I have a machine here that's sending 0xD1 notifications on the video
device once every second or so. I have no idea why (it's a prototype,
it may be broken), but sending KEY_UNKNOWN is unhelpful and results in
the console becoming unusable. Let's not report keys unless we have
something useful to say about them.

On some old IBM workstations and desktop computers, the BIOS presents in the
DSDT an SMBus object that is missing the HID identifier that the i2c-scmi
driver looks for. Modify the ACPI device scan code to insert the missing HID
if it finds an IBM system with such an object.
Affected machines: IntelliStation Z20/Z30. Note that the i2c-i801 driver no
longer works on these machines because of ACPI resource conflicts.

Now that the early _PDC evaluation path knows how to correctly
evaluate _PDC on only physically present processors, there's no
need for the processor driver to evaluate it later when it loads.
To cover the hotplug case, push _PDC evaluation down into the

Detect if a processor is physically present before evaluating _PDC.
We want this because some BIOS will provide a _PDC even for processors
that are not present. These bogus _PDC methods then attempt to load
non-existent tables, which causes problems.

We've renamed the old processor_core.c to processor_driver.c, to
convey the idea that it can be built modular and has driver-like
bits.
Now let's re-create a processor_core.c for the bits needed
statically by the rest of the kernel. The contents of processor_pdc.c
are a good starting spot, so let's just rename that file and
complete our three card monte.

The ACPI processor driver can be built as a module. But it has
pieces of code that should always be built statically into the
kernel.
The plan is for processor_core.c to contain the static bits while
processor_driver.c contains the module-like bits.
Since the bulk of the code in the current processor_core.c is
module-like, first step is to rename the file to processor_driver.c
Next step will re-create processor_core.c and cherry-pick out
the static bits.

o Make acpi_enable_gpe() only check 'status' for runtime GPEs if
acpi_ev_enable_gpe() was actually called.
o Make acpi_disable_gpe() return 'status' returned by
acpi_ev_disable_gpe() and fix a bug where ACPI_GPE_TYPE_WAKE
and ACPI_GPE_TYPE_RUNTIME were exchanged by mistake.
o Add comments explaining why acpi_set_gpe() is used by the ACPI EC

Although the majority of PCI devices can generate PMEs that in
principle may be used to wake up devices suspended at run time,
platform support is generally necessary to convert PMEs into wake-up
events that can be delivered to the kernel. If ACPI is used for this
purpose, PME signals generated by a PCI device will trigger the ACPI
GPE associated with the device to generate an ACPI wake-up event that
we can set up a handler for, provided that everything is configured
correctly.
Unfortunately, the subset of PCI devices that have GPEs associated
with them is quite limited. The devices without dedicated GPEs have
to rely on the GPEs associated with other devices (in the majority of
cases their upstream bridges and, possibly, the root bridge) to
generate ACPI wake-up events in response to PME signals from them.
Add ACPI platform support for PCI PME wake-up:
o Add a framework making is possible to use ACPI system notify
handlers for run-time PM.
o Add new PCI platform callback ->run_wake() to struct
pci_platform_pm_ops allowing us to enable/disable the platform to
generate wake-up events for given device. Implemet this callback
for the ACPI platform.
o Define ACPI wake-up handlers for PCI devices and PCI root buses and
make the PCI-ACPI binding code register wake-up notifiers for all
PCI devices present in the ACPI tables.
o Add function pci_dev_run_wake() which can be used by PCI drivers to
check if given device is capable of generating wake-up events at
run time.

Currently it only is possible to install one system notify handler
per namespace node, but this is not enough for PCI run-time power
management, because we need to install power management notifiers for
devices that already have hotplug notifiers installed. While in
principle this could be handled at the PCI level, that would be
suboptimal due to the way in which the ACPI-based PCI hotplug code is
designed.
For this reason, modify ACPICA so that it is possible to install more
than one system notify handler per namespace node. Namely, make
acpi_install_notify_handler(), acpi_remove_notify_handler() and
acpi_ev_notify_dispatch() use a list of system notify handler objects
associated with a namespace node.
Make acpi_remove_notify_handler() call acpi_os_wait_events_complete()
upfront to avoid a situation in which concurrent instance of
acpi_remove_notify_handler() removes the handler from under us while
we're waiting for the event queues to flush.

