Pull ACPI updates from Rafael Wysocki:
 "First off, the ACPICA code in the kernel is updated to upstream
  revision 20160831 that brings in a few bug fixes and cleanups. In
  particular, it is possible to mask GPEs now (and the sysfs interface
  for GPE control is fixed on top of that), problems related to the
  table loading mechanism are fixed and all code related to FADT version
  2 (which has never been part of the ACPI specification) is dropped.

  On the new features front, there is a new watchdog driver based on the
  ACPI WDAT (ACPI Watchdog Action Table), needed on some platforms to
  replace the iTCO watchdog that doesn't work there, and some UART
  devices get new definitions of built-in properties (to be accessed via
  the generic device properties API).

  Also, included is a fix for an ACPI-related PCI resorces allocation
  issue and a few problems in the EC driver and in the button and
  battery drivers are fixed.

  In addition to that, the ACPI CPPC library is updated to make batching
  of requests sent over the PCC channel possible (which reduces the PCC
  usage overhead substantially in some cases) and to support functional
  fixed hardware (FFH) type of CPPC registers access (which will allow
  CPPC to be used on x86 too in the future).

  As usual, there are some assorted fixes and cleanups too.

  Specifics:

   - Update of the ACPICA code in the kernel to upstream revision
     20160831 with the following major changes:

      * New mechanism for GPE masking.
      * Fixes for issues related to the LoadTable operator and table
        loading.
      * Fixes for issues related to so-called module-level code (MLC),
        that is AML that doesn't belong to any methods.
      * Change of the return value of the _OSI method to reflect the
        Windows behavior.
      * GAS (Generic Address Structure) support fix related to 32-bit
        FADT addresses.
      * Elimination of unnecessary FADT version 2 support.
      * ACPI tools fixes and cleanups.

     From Bob Moore, Lv Zheng, and Jung-uk Kim.

   - ACPI sysfs interface updates to fix GPE handling (on top of the new
     GPE masking mechanism in ACPICA) and issues related to table
     loading (Lv Zheng).

   - New watchdog driver based on the ACPI WDAT (ACPI Watchdog Action
     Table), needed on some platforms to replace the iTCO watchdog that
     doesn't work there and related updates of the intel_pmc_ipc,
     i2c/i801 and MFD/lcp_ich drivers (Mika Westerberg).

   - Driver core fix to prevent it from leaking secondary fwnode objects
     during device removal (Lukas Wunner).

   - New definitions of built-in properties for UART in ACPI-based x86
     SoC drivers and a 8250_dw driver quirk for the APM X-Gene SoC
     (Heikki Krogerus).

   - New device ID for the Vulcan SPI controller and constification of
     local strucures in the AMD SoC (APD) ACPI driver (Kamlakant Patel,
     Julia Lawall).

   - Fix for a bug causing the allocation of PCI resorces to fail if
     ACPI-enumerated child platform devices are registered below the PCI
     devices in question (Mika Westerberg).

   - Change of the default polarity for PCI legacy IRQs to high on
     systems booting wth ACPI on platforms with a GIC interrupt
     controller model fixing the discrepancy between the specification
     and HW behavior (Lorenzo Pieralisi).

   - Fixes for the handling of system suspend/resume in the ACPI EC
     driver and update of that driver to make it cope with the cases
     when the EC device defined in the ECDT has to be used throughout
     the entire system life cycle (Lv Zheng).

   - Update of the ACPI CPPC library to allow it to batch requests sent
     over the PCC channel (to reduce overhead), to support the fixed
     functional hardware (FFH) CPPC registers access type, to notify the
     mailbox framework about TX completions when the interrupt flag is
     set for the PCC mailbox, and to support HW-Reduced Communication
     Subspace type 2 (Ashwin Chaugule, Prashanth Prakash, Srinivas
     Pandruvada, Hoan Tran).

   - ACPI button driver fix and documentation update related to the
     handling of laptop lids (Lv Zheng).

   - ACPI battery driver initialization fix (Carlos Garnacho).

   - ACPI GPIO enumeration documentation update (Mika Westerberg).

   - Assorted updates of the core ACPI bus type code (Lukas Wunner, Lv
     Zheng).

   - Assorted cleanups of the ACPI table parsing code and the
     x86-specific ACPI code (Al Stone).

