Linus Torvalds 49835c15a5 Power management updates for 5.7-rc1
- Clean up and rework the PM QoS API to simplify the code and
    reduce the size of it (Rafael Wysocki).
 
  - Fix a suspend-to-idle wakeup regression on Dell XPS13 9370
    and similar platforms where the USB plug/unplug events are
    handled by the EC (Rafael Wysocki).
 
  - CLean up the intel_idle and PSCI cpuidle drivers (Rafael Wysocki,
    Ulf Hansson).
 
  - Extend the haltpoll cpuidle driver so that it can be forced to
    run on some systems where it refused to load (Maciej Szmigiero).
 
  - Convert several cpufreq documents to the .rst format and move the
    legacy driver documentation into one common file (Mauro Carvalho
    Chehab, Rafael Wysocki).
 
  - Update several cpufreq drivers:
 
    * Extend and fix the imx-cpufreq-dt driver (Anson Huang).
 
    * Improve the -EPROBE_DEFER handling and fix unwanted CPU
      overclocking on i.MX6ULL in imx6q-cpufreq (Anson Huang,
      Christoph Niedermaier).
 
    * Add support for Krait based SoCs to the qcom driver (Ansuel
      Smith).
 
    * Add support for OPP_PLUS to ti-cpufreq (Lokesh Vutla).
 
    * Add platform specific intermediate callbacks support to
      cpufreq-dt and update the imx6q driver (Peng Fan).
 
    * Simplify and consolidate some pieces of the intel_pstate driver
      and update its documentation (Rafael Wysocki, Alex Hung).
 
  - Fix several devfreq issues:
 
    * Remove unneeded extern keyword from a devfreq header file
      and use the DEVFREQ_GOV_UPDATE_INTERNAL event name instead of
      DEVFREQ_GOV_INTERNAL (Chanwoo Choi).
 
    * Fix the handling of dev_pm_qos_remove_request() result (Leonard
      Crestez).
 
    * Use constant name for userspace governor (Pierre Kuo).
 
    * Get rid of doc warnings and fix a typo (Christophe JAILLET).
 
  - Use built-in RCU list checking in some places in the PM core to
    avoid false-positive RCU usage warnings (Madhuparna Bhowmik).
 
  - Add explicit READ_ONCE()/WRITE_ONCE() annotations to low-level
    PM QoS routines (Qian Cai).
 
  - Fix removal of wakeup sources to avoid NULL pointer dereferences
    in a corner case (Neeraj Upadhyay).
 
  - Clean up the handling of hibernate compat ioctls and fix the
    related documentation (Eric Biggers).
 
  - Update the idle_inject power capping driver to use variable-length
    arrays instead of zero-length arrays (Gustavo Silva).
 
  - Fix list format in a PM QoS document (Randy Dunlap).
 
  - Make the cpufreq stats module use scnprintf() to avoid potential
    buffer overflows (Takashi Iwai).
 
  - Add pm_runtime_get_if_active() to PM-runtime API (Sakari Ailus).
 
  - Allow no domain-idle-states DT property in generic PM domains (Ulf
    Hansson).
 
  - Fix a broken y-axis scale in the intel_pstate_tracer utility (Doug
    Smythies).

.. The Linux Kernel documentation master file, created by
sphinx-quickstart on Fri Feb 12 13:51:46 2016.
You can adapt this file completely to your liking, but it should at least
contain the root `toctree` directive.

The Linux Kernel documentation
==============================
This is the top level of the kernel's documentation tree. Kernel
documentation, like the kernel itself, is very much a work in progress;
that is especially true as we work to integrate our many scattered
documents into a coherent whole. Please note that improvements to the
documentation are welcome; join the linux-doc list at vger.kernel.org if
you want to help out.
Licensing documentation
-----------------------
The following describes the license of the Linux kernel source code
(GPLv2), how to properly mark the license of individual files in the source
tree, as well as links to the full license text.
* :ref:`kernel_licensing`
User-oriented documentation
---------------------------
The following manuals are written for *users* of the kernel — those who are
trying to get it to work optimally on a given system.
.. toctree::
:maxdepth: 2
admin-guide/index
kbuild/index
Firmware-related documentation
------------------------------
The following holds information on the kernel's expectations regarding the
platform firmwares.
.. toctree::
:maxdepth: 2
firmware-guide/index
Application-developer documentation
-----------------------------------
The user-space API manual gathers together documents describing aspects of
the kernel interface as seen by application developers.
.. toctree::
:maxdepth: 2
userspace-api/index
Introduction to kernel development
----------------------------------
These manuals contain overall information about how to develop the kernel.
The kernel community is quite large, with thousands of developers
contributing over the course of a year. As with any large community,
knowing how things are done will make the process of getting your changes
merged much easier.

kernel-hacking/index
trace/index
maintainer/index
fault-injection/index
livepatch/index
Kernel API documentation
------------------------
These books get into the details of how specific kernel subsystems work
from the point of view of a kernel developer. Much of the information here
is taken directly from the kernel source, with supplemental material added
as needed (or at least as we managed to add it — probably *not* all that is
needed).
