Merge tag 'acpi-5.6-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rafael/linux-pm
Pull ACPI updates from Rafael Wysocki:
"These update the ACPICA code in the kernel to the most recent upstream
revision (20200110), add new hardware support to a handful of ACPI
drivers, make the ACPI fan driver expose power states information for
fans, add some more quirks, fix bugs and clean up assorted things.
Specifics:
- Update the ACPICA code in the kernel to upstream revision 20200110
including:
- Update of copyright notices to 2020 (Bob Moore).
- Dispatcher fix to always generate buffer objects for the ASL
create_field() operator (Maximilian Luz).
- Debugger cleanup (Colin Ian King).
- Disassembler change to create buffer fields in
ACPI_PARSE_LOAD_PASS1 (Erik Kaneda).
- UNIX line ending support for non-windows builds in acpisrc (Erik
Kaneda).
- Update the list of ACPICA maintainers (Rafael Wysocki).
- Add Intel Tiger Lake ACPI device IDs to the ACPI DPTF, ACPI fan,
int340x_thermal and intel-hid drivers (Gayatri Kammela).
- Make the ACPI fan driver create additional sysfs attributes to
expose power states information for fans (Srinivas Pandruvada).
- Fix up the ACPI battery driver to deal with unexpected battery
capacity information in a better way (Hans de Goede).
- Add ACPI backlight quirks for Lenovo E41-25/45 and MSI MS-7721
boards (Aaron Ma, Hans de Goede).
- Add DMI quirk for Razer Blade Stealth 13 late 2019 lid switch to
the ACPI button driver (Jason Ekstrand).
- Drop TIMER_DEFERRABLE from the GHES polling mode timer function
flags to make it run precisely at the configured time (Bhaskar
Upadhaya).
- Fix race condition related to the reference counting of query
handlers in the ACPI EC driver (Rafael Wysocki).
- Fix ACPI tools build issue (Zhengyuan Liu).
- Replace dma_request_slave_channel() with dma_request_chan() in the
firmware guide documentation for ACPI (Peter Ujfalusi).
- Fix typo in a comment and clean up function parameter data type
inconsistencies (Kacper PiwiĆski, Tian Tao)"
