The firmware class uevent function accessed the "fw_priv->buf" buffer
without the proper locking and testing for NULL.  This is an old bug
(looks like it goes back to 2012 and commit 1244691c73b2: "firmware
loader: introduce firmware_buf"), but for some reason it's triggering
only now in 4.2-rc1.

Shuah Khan is trying to bisect what it is that causes this to trigger
more easily, but in the meantime let's just fix the bug since others are
hitting it too (at least Ingo reports having seen it as well).

* pm-wakeirq:
  PM / wakeirq: Avoid setting power.wakeirq too hastily

If dev_pm_attach_wake_irq() fails, the device's power.wakeirq field
should not be set to point to the struct wake_irq passed to that
function, as that object will be freed going forward.

For this reason, make dev_pm_attach_wake_irq() first call
device_wakeup_attach_irq() and only set the device's power.wakeirq
field if that's successful.

That requires device_wakeup_attach_irq() to be called under the
device's power.lock lock, but since dev_pm_attach_wake_irq() is
the only caller of it, the requisite changes are easy to make.

If pm_genpd_{add,remove}_device() keeps on failing with -EAGAIN, we end
up with an infinite loop in genpd_dev_pm_{at,de}tach().

This may happen due to a genpd.prepared_count imbalance.  This is a bug
elsewhere, but it will result in a system lock up, possibly during
reboot of an otherwise functioning system.

To avoid this, put a limit on the maximum number of loop iterations,
using an exponential back-off mechanism.  If the limit is reached, the
operation will just fail.  An error message is already printed.

Pull power management and ACPI fixes from Rafael Wysocki:
 "These are fixes that didn't make it to the previous PM+ACPI pull
  request or are fixing issues introduced by it.

  Specifics:

   - Fix a recently added memory leak in an error path in the ACPI
     resources management code (Dan Carpenter)

   - Fix a build warning triggered by an ACPI video header function that
     should be static inline (Borislav Petkov)

   - Change names of helper function converting struct fwnode_handle
     pointers to either struct device_node or struct acpi_device
     pointers so they don't conflict with local variable names
     (Alexander Sverdlin)

   - Make the hibernate core re-enable nonboot CPUs on failures to
     disable them as expected (Vitaly Kuznetsov)

   - Increase the default timeout of the device suspend watchdog to
     prevent it from triggering too early on some systems (Takashi Iwai)

   - Prevent the cpuidle powernv driver from registering idle states
     with CPUIDLE_FLAG_TIMER_STOP set if CONFIG_TICK_ONESHOT is unset
     which leads to boot hangs (Preeti U Murthy)"

* tag 'pm+acpi-4.2-rc1-2' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rafael/linux-pm:
  tick/idle/powerpc: Do not register idle states with CPUIDLE_FLAG_TIMER_STOP set in periodic mode
  PM / sleep: Increase default DPM watchdog timeout to 60
  PM / hibernate: re-enable nonboot cpus on disable_nonboot_cpus() failure
  ACPI / OF: Rename of_node() and acpi_node() to to_of_node() and to_acpi_node()
  ACPI / video: Inline acpi_video_set_dmi_backlight_type
  ACPI / resources: free memory on error in add_region_before()

This patch initalises all low memory struct pages and 2G of the highest
zone on each node during memory initialisation if
CONFIG_DEFERRED_STRUCT_PAGE_INIT is set.  That config option cannot be set
but will be available in a later patch.  Parallel initialisation of struct
page depends on some features from memory hotplug and it is necessary to
alter alter section annotations.
