Pull ACPI updates from Rafael Wysocki:
"The ACPICA code in the kernel gets updated as usual (included is
upstream revision 20160930 and a few commits from the next one, with
the rest waiting for an issue discovered in linux-next to be
addressed) which brings in a couple of fixes and cleanups
On top of that initial support for APEI on ARM64 is added, two new
pieces of documentation are introduced, the properties-parsing code is
updated to follow changes in the (external) documentation it is based
on and there are a few updates of SoC drivers, some new blacklist
entries, plus some assorted fixes and cleanups
Specifics:
- ACPICA update including upstream revision 20160930 and several
commits beyond it (Bob Moore, Lv Zheng)
- Initial support for ACPI APEI on ARM64 (Tomasz Nowicki)
- New document describing the handling of _OSI and _REV in Linux (Len
Brown)
- New document describing the usage rules for _DSD properties (Rafael
Wysocki)
- Update of the ACPI properties-parsing code to reflect recent
changes in the (external) documentation it is based on (Rafael
Wysocki)
- Updates of the ACPI LPSS and ACPI APD SoC drivers for additional
hardware support (Andy Shevchenko, Nehal Shah)
- New blacklist entries for _REV and video handling (Alex Hung, Hans
de Goede, Michael Pobega)
- ACPI battery driver fix to fall back to _BIF if _BIX fails (Dave
Lambley)
- NMI notifications handling fix for APEI (Prarit Bhargava)
- Error code path fix for the ACPI CPPC library (Dan Carpenter)
- Assorted cleanups (Andy Shevchenko, Longpeng Mike)"
