<content type='text'>
commit b27759f880018b0cd43543dc94c921341b64b5ec upstream.

Commit c7f486567c1d0acd2e4166c47069835b9f75e77b
(PCI PM: PCIe PME root port service driver) causes the native PCIe
PME signaling to be used by default, if the BIOS allows the kernel to
control the standard configuration registers of PCIe root ports.
However, the native PCIe PME is coupled to the native PCIe hotplug
and calling pcie_pme_acpi_setup() makes some BIOSes expect that
the native PCIe hotplug will be used as well.  That, in turn, causes
problems to appear on systems where the PCIe hotplug driver is not
loaded.  The usual symptom, as reported by Jaroslav Kameník and
others, is that the ACPI GPE associated with PCIe hotplug keeps
firing continuously causing kacpid to take substantial percentage
of CPU time.

To work around this issue, change the default so that the native
PCIe PME signaling is only used if directly requested with the help
of the pcie_pme= command line switch.

Fixes https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=15924 , which is
a listed regression from 2.6.33.

<content type='text'>
According to libata-core correctly around line 6572:

	/* parse id */
	p = strchr(id, '.');
	...

the optional device is separated from the port in the libata.force ID
by a point or dot instead of by a colon.

Fix documentation to reflect this.

Now that we check for physically present processors before blindly
evaluating _PDC, we no longer need to maintain a DMI opt-in table
nor a kernel param.