   - Fixes for assorted ACPI-related issues found in linux-next (Wei
     Yongjun)"

+ * String conversion rules as written in the ACPI specification. The error
+ * conditions and behavior are different depending on the type of conversion.
+ *
+ *
+ * Implicit data type conversion: string-to-integer
+ * --------------------------------------------------
+ *
+ * Base is always 16. This is the ACPI_STRTOUL_BASE16 case.
+ *
+ * Example:
+ *      Add ("BA98", Arg0, Local0)
+ *
+ * The integer is initialized to the value zero.
+ * The ASCII string is interpreted as a hexadecimal constant.
+ *
+ *  1)  A "0x" prefix is not allowed. However, ACPICA allows this for
+ *      compatibility with previous ACPICA. (NO ERROR)
+ *
+ *  2)  Terminates when the size of an integer is reached (32 or 64 bits).
+ *      (NO ERROR)
+ *
+ *  3)  The first non-hex character terminates the conversion without error.
+ *      (NO ERROR)
+ *
+ *  4)  Conversion of a null (zero-length) string to an integer is not
+ *      allowed. However, ACPICA allows this for compatibility with previous
+ *      ACPICA. This conversion returns the value 0. (NO ERROR)
+ *
+ *
+ * Explicit data type conversion:  to_integer() with string operand
+ * ---------------------------------------------------------------
+ *
+ * Base is either 10 (default) or 16 (with 0x prefix)
+ *
+ * Examples:
+ *      to_integer ("1000")
+ *      to_integer ("0xABCD")
+ *
+ *  1)  Can be (must be) either a decimal or hexadecimal numeric string.
+ *      A hex value must be prefixed by "0x" or it is interpreted as a decimal.
+ *
+ *  2)  The value must not exceed the maximum of an integer value. ACPI spec
+ *      states the behavior is "unpredictable", so ACPICA matches the behavior
+ *      of the implicit conversion case.(NO ERROR)
+ *
+ *  3)  Behavior on the first non-hex character is not specified by the ACPI
+ *      spec, so ACPICA matches the behavior of the implicit conversion case
+ *      and terminates. (NO ERROR)
+ *
+ *  4)  A null (zero-length) string is illegal.
+ *      However, ACPICA allows this for compatibility with previous ACPICA.
+ *      This conversion returns the value 0. (NO ERROR)

+ *
+ * DESCRIPTION: Convert a string into an unsigned value. Performs either a
+ *              32-bit or 64-bit conversion, depending on the input integer
+ *              size in Flags (often the current mode of the interpreter).
+ *
+ * Values for Flags:
+ *      ACPI_STRTOUL_32BIT      - Max integer value is 32 bits
+ *      ACPI_STRTOUL_64BIT      - Max integer value is 64 bits
+ *      ACPI_STRTOUL_BASE16     - Input string is hexadecimal. Default
+ *                                is 10/16 based on string prefix (0x).
+ *
+ * NOTES:
+ *   Negative numbers are not supported, as they are not supported by ACPI.
+ *
+ *   Supports only base 16 or base 10 strings/values. Does not
+ *   support Octal strings, as these are not supported by ACPI.
+ *
+ * Current users of this support:
+ *
+ *  interpreter - Implicit and explicit conversions, GPE method names
+ *  debugger    - Command line input string conversion
+ *  iASL        - Main parser, conversion of constants to integers
+ *  iASL        - Data Table Compiler parser (constant math expressions)
+ *  iASL        - Preprocessor (constant math expressions)
+ *  acpi_dump   - Input table addresses
+ *  acpi_exec   - Testing of the acpi_ut_strtoul64 function
+ *
+ * Note concerning callers:
+ *   acpi_gbl_integer_byte_width can be used to set the 32/64 limit. If used,
+ *   this global should be set to the proper width. For the core ACPICA code,
+ *   this width depends on the DSDT version. For iASL, the default byte
+ *   width is always 8 for the parser, but error checking is performed later
+ *   to flag cases where a 64-bit constant is defined in a 32-bit DSDT/SSDT.

+	 * fact it(other CPU acquiring the write_lock) couldn't have happened
+	 * before this CPU's Phase-I as we held the read_lock.
+	 *     3. Some other CPU executing pcc CMD_READ has stolen the
+	 * down_write, in which case, send_pcc_cmd will check for pending
+	 * CMD_WRITE commands by checking the pending_pcc_write_cmd.
+	 * So this CPU can be certain that its request will be delivered
+	 *    So in all cases, this CPU knows that its request will be delivered
