bc76f90b8a ACPI battery: work around negative s16 battery current on Acer
Acer Aspire 8930G laptops (and possibly others) report the battery current
as a 16-bit signed negative when it is charging.  It also reports it as
0x10000 when the current is 0.  This patch adds a quirk for this which
takes the absolute value of the reported current cast to an s16.  This is
a DSDT bug present in the latest BIOS revision (the EC register is 16 bits
signed and the DSDT attempts to take the 16-bit two's complement of this,
which works for discharge but not charge.  It also breaks zero values
because a 32-bit register is used and the high bits aren't thrown away).

I've enabled this for all Acer systems which report in mA units.  This
should be safe since it won't break compliant systems unless they report a
current above 32A, which is insane.  The patch also detects the valid
32-bit value -1, which indicates unknown status, and does not attempt the
fix in that case (note that this does not conflict with 16-bit -1, which
is 65535 as read normally and gets translated to 1mA).

a5fe1a03f7 ACPICA: fix leak of acpi_os_validate_address
http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=13620

If the dynamic region is created and added to resource list over and over again,
it has the potential to be a memory leak by growing the list every time.

This patch fixes the memory leak, as below

1) add a new field "count" to struct acpi_res_list.

   When inserting, if the region(addr, len) is already in the resource
   list, we just increase "count", otherwise, the region is inserted
   with count=1.

   When deleting, the "count" is decreased, if it's decreased to 0,
   the region is deleted from the resource list.

   With "count", the region with same address and length can only be
   inserted to the resource list once, so prevent potential memory leak.

2) add a new function acpi_os_invalidate_address, which is called when
   region is deleted.

2a908002c7 ACPI processor: force throttling state when BIOS returns incorrect value
If the BIOS reports an invalid throttling state (which seems to be
fairly common after system boot), a reset is done to state T0.
Because of a check in acpi_processor_get_throttling_ptc(), the reset
never actually gets executed, which results in the error reoccurring
on every access of for example /proc/acpi/processor/CPU0/throttling.

Add a 'force' option to acpi_processor_set_throttling() to ensure
the reset really takes effect.

Addresses http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=13389

This patch, together with the next one, fixes a regression introduced in
2.6.30, listed on the regression list. They have been available for 2.5
months now in bugzilla, but have not been picked up, despite various
reminders and without any reason given.

Google shows that numerous people are hitting this issue. The issue is in
itself relatively minor, but the bug in the code is clear.

The patches have been in all my kernels and today testing has shown that
throttling works correctly with the patches applied when the system
overheats (http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=13918#c14).

f833bab87f clockevent: Prevent dead lock on clockevents_lock
Currently clockevents_notify() is called with interrupts enabled at
some places and interrupts disabled at some other places.

This results in a deadlock in this scenario.

cpu A holds clockevents_lock in clockevents_notify() with irqs enabled
cpu B waits for clockevents_lock in clockevents_notify() with irqs disabled
cpu C doing set_mtrr() which will try to rendezvous of all the cpus.

This will result in C and A come to the rendezvous point and waiting
for B. B is stuck forever waiting for the spinlock and thus not
reaching the rendezvous point.

Fix the clockevents code so that clockevents_lock is taken with
interrupts disabled and thus avoid the above deadlock.

Also call lapic_timer_propagate_broadcast() on the destination cpu so
that we avoid calling smp_call_function() in the clockevents notifier
chain.

This issue left us wondering if we need to change the MTRR rendezvous
logic to use stop machine logic (instead of smp_call_function) or add
a check in spinlock debug code to see if there are other spinlocks
which gets taken under both interrupts enabled/disabled conditions.

74b5820808 ACPI: bind workqueues to CPU 0 to avoid SMI corruption
On some machines, a software-initiated SMI causes corruption unless the
SMI runs on CPU 0.  An SMI can be initiated by any AML, but typically it's
done in GPE-related methods that are run via workqueues, so we can avoid
the known corruption cases by binding the workqueues to CPU 0.

8e0af5141a ACPI: create Processor Aggregator Device driver
ACPI 4.0 created the logical "processor aggregator device" as
a mechinism for platforms to ask the OS to force otherwise busy
processors to enter (power saving) idle.

The intent is to lower power consumption to ride-out
transient electrical and thermal emergencies,
rather than powering off the server.

On platforms that can save more power/performance via P-states,
the platform will first exhaust P-states before forcing idle.
However, the relative benefit of P-states vs. idle states
is platform dependent, and thus this driver need not know
or care about it.

This driver does not use the kernel's CPU hot-plug mechanism
because after the transient emergency is over, the system must
be returned to its normal state, and hotplug would permanently
break both cpusets and binding.

So to force idle, the driver creates a power saving thread.
The scheduler will migrate the thread to the preferred CPU.
The thread has max priority and has SCHED_RR policy,
so it can occupy one CPU.  To save power, the thread will
invoke the deep C-state entry instructions.

To avoid starvation, the thread will sleep 5% of the time
time for every second (current RT scheduler has threshold
to avoid starvation, but if other CPUs are idle,
the CPU can borrow CPU timer from other,
which makes the mechanism not work here)

Vaidyanathan Srinivasan has proposed scheduler enhancements
to allow injecting idle time into the system.  This driver doesn't
depend on those enhancements, but could cut over to them
when they are available.

Peter Z. does not favor upstreaming this driver until
the those scheduler enhancements are in place.  However,
we favor upstreaming this driver now because it is useful
now, and can be enhanced over time.

ACPI during resume if SCI_EN is not set") and also the issue with

86886e55b2 x86, intel_txt: Intel TXT Sx shutdown support
Support for graceful handling of sleep states (S3/S4/S5) after an Intel(R) TXT launch.

Without this patch, attempting to place the system in one of the ACPI sleep
states (S3/S4/S5) will cause the TXT hardware to treat this as an attack and
will cause a system reset, with memory locked.  Not only may the subsequent
memory scrub take some time, but the platform will be unable to enter the
requested power state.

This patch calls back into the tboot so that it may properly and securely clean
up system state and clear the secrets-in-memory flag, after which it will place
the system into the requested sleep state using ACPI information passed by the kernel.

412af97838 ACPI: video: prevent NULL deref in acpi_get_pci_dev()
ref: http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel/857228/focus=857468

When the ACPI video driver initializes, it does a namespace walk
looking for for supported devices. When we find an appropriate
handle, we walk up the ACPI tree looking for a PCI root bus, and
then walk back down the PCI bus, assuming that every device
inbetween is a P2P bridge.

This assumption is not correct, and is reported broken on at
least:

	Dell Latitude E6400
	ThinkPad X61
	Dell XPS M1330

Add a NULL deref check to prevent boot panics.

cf745ec7a1 ACPI: EC: remove .stop() method
This patch folds the .stop() method into .remove().

acpi_ec_stop() is only called via acpi_device_probe() and
acpi_device_remove(), and in both cases it is called immediately before
acpi_ec_remove(), so there's no need to have it be a separate method.

80f20fef6a ACPI: memory hotplug: remove .start() method
This patch folds the .start() method into .add().

The .start() method is called in two paths: boot-time device enumeration
and run-time node addition, currently via container_device_add().  In both
cases, .start() is called immediately after .add(), so there's no reason
to make them separate methods.
