Linus Torvalds fe03a7594d ACPI fixes for 4.17-rc3
- Change the ACPI subsystem initialization ordering to initialize
    the WDAT watchodg before reserving PNP motherboard resources so
    as to allow the watchdog to allocate its resources before the PNP
    code gets to them and prevents it from working correctly (Mika
    Westerberg).
 
  - Add a quirk for Lenovo Z50-70 to use the iTCO watchdog instead of
    the WDAT one which conflicts with the RTC on that platform (Mika
    Westerberg).
 
  - Avoid breaking backlight handling on Dell XPS 13 2013 model by
    allowing laptops to use the ACPI backlight by default even if they
    are Windows 8-ready in principle (Hans de Goede).

Pull ACPI fixes from Rafael Wysocki:
 "These are two watchdog-related fixes, fix for a backlight regression
  from the 4.16 cycle that unfortunately was propagated to -stable and a
  button module modification to prevent graphics driver modules from
  failing to load due to unmet dependencies if ACPI is disabled from the
  kernel command line.

  Specifics:

   - Change the ACPI subsystem initialization ordering to initialize the
     WDAT watchodg before reserving PNP motherboard resources so as to
     allow the watchdog to allocate its resources before the PNP code
     gets to them and prevents it from working correctly (Mika
     Westerberg).

   - Add a quirk for Lenovo Z50-70 to use the iTCO watchdog instead of
     the WDAT one which conflicts with the RTC on that platform (Mika
     Westerberg).

   - Avoid breaking backlight handling on Dell XPS 13 2013 model by
     allowing laptops to use the ACPI backlight by default even if they
     are Windows 8-ready in principle (Hans de Goede)"

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
