Hi Linus,

Please pull from

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rafael/linux-pm.git \
pm+acpi-3.15-rc3

to receive ACPI, power management and PNP fixes for v3.15-rc3
with top-most commit d4c9c8a09cff85f69b2c224ca7dbeb42431da2b3

Merge branches 'pnp' and 'acpi-hotplug'

on top of commit a798c10faf62a505d24e5f6213fbaf904a39623f

Linux 3.15-rc2

These include a fix for a recent ACPI regression related to
device notifications, intel_idle fix related to IvyTown support,
fix for a buffer size issue in ACPICA, PM core fix related to the
"freeze" sleep state, four fixes for various types of breakage in
cpufreq drivers, a PNP workaround for a wrong memory region size
in ACPI tables, and a fix and cleanup for the ACPI tools Makefile.

Specifics:

- Fix for broken ACPI notifications on some systems caused by
a recent ACPI hotplug commit that blocked the propagation of
unknown type notifications to device drivers inadvertently.

- intel_idle fix to make the IvyTown C-states handling (added
recently) work as intended which now is broken due to missing
braces. From Christoph Jaeger.

- ACPICA fix to make it allocate buffers of the right sizes for
the Generic Serial Bus operation region access. From Lv Zheng.

- PM core fix unblocking cpuidle before entering the "freeze"
sleep state which causes that state to be able to actually save
more energy than runtime idle.

- Configuration and build fixes for the highbank and powernv
cpufreq drivers from Kefeng Wang and Srivatsa S Bhat.

- Coccinelle warning fix related to error pointers for the
unicore32 cpufreq driver from Duan Jiong.

- Integer overflow fix for the ppc-corenet cpufreq driver from
Geert Uytterhoeven.

- Workaround for BIOSes that don't report the entire Intel MCH
area in their ACPI tables from Bjorn Helgaas.

- ACPI tools Makefile fix and cleanup from Thomas Renninger.

Thanks!
