Pull power management and ACPI updates from Rafael Wysocki:
 "The rework of backlight interface selection API from Hans de Goede
  stands out from the number of commits and the number of affected
  places perspective.  The cpufreq core fixes from Viresh Kumar are
  quite significant too as far as the number of commits goes and because
  they should reduce CPU online/offline overhead quite a bit in the
  majority of cases.

  From the new featues point of view, the ACPICA update (to upstream
  revision 20150515) adding support for new ACPI 6 material to ACPICA is
  the one that matters the most as some new significant features will be
  based on it going forward.  Also included is an update of the ACPI
  device power management core to follow ACPI 6 (which in turn reflects
  the Windows' device PM implementation), a PM core extension to support
  wakeup interrupts in a more generic way and support for the ACPI _CCA
  device configuration object.

  The rest is mostly fixes and cleanups all over and some documentation
  updates, including new DT bindings for Operating Performance Points.

  There is one fix for a regression introduced in the 4.1 cycle, but it
  adds quite a number of lines of code, it wasn't really ready before
  Thursday and you were on vacation, so I refrained from pushing it on
  the last minute for 4.1.

  Specifics:

   - ACPICA update to upstream revision 20150515 including basic support
     for ACPI 6 features: new ACPI tables introduced by ACPI 6 (STAO,
     XENV, WPBT, NFIT, IORT), changes related to the other tables (DTRM,
     FADT, LPIT, MADT), new predefined names (_BTH, _CR3, _DSD, _LPI,
     _MTL, _PRR, _RDI, _RST, _TFP, _TSN), fixes and cleanups (Bob Moore,
     Lv Zheng).

   - ACPI device power management core code update to follow ACPI 6
     which reflects the ACPI device power management implementation in
     Windows (Rafael J Wysocki).

   - rework of the backlight interface selection logic to reduce the
     number of kernel command line options and improve the handling of
     DMI quirks that may be involved in that and to make the code
     generally more straightforward (Hans de Goede).

   - fixes for the ACPI Embedded Controller (EC) driver related to the
     handling of EC transactions (Lv Zheng).

   - fix for a regression related to the ACPI resources management and
     resulting from a recent change of ACPI initialization code ordering
     (Rafael J Wysocki).

   - fix for a system initialization regression related to ACPI
     introduced during the 3.14 cycle and caused by running the code
     that switches the platform over to the ACPI mode too early in the
     initialization sequence (Rafael J Wysocki).

   - support for the ACPI _CCA device configuration object related to
     DMA cache coherence (Suravee Suthikulpanit).

   - ACPI/APEI fixes and cleanups (Jiri Kosina, Borislav Petkov).

   - ACPI battery driver cleanups (Luis Henriques, Mathias Krause).

   - ACPI processor driver cleanups (Hanjun Guo).

   - cleanups and documentation update related to the ACPI device
     properties interface based on _DSD (Rafael J Wysocki).

   - ACPI device power management fixes (Rafael J Wysocki).

   - assorted cleanups related to ACPI (Dominik Brodowski, Fabian
     Frederick, Lorenzo Pieralisi, Mathias Krause, Rafael J Wysocki).

   - fix for a long-standing issue causing General Protection Faults to
     be generated occasionally on return to user space after resume from
     ACPI-based suspend-to-RAM on 32-bit x86 (Ingo Molnar).

   - fix to make the suspend core code return -EBUSY consistently in all
     cases when system suspend is aborted due to wakeup detection (Ruchi
     Kandoi).

   - support for automated device wakeup IRQ handling allowing drivers
     to make their PM support more starightforward (Tony Lindgren).

   - new tracepoints for suspend-to-idle tracing and rework of the
     prepare/complete callbacks tracing in the PM core (Todd E Brandt,
     Rafael J Wysocki).

   - wakeup sources framework enhancements (Jin Qian).

   - new macro for noirq system PM callbacks (Grygorii Strashko).

   - assorted cleanups related to system suspend (Rafael J Wysocki).