ACPI GPEs may map to multiple devices. The current GPE interface
only provides a mechanism for enabling and disabling GPEs, making
it difficult to change the state of GPEs at runtime without extensive
cooperation between devices.
Add an API to allow devices to indicate whether or not they want
their device's GPE to be enabled for both runtime and wakeup events.
Remove the old GPE type handling entirely, which gets rid of various
quirks, like the implicit disabling with GPE type setting. This
requires a small amount of rework in order to ensure that non-wake
GPEs are enabled by default to preserve existing behaviour.

ACPI deep C-state entry had a long standing bug/missing feature, wherein we were sending
resched IPIs when an idle CPU is in mwait based deep C-state. Only mwait based C1 was using
the write to the monitored address to wake up mwait'ing CPU.
This patch changes the code to retain TS_POLLING bit if we are entering an mwait based
deep C-state.
The patch has been verified to reduce the number of resched IPIs in general and also
improves the performance/power on workloads with low system utilization (i.e., when mwait based
deep C-states are being used).

Earlier, Ingo Molnar posted a patch to make it so that the kernel would avoid
reading _PPC on his broken T60. Unfortunately, it seems that with Thomas
Renninger's patch last July to eliminate _PPC evaluations when the processor
driver loads, the kernel never actually reads _PPC at all! This is problematic
if you happen to boot your non-T60 computer in a state where the BIOS _wants_
_PPC to be something other than zero.
So, put the _PPC evaluation back into acpi_processor_get_performance_info if
ignore_ppc isn't 1.

Since the rewrite of the CPU idle governor in 2.6.32, two laptops have
surfaced where the BIOS advertises a C2 power state, but for some reason
this state is not functioning (as verified in both cases by powertop
before the patch in .32).
The old governor had the accidental behavior that if a non-working state
was chosen too many times, it would end up falling back to C1. The new
governor works differently and this accidental behavior is no longer
there; the result is a high temperature on these two machines.
This patch adds these 2 machines to the DMI table for C state anomalies;
by just not using C2 both these machines are better off (the TSC can be
used instead of the pm timer, giving a performance boost for example).

Commit fe06fba2 (ACPI: dock: add struct dock_station * directly
to platform device data) changed dock_add() to use the
platform_device_register_data() API.
We passed that interface a stack variable, which is kmemdup'ed
and assigned to the device's platform_data pointer.
Unfortunately, whatever random garbage is in the stack variable
gets coped during the kmemdup, and that leads to broken behavior.
Explicitly zero out the structure before passing it to the API.
This fixes the T41 docking button issue:

- || (element->type != ACPI_TYPE_BUFFER)
+ && (element->type != ACPI_TYPE_BUFFER)
delete the dead code.

In particular, several occurances of funny versions of 'success',
'unknown', 'therefore', 'acknowledge', 'argument', 'achieve', 'address',
'beginning', 'desirable', 'separate' and 'necessary' are fixed.

Some string messages misspell "separate"; this fixes them. No change in
functionality.

Callers (acpi_memhotplug.c, dock.c and others) check for the return
value of acpi_bus_add() and assume a valid device was returned in
case zero was returned.
Thus return -ENODEV if no device was found in acpi_bus_scan and
propagate this through acpi_bus_add and acpi_bus_start.
Also remove a confusing comment in acpiphp_glue.c, acpi_bus_scan
will and cannot invoke if acpi_bus_add returns no valid device.

If acpi_bus_add does not return a device and it's passed
to acpi_bus_start, bad things will happen:
BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at 0000000000000008
IP: [<ffffffff8128402d>] acpi_bus_start+0x14/0x24
...
[<ffffffffa008977a>] acpiphp_bus_add+0xba/0x130 [acpiphp]
[<ffffffffa008aa72>] enable_device+0x132/0x2ff [acpiphp]
[<ffffffffa0089b68>] acpiphp_enable_slot+0xb8/0x130 [acpiphp]
[<ffffffffa0089df7>] handle_hotplug_event_func+0x87/0x190 [acpiphp]
Next patch would make this NULL pointer check obsolete, but
better having one more than one missing...
