Pull ACPI and power management fixes from Rafael Wysocki: - ACPI-based memory hotplug stopped working after a recent change, because it's not possible to associate sufficiently many "physical" devices with one ACPI device object due to an artificial limit. Fix from Rafael J Wysocki removes that limit and makes memory hotplug work again. - A change made in 3.9 uncovered a bug in the ACPI processor driver preventing NUMA nodes from being put offline due to an ordering issue. Fix from Yasuaki Ishimatsu changes the ordering to make things work again. - One of the recent ACPI video commits (that hasn't been reverted so far) uncovered a bug in the code handling quirky BIOSes that caused some Asus machines to boot with backlight completely off which made it quite difficult to use them afterward. Fix from Felipe Contreras improves the quirk to cover this particular case correctly. - A cpufreq user space interface change made in 3.10 inadvertently renamed the ignore_nice_load sysfs attribute to ignore_nice which resulted in some confusion. Fix from Viresh Kumar changes the name back to ignore_nice_load. - An initialization ordering change made in 3.9 broke cpufreq on loongson2 boards. Fix from Aaro Koskinen restores the correct initialization ordering there. - Fix breakage resulting from a mistake made in 3.9 and causing the detection of some graphics adapters (that were detected correctly before) to fail. There are two objects representing the same PCIe port in the affected systems' ACPI tables and both appear as "enabled" and we are expected to guess which one to use. We used to choose the right one before by pure luck, but when we tried to address another similar corner case, the luck went away. This time we try to make our guessing a bit more educated which is reported to work on those systems. - The /proc/acpi/wakeup interface code is missing some locking which may lead to breakage if that file is written or read during hotplug of wakeup devices. That should be rare but still possible, so it's better to start using the appropriate locking there. * tag 'pm+acpi-3.11-rc5' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rafael/linux-pm: ACPI: Try harder to resolve _ADR collisions for bridges cpufreq: rename ignore_nice as ignore_nice_load cpufreq: loongson2: fix regression related to clock management ACPI / processor: move try_offline_node() after acpi_unmap_lsapic() ACPI: Drop physical_node_id_bitmap from struct acpi_device ACPI / PM: Walk physical_node_list under physical_node_lock ACPI / video: improve quirk check in acpi_video_bqc_quirk()
