Linus Torvalds c0f486fde3 More ACPI and power management updates for 3.19-rc1
- Fix a regression in leds-gpio introduced by a recent commit that
    inadvertently changed the name of one of the properties used by
    the driver (Fabio Estevam).
 
  - Fix a regression in the ACPI backlight driver introduced by a
    recent fix that missed one special case that had to be taken
    into account (Aaron Lu).
 
  - Drop the level of some new kernel messages from the ACPI core
    introduced by a recent commit to KERN_DEBUG which they should
    have used from the start and drop some other unuseful KERN_ERR
    messages printed by ACPI (Rafael J Wysocki).
 
  - Revert an incorrect commit modifying the cpupower tool
    (Prarit Bhargava).
 
  - Fix two regressions introduced by recent commits in the OPP
    library and clean up some existing minor issues in that code
    (Viresh Kumar).
 
  - Continue to replace CONFIG_PM_RUNTIME with CONFIG_PM throughout
    the tree (or drop it where that can be done) in order to make
    it possible to eliminate CONFIG_PM_RUNTIME (Rafael J Wysocki,
    Ulf Hansson, Ludovic Desroches).  There will be one more
    "CONFIG_PM_RUNTIME removal" batch after this one, because some
    new uses of it have been introduced during the current merge
    window, but that should be sufficient to finally get rid of it.
 
  - Make the ACPI EC driver more robust against race conditions
    related to GPE handler installation failures (Lv Zheng).
 
  - Prevent the ACPI device PM core code from attempting to
    disable GPEs that it has not enabled which confuses ACPICA
    and makes it report errors unnecessarily (Rafael J Wysocki).
 
  - Add a "force" command line switch to the intel_pstate driver
    to make it possible to override the blacklisting of some
    systems in that driver if needed (Ethan Zhao).
 
  - Improve intel_pstate code documentation and add a MAINTAINERS
    entry for it (Kristen Carlson Accardi).
 
  - Make the ACPI fan driver create cooling device interfaces
    witn names that reflect the IDs of the ACPI device objects
    they are associated with, except for "generic" ACPI fans
    (PNP ID "PNP0C0B").  That's necessary for user space thermal
    management tools to be able to connect the fans with the
    parts of the system they are supposed to be cooling properly.
    From Srinivas Pandruvada.

Merge tag 'pm+acpi-3.19-rc1-2' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rafael/linux-pm

Pull more ACPI and power management updates from Rafael Wysocki:
 "These are regression fixes (leds-gpio, ACPI backlight driver,
  operating performance points library, ACPI device enumeration
  messages, cpupower tool), other bug fixes (ACPI EC driver, ACPI device
  PM), some cleanups in the operating performance points (OPP)
  framework, continuation of CONFIG_PM_RUNTIME elimination, a couple of
  minor intel_pstate driver changes, a new MAINTAINERS entry for it and
  an ACPI fan driver change needed for better support of thermal
  management in user space.

  Specifics:

   - Fix a regression in leds-gpio introduced by a recent commit that
     inadvertently changed the name of one of the properties used by the
     driver (Fabio Estevam).

   - Fix a regression in the ACPI backlight driver introduced by a
