Pull ACPICA updates from Rafael Wysocki:
 "Additional ACPICA material for v4.2-rc1

  This will update the ACPICA code in the kernel to upstream revision
  20150619 (a bug-fix release mostly including stable-candidate fixes)
  and restore an earlier ACPICA commit that had to be reverted due to a
  regression introduced by it (the regression is addressed by
  blacklisting the only known system affected by it to date).

  The only new feature added by this update is the support for
  overriding objects in the ACPI namespace and a new ACPI table that can
  be used for that called the Override System Definition Table (OSDT).
  That should allow us to "patch" the ACPI namespace built from
  incomplete or incorrect ACPI System Definition tables (DSDT, SSDT)
  during system startup without the need to provide replacements for all
  of those tables in the future.

  Specifics:

   - Fix system resume problems related to 32-bit and 64-bit versions of
     the Firmware ACPI Control Structure (FACS) in the firmare (Lv
     Zheng)

   - Fix double initialization of the FACS (Lv Zheng)

   - Add _CLS object processing code to ACPICA (Suravee Suthikulpanit)

   - Add support for the (currently missing) new GIC version field in
     the Multiple APIC Description Table (MADT) (Hanjun Guo)

   - Add support for overriding objects in the ACPI namespace to ACPICA
     and OSDT support (Lv Zheng, Bob Moore, Zhang Rui)

   - Updates related to the TCPA and TPM2 ACPI tables (Bob Moore)

   - Restore the commit modifying _REV to always return "2" (as required
     by ACPI 6) and add a blacklisting mechanism for systems that may be
     affected by that change (Rafael J Wysocki)

   - Assorted fixes and cleanups (Bob Moore, Lv Zheng, Sascha Wildner)"

* tag 'acpica-4.2-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rafael/linux-pm: (28 commits)
  Revert 'Revert "ACPICA: Permanently set _REV to the value '2'."'
  ACPI / init: Make it possible to override _REV
  ACPICA: Update version to 20150619
  ACPICA: Comment update, no functional change
  ACPICA: Update TPM2 ACPI table
  ACPICA: Update definitions for the TCPA and TPM2 ACPI tables

The platform firmware on some systems expects Linux to return "5" as
the supported ACPI revision which makes it expose system configuration
information in a special way.

For example, based on what ACPI exports as the supported revision,
Dell XPS 13 (2015) configures its audio device to either work in HDA
mode or in I2S mode, where the former is supposed to be used on Linux
until the latter is fully supported (in the kernel as well as in user
space).

Since ACPI 6 mandates that _REV should return "2" if ACPI 2 or later
is supported by the OS, a subsequent change will make that happen, so
make it possible to override that on systems where "5" is expected to
be returned for Linux to work correctly one them (such as the Dell
machine mentioned above).

<title>acpi-video-detect: Move acpi_osi_is_win8 to osl.c</title>

acpi_osi_is_win8 needs access to acpi_gbl_osi_data which is not exported,
so move it to osl.c. Alternatively we could export acpi_gbl_osi_data but
that seems undesirable.

This allows video_detect.c to be build as a module, besides that
acpi_osi_is_win8() is something which does not really belong in
video_detect.c in the first place.

During the period that a work queue is scheduled (queued up for run) but
hasn't been run, second schedule_work() could fail. This may not lead to
the loss of queries because QR_EC is always ensured to be submitted after
the work queue has been in the running state.

The event handling work queue can be changed into the loop style to allow
us to control the code in a more flexible way:
1. Makes it possible to add event=0x00 termination condition in the loop.
2. Increases the thoughput of the QR_EC transactions as the 2nd+ QR_EC
   transactions may be handled in the same work item used for the 1st QR_EC
   transaction, thus the delay caused by the 2nd+ work item scheduling can
   be eliminated.

Except the logging message changes and the throughput improvement, this
patch is just a funcitonal no-op.

<title>ACPI / EC: Fix and clean up register access guarding logics.</title>

<id>d8d031a605bff183b76611e0d18e2ca7021fb99f</id>
<content type='text'>
In the polling mode, EC driver shouldn't access the EC registers too
frequently. Though this statement is concluded from the non-root caused
bugs (see links below), we've maintained the register access guarding
logics in the current EC driver. The guarding logics can be found here and
there, makes it hard to root cause real timing issues. This patch collects
the guarding logics into one single function so that all hidden logics
related to this can be seen clearly.

