Linus Torvalds f4cb707e7a ACPI and power management fixes for 3.17-rc7
- Revert of a recent hibernation core commit that introduced
    a NULL pointer dereference during resume for at least one user
    (Rafael J Wysocki).
 
  - Fix for the ACPI LPSS (Low-Power Subsystem) driver to disable
    asynchronous PM callback execution for LPSS devices during system
    suspend/resume (introduced in 3.16) which turns out to break
    ordering expectations on some systems.  From Fu Zhonghui.
 
  - cpufreq core fix related to the handling of sysfs nodes during
    system suspend/resume that has been broken for intel_pstate
    since 3.15 from Lan Tianyu.
 
  - Restore the generation of "online" uevents for ACPI container
    devices that was removed in 3.14, but some user space utilities
    turn out to need them (Rafael J Wysocki).
 
  - The cpufreq core fails to release a lock in an error code path
    after changes made in 3.14.  Fix from Prarit Bhargava.
 
  - ACPICA and ACPI/GPIO fixes to make the handling of ACPI GPIO
    operation regions (which means AML using GPIOs) work correctly
    in all cases from Bob Moore and Srinivas Pandruvada.
 
  - Fix for a wrong sign of the ACPI core's create_modalias() return
    value in case of an error from Mika Westerberg.
 
  - ACPI backlight blacklist entry for ThinkPad X201s from Aaron Lu.

Pull ACPI and power management fixes from Rafael Wysocki:
 "These are regression fixes (ACPI hotplug, cpufreq, hibernation, ACPI
  LPSS driver), fixes for stuff that never worked correctly (ACPI GPIO
  support in some cases and a wrong sign of an error code in the ACPI
  core in one place), and one blacklist item for ACPI backlight
  handling.

  Specifics:

   - Revert of a recent hibernation core commit that introduced a NULL
     pointer dereference during resume for at least one user (Rafael J
     Wysocki).

   - Fix for the ACPI LPSS (Low-Power Subsystem) driver to disable
     asynchronous PM callback execution for LPSS devices during system
     suspend/resume (introduced in 3.16) which turns out to break
     ordering expectations on some systems.  From Fu Zhonghui.

   - cpufreq core fix related to the handling of sysfs nodes during
     system suspend/resume that has been broken for intel_pstate since
     3.15 from Lan Tianyu.

   - Restore the generation of "online" uevents for ACPI container
     devices that was removed in 3.14, but some user space utilities
     turn out to need them (Rafael J Wysocki).

   - The cpufreq core fails to release a lock in an error code path