   - cpuidle core cleanups to make the code more efficient (Rafael J
     Wysocki).

   - powernv/pseries cpuidle driver update (Shilpasri G Bhat).

   - cpufreq core fixes related to CPU online/offline that should reduce
     the overhead of these operations quite a bit, unless the CPU in
     question is physically going away (Viresh Kumar, Saravana Kannan).

   - serialization of cpufreq governor callbacks to avoid race
     conditions in some cases (Viresh Kumar).

   - intel_pstate driver fixes and cleanups (Doug Smythies, Prarit
     Bhargava, Joe Konno).

     Points (Viresh Kumar).

   - updates for the common clock operations support code in the PM core
     (Rajendra Nayak, Geert Uytterhoeven).

   - PM domains core code update (Geert Uytterhoeven).

   - Intel Knights Landing support for the RAPL (Running Average Power
     Limit) power capping driver (Dasaratharaman Chandramouli).

   - fixes related to the floor frequency setting on Atom SoCs in the
     RAPL power capping driver (Ajay Thomas).

   - runtime PM framework documentation update (Ben Dooks).

   - cpupower tool fix (Herton R Krzesinski)"

Device Tree namespace link device ID
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The Device Tree protocol uses device indentification based on the "compatible"
property whose value is a string or an array of strings recognized as device
identifiers by drivers and the driver core.  The set of all those strings may be
regarded as a device indentification namespace analogous to the ACPI/PNP device
ID namespace.  Consequently, in principle it should not be necessary to allocate
a new (and arguably redundant) ACPI/PNP device ID for a devices with an existing
identification string in the Device Tree (DT) namespace, especially if that ID
is only needed to indicate that a given device is compatible with another one,
presumably having a matching driver in the kernel already.

In ACPI, the device identification object called _CID (Compatible ID) is used to
list the IDs of devices the given one is compatible with, but those IDs must
belong to one of the namespaces prescribed by the ACPI specification (see
Section 6.1.2 of ACPI 6.0 for details) and the DT namespace is not one of them.
Moreover, the specification mandates that either a _HID or an _ADR identificaion
object be present for all ACPI objects representing devices (Section 6.1 of ACPI
6.0).  For non-enumerable bus types that object must be _HID and its value must
be a device ID from one of the namespaces prescribed by the specification too.

The special DT namespace link device ID, PRP0001, provides a means to use the
existing DT-compatible device identification in ACPI and to satisfy the above
requirements following from the ACPI specification at the same time.  Namely,
if PRP0001 is returned by _HID, the ACPI subsystem will look for the
"compatible" property in the device object's _DSD and will use the value of that
property to identify the corresponding device in analogy with the original DT
device identification algorithm.  If the "compatible" property is not present
or its value is not valid, the device will not be enumerated by the ACPI
subsystem.  Otherwise, it will be enumerated automatically as a platform device
(except when an I2C or SPI link from the device to its parent is present, in
which case the ACPI core will leave the device enumeration to the parent's
driver) and the identification strings from the "compatible" property value will
be used to find a driver for the device along with the device IDs listed by _CID
(if present).

Analogously, if PRP0001 is present in the list of device IDs returned by _CID,
the identification strings listed by the "compatible" property value (if present
and valid) will be used to look for a driver matching the device, but in that
case their relative priority with respect to the other device IDs listed by
_HID and _CID depends on the position of PRP0001 in the _CID return package.
Specifically, the device IDs returned by _HID and preceding PRP0001 in the _CID
return package will be checked first.  Also in that case the bus type the device
will be enumerated to depends on the device ID returned by _HID.

It is valid to define device objects with a _HID returning PRP0001 and without
the "compatible" property in the _DSD or a _CID as long as one of their
ancestors provides a _DSD with a valid "compatible" property.  Such device
objects are then simply regarded as additional "blocks" providing hierarchical
configuration information to the driver of the composite ancestor device.

