather should have something like "int type"
instead of singlethread, freezable and rt.

67e67ceaac core_param() for genuinely core kernel parameters
There are a lot of one-liner uses of __setup() in the kernel: they're
cumbersome and not queryable (definitely not settable) via /sys.  Yet
it's ugly to simplify them to module_param(), because by default that
inserts a prefix of the module name (usually filename).

So, introduce a "core_param".  The parameter gets no prefix, but
appears in /sys/module/kernel/parameters/ (if non-zero perms arg).  I
thought about using the name "core", but that's more common than
"kernel".  And if you create a module called "kernel", you will die
a horrible death.