The current guarding related code also has several issues:
1. Per-transaction timestamp prevents inter-transaction guarding from being
   implemented in the same place. We have an inter-transaction udelay() in
   acpi_ec_transaction_unblocked(), this logic can be merged into ec_poll()
   if we can use per-device timestamp. This patch completes such merge to
   form a new ec_guard() function and collects all guarding related hidden
   logics in it.
   One hidden logic is: there is no inter-transaction guarding performed
   for non MSI quirk (wait polling mode), this patch skips
   inter-transaction guarding before wait_event_timeout() for the wait
   polling mode to reveal the hidden logic.
   The other hidden logic is: there is msleep() inter-transaction guarding
   performed when the GPE storming is observed. As after merging this
   commit:
     Commit: e1d4d90fc0313d3d58cbd7912c90f8ef24df45ff
     Subject: ACPI / EC: Refine command storm prevention support
   EC_FLAGS_COMMAND_STORM is ensured to be cleared after invoking
   acpi_ec_transaction_unlocked(), the msleep() guard logic will never
   happen now. Since no one complains such change, this logic is likely
   added during the old times where the EC race issues are not fixed and
   the bugs are false root-caused to the timing issue. This patch simply
   removes the out-dated logic. We can restore it by stop skipping
   inter-transaction guarding for wait polling mode.
   Two different delay values are defined for msleep() and udelay() while
   they are merged in this patch to 550us.
2. time_after() causes additional delay in the polling mode (can only be
   observed in noirq suspend/resume processes where polling mode is always
   used) before advance_transaction() is invoked ("wait polling" log is
   added before wait_event_timeout()). We can see 2 wait_event_timeout()
   invocations. This is because time_after() ensures a "&gt;" validation while
   we only need a "&gt;=" validation here:

After cleaning up all guarding logics, we have one single function
ec_guard() collecting all old, non-root-caused, hidden logics. Then we can
easily tune the logics in one place to respond to the bug reports.

Except the time_before() change, all other changes do not change the
behavior of the EC driver.

In the polling mode, EC driver shouldn't access the EC registers too
frequently. Though this statement is concluded from the non-root caused
bugs (see links below), we've maintained the register access guarding
logics in the current EC driver. The guarding logics can be found here and
there, makes it hard to root cause real timing issues. This patch collects
the guarding logics into one single function so that all hidden logics
related to this can be seen clearly.

The current guarding related code also has several issues:
1. Per-transaction timestamp prevents inter-transaction guarding from being
   implemented in the same place. We have an inter-transaction udelay() in
   acpi_ec_transaction_unblocked(), this logic can be merged into ec_poll()
   if we can use per-device timestamp. This patch completes such merge to
   form a new ec_guard() function and collects all guarding related hidden
   logics in it.
   One hidden logic is: there is no inter-transaction guarding performed
   for non MSI quirk (wait polling mode), this patch skips
   inter-transaction guarding before wait_event_timeout() for the wait
   polling mode to reveal the hidden logic.
   The other hidden logic is: there is msleep() inter-transaction guarding
   performed when the GPE storming is observed. As after merging this
   commit:
     Commit: e1d4d90fc0313d3d58cbd7912c90f8ef24df45ff
     Subject: ACPI / EC: Refine command storm prevention support
   EC_FLAGS_COMMAND_STORM is ensured to be cleared after invoking
   acpi_ec_transaction_unlocked(), the msleep() guard logic will never
   happen now. Since no one complains such change, this logic is likely
   added during the old times where the EC race issues are not fixed and
   the bugs are false root-caused to the timing issue. This patch simply
   removes the out-dated logic. We can restore it by stop skipping
   inter-transaction guarding for wait polling mode.
   Two different delay values are defined for msleep() and udelay() while
   they are merged in this patch to 550us.
2. time_after() causes additional delay in the polling mode (can only be
   observed in noirq suspend/resume processes where polling mode is always
   used) before advance_transaction() is invoked ("wait polling" log is
   added before wait_event_timeout()). We can see 2 wait_event_timeout()
   invocations. This is because time_after() ensures a "&gt;" validation while
   we only need a "&gt;=" validation here:

<title>ACPI / sleep: Introduce CONFIG_ACPI_SYSTEM_POWER_STATES_SUPPORT</title>

ACPI 5.1 does not currently support S states for ARM64 hardware but
ACPI code will call acpi_target_system_state() and acpi_sleep_init()
for device power management, so introduce
CONFIG_ACPI_SYSTEM_POWER_STATES_SUPPORT and select it for x86 and
ia64 only to make sleep functions available, and also introduce stub
function to allow other drivers to function until S states are defined
for ARM64.

It will be no functional change for x86 and IA64.
