commit 8df3fc981dc12d9fdcaef4100a2193b605024d7a upstream.

Some Panasonic Toughbooks create nodes in module level code.
Module level code is the executable AML code outside of control method,
for example, below AML code creates a node \_SB.PCI0.GFX0.DD02.CUBL

        If (\_OSI ("Windows 2006"))
        {
            Scope (\_SB.PCI0.GFX0.DD02)
            {
                Name (CUBL, Ones)
                ...
            }
        }

Scope() op does not actually create a new object, it refers to an
existing object(\_SB.PCI0.GFX0.DD02 in above example). However, for
Scope(), we want to indeed open a new scope, so the child nodes(CUBL in
above example) can be created correctly under it.

commit 573b638158029898caf9470c8214b7ddd29751e3 upstream.

Section 4.7.3.1.1 (PM1 Status Registers) of version 4.0 of
the ACPI spec concerning PCIEXP_WAKE_STS points out in
in the final note field in table 4-11 that if this bit is
set to 1 and the system is put into a sleeping state then
the system will not automatically wake.

This bit gets set by hardware to indicate that the system
woke up due to a PCI Express wakeup event, so clear it during
acpi_hw_clear_acpi_status() calls to enable subsequent
resumes to work.

<title>ACPI: Unconditionally set SCI_EN on resume</title>

commit b6dacf63e9fb2e7a1369843d6cef332f76fca6a3 upstream.

The ACPI spec tells us that the firmware will reenable SCI_EN on resume.
Reality disagrees in some cases. The ACPI spec tells us that the only way
to set SCI_EN is via an SMM call.
https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=13745 shows us that doing so
may break machines. Tracing the ACPI calls made by Windows shows that it
unconditionally sets SCI_EN on resume with a direct register write, and
therefore the overwhelming probability is that everything is fine with
this behaviour.

<title>ACPI: skip checking BM_STS if the BIOS doesn't ask for it</title>

commit 718be4aaf3613cf7c2d097f925abc3d3553c0605 upstream.

It turns out that there is a bit in the _CST for Intel FFH C3
that tells the OS if we should be checking BM_STS or not.

Linux has been unconditionally checking BM_STS.
If the chip-set is configured to enable BM_STS,
it can retard or completely prevent entry into
deep C-states -- as illustrated by turbostat:

http://userweb.kernel.org/~lenb/acpi/utils/pmtools/turbostat/

ref: Intel Processor Vendor-Specific ACPI Interface Specification
table 4 "_CST FFH GAS Field Encoding"
Bit 1: Set to 1 if OSPM should use Bus Master avoidance for this C-state
