commit 75ec6e55f1384548311a13ce4fcb39c516053314 upstream.

Changes to correct several GPIO issues:

1) The update_rule in a GPIO field definition is now ignored;
a read-modify-write operation is never performed for GPIO fields.
(Internally, this means that the field assembly/disassembly
code is completely bypassed for GPIO.)

2) The Address parameter passed to a GPIO region handler is
now the bit offset of the field from a previous Connection()
operator. Thus, it becomes a "Pin Number Index" into the
Connection() resource descriptor.

3) The bit_width parameter passed to a GPIO region handler is
now the exact bit width of the GPIO field. Thus, it can be
interpreted as "number of pins".

Overall, we can now say that the region handler interface
to GPIO handlers is a raw "bit/pin" addressed interface, not
a byte-addressed interface like the system_memory handler interface.

<title>ACPI / cpuidle: fix deadlock between cpuidle_lock and cpu_hotplug.lock</title>

commit 6726655dfdd2dc60c035c690d9f10cb69d7ea075 upstream.

There is a following AB-BA dependency between cpu_hotplug.lock and
cpuidle_lock:

1) cpu_hotplug.lock -&gt; cpuidle_lock
enable_nonboot_cpus()
 _cpu_up()
  cpu_hotplug_begin()
   LOCK(cpu_hotplug.lock)
 cpu_notify()
  ...
  acpi_processor_hotplug()
   cpuidle_pause_and_lock()
    LOCK(cpuidle_lock)

2) cpuidle_lock -&gt; cpu_hotplug.lock
acpi_os_execute_deferred() workqueue
 ...
 acpi_processor_cst_has_changed()
  cpuidle_pause_and_lock()
   LOCK(cpuidle_lock)
  get_online_cpus()
   LOCK(cpu_hotplug.lock)

Fix this by reversing the order acpi_processor_cst_has_changed() does
thigs -- let it first execute the protection against CPU hotplug by
calling get_online_cpus() and obtain the cpuidle lock only after that (and
perform the symmentric change when allowing CPUs hotplug again and
dropping cpuidle lock).

<title>ACPI: Run fixed event device notifications in process context</title>

commit 236105db632c6279a020f78c83e22eaef746006b upstream.

Currently, notify callbacks for fixed button events are run from
interrupt context.  That is not necessary and after commit 0bf6368ee8f2
(ACPI / button: Add ACPI Button event via netlink routine) it causes
netlink routines to be called from interrupt context which is not
correct.

Also, that is different from non-fixed device events (including
non-fixed button events) whose notify callbacks are all executed from
process context.

For the above reasons, make fixed button device notify callbacks run
in process context which will avoid the deadlock when using netlink
to report button events to user space.

commit 75646e758a0ecbed5024454507d5be5b9ea9dcbf upstream.

Some machines (eg. Lenovo Z480) ECs are not stable during boot up
and causes battery driver fails to be loaded due to failure of getting
battery information from EC sometimes. After several retries, the
operation will work. This patch is to retry to get battery information 5
times if the first try fails.

[ backport to 3.14.5: removed second parameter in acpi_battery_update(),
introduced by the commit 9e50bc14a7f58b5d8a55973b2d69355852ae2dae (ACPI /
battery: Accelerate battery resume callback)]

commit 867f9d463b82462793ea4610e748be0b04b37fc7 upstream.

The recently merged change (in v3.14-rc6) to ACPI resource detection
(below) causes all zero length ACPI resources to be elided from the
table:

  commit b355cee88e3b1a193f0e9a81db810f6f83ad728b
  Author: Zhang Rui &lt;rui.zhang@intel.com&gt;
  Date:   Thu Feb 27 11:37:15 2014 +0800

    ACPI / resources: ignore invalid ACPI device resources

This change has caused a regression in (at least) serial port detection
for a number of machines (see LP#1313981 [1]).  These seem to represent
their IO regions (presumably incorrectly) as a zero length region.
Reverting the above commit restores these serial devices.

Only elide zero length resources which lie at address 0.

commit f6e6e1b9fee88c90586787b71dc49bb3ce62bb89 upstream.

Without this this EEE PC exports a non working WMI interface, with this it
exports a working "good old" eeepc_laptop interface, fixing brightness control
not working as well as rfkill being stuck in a permanent wireless blocked
state.

This is not an ideal way to fix this, but various attempts to fix this
otherwise have failed, see:

commit a4e90bed511220ff601d064c9e5d583e91308f65 upstream.

If the HW Reduced ACPI mode bit is set in the FADT, ACPICA uses
the optional sleep control and sleep status registers for making
the system enter sleep states (including S5), so it is not possible
to use system sleep states or power it off using ACPI if the HW
Reduced ACPI mode bit is set and those registers are not available.

For this reason, add a new function, acpi_sleep_state_supported(),
checking if the HW Reduced ACPI mode bit is set and whether or not
system sleep states are usable in that case in addition to checking
the return value of acpi_get_sleep_type_data() and make the ACPI
sleep setup routines use that function to check the availability of
system sleep states.

Among other things, this prevents the kernel from attempting to
use ACPI for powering off HW Reduced ACPI systems without the sleep
control and sleep status registers, because ACPI power off doesn't
have a chance to work on them.  That allows alternative power off
mechanisms that may actually work to be used on those systems.  The
affected machines include Dell Venue 8 Pro, Asus T100TA, Haswell
Desktop SDP and Ivy Bridge EP Demo depot.
