Hi Linus,

Please pull from

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rafael/linux-pm.git \
pm+acpi-3.16-rc5

to receive ACPI and power management fixes for v3.16-rc5
with top-most commit 2091044299e9bc3340d845301b13bd92d6c10993

Merge branch 'pm-cpufreq'

on top of commit cd3de83f147601356395b57a8673e9c5ff1e59d1

Linux 3.16-rc4

These are a few regression fixes for ACPI device enumeration and
resources management, intel_pstate and cpufreq, a revert of an
ACPI commit removing user space interfaces in /proc that we
incorrectly thought were not used any more, fixes for some
long-standing concurrency issues in the ACPI EC driver, two ACPI
battery driver fixes, stable-candidate fixes for intel_pstate, an
ACPI-related fix for i915 and two new ACPI video blacklist entries
for Win8-oriented BIOSes.

Specifics:

- Missing device ID for ACPI enumeration of PNP devices that we
overlooked during the recent rework of that code from Zhang Rui.

- Fix for a problem introduced during the 3.14 cycle in the ACPI
device resources management code and causing it to reject all
resources of length 0 although some of them are actually valid
which affects serial ports detection on a number of systems.
From Andy Whitcroft.

- intel_pstate fix for a boot problem on some BayTrail-based
systems introduced by a previous fix related to that platform
during the 3.13 cycle from Dirk Brandewie.

- Revert of a 3.13 commit that removed the ACPI AC /proc interface
which turns out to be still needed by some old utilities (kpowersave
from kde 3.5.10 in particular) from Lan Tianyu.

- cpufreq build fix for the davinci ARM platform from Prabhakar Lad
(the breakage was introduced during the 3.10 cycle).

- ACPI-related i915 fix preventing firmware on some Thinkpad laptops
from setting backlight levels incorrectly during AC plug/unplug.
From Aaron Lu.

- Fixes for two nasty race conditions in the ACPI embedded controller
driver that may be responsible for a number of past bug reports
related to the EC from Lv Zhang and a fix for two memory leaks in
error code paths in that driver from Colin Ian King.

- Fixes for a couple of corner-case issues in the intel_pstate
driver (all candidates for -stable) from Dirk Brandewie and
Vincent Minet.

- Fixes for two corner-case issues in the ACPI battery driver
from Josef Gajdusek and Lan Tianyu.

- Two new ACPI video blacklist entries for Acer TravelMate B113
and Dell Inspiron 5737 from Edward Lin and Martin Kepplinger.

Thanks!