* Generic OPP Interface
Generic OPP (Operating Performance Points) Bindings
----------------------------------------------------

SoCs have a standard set of tuples consisting of frequency and
voltage pairs that the device will support per voltage domain. These
are called Operating Performance Points or OPPs.
Devices work at voltage-current-frequency combinations and some implementations
have the liberty of choosing these. These combinations are called Operating
Performance Points aka OPPs. This document defines bindings for these OPPs
applicable across wide range of devices. For illustration purpose, this document
uses CPU as a device.

This document contain multiple versions of OPP binding and only one of them
should be used per device.

Binding 1: operating-points

This binding only supports voltage-frequency pairs.

Binding 2: operating-points-v2
============================

* Property: operating-points-v2

Devices supporting OPPs must set their "operating-points-v2" property with
phandle to a OPP table in their DT node. The OPP core will use this phandle to
find the operating points for the device.

Devices may want to choose OPP tables at runtime and so can provide a list of
phandles here. But only *one* of them should be chosen at runtime. This must be
accompanied by a corresponding "operating-points-names" property, to uniquely
identify the OPP tables.

If required, this can be extended for SoC vendor specfic bindings. Such bindings
should be documented as Documentation/devicetree/bindings/power/<vendor>-opp.txt
and should have a compatible description like: "operating-points-v2-<vendor>".

Optional properties:
- operating-points-names: Names of OPP tables (required if multiple OPP
  tables are present), to uniquely identify them. The same list must be present
  for all the CPUs which are sharing clock/voltage rails and hence the OPP
  tables.

* OPP Table Node

This describes the OPPs belonging to a device. This node can have following
properties:

Required properties:
- compatible: Allow OPPs to express their compatibility. It should be:
  "operating-points-v2".

- OPP nodes: One or more OPP nodes describing voltage-current-frequency
  combinations. Their name isn't significant but their phandle can be used to
  reference an OPP.

Optional properties:
- opp-shared: Indicates that device nodes using this OPP Table Node's phandle
  switch their DVFS state together, i.e. they share clock/voltage/current lines.
  Missing property means devices have independent clock/voltage/current lines,
  but they share OPP tables.

- status: Marks the OPP table enabled/disabled.


* OPP Node

This defines voltage-current-frequency combinations along with other related
properties.

Required properties:
- opp-hz: Frequency in Hz

Optional properties:
- opp-microvolt: voltage in micro Volts.

  A single regulator's voltage is specified with an array of size one or three.
  Single entry is for target voltage and three entries are for <target min max>
  voltages.

  Entries for multiple regulators must be present in the same order as
  regulators are specified in device's DT node.

- opp-microamp: The maximum current drawn by the device in microamperes
  considering system specific parameters (such as transients, process, aging,
  maximum operating temperature range etc.) as necessary. This may be used to
  set the most efficient regulator operating mode.

  Should only be set if opp-microvolt is set for the OPP.

  Entries for multiple regulators must be present in the same order as
  regulators are specified in device's DT node. If this property isn't required
  for few regulators, then this should be marked as zero for them. If it isn't
  required for any regulator, then this property need not be present.

- clock-latency-ns: Specifies the maximum possible transition latency (in
  nanoseconds) for switching to this OPP from any other OPP.

- turbo-mode: Marks the OPP to be used only for turbo modes. Turbo mode is
  available on some platforms, where the device can run over its operating
  frequency for a short duration of time limited by the device's power, current
  and thermal limits.

- opp-suspend: Marks the OPP to be used during device suspend. Only one OPP in
  the table should have this.

- status: Marks the node enabled/disabled.

enabled earlier by calling pm_runtime_enable().

Note, if the device may execute pm_runtime calls during the probe (such as
if it is registers with a subsystem that may call back in) then the
pm_runtime_get_sync() call paired with a pm_runtime_put() call will be
appropriate to ensure that the device is not put back to sleep during the
probe. This can happen with systems such as the network device layer.

It may be desirable to suspend the device once ->probe() has finished.
Therefore the driver core uses the asyncronous pm_request_idle() to submit a
request to execute the subsystem-level idle callback for the device at that
