commit 30c9bb0d7603e7b3f4d6a0ea231e1cddae020c32 upstream.

The order of the _OSI related functionalities is as follows:

  acpi_blacklisted()
    acpi_dmi_osi_linux()
      acpi_osi_setup()
    acpi_osi_setup()
      acpi_update_interfaces() if "!*"
      &lt;&lt;&lt;&lt;&lt;&lt;&lt;&lt;&lt;&lt;&lt;&lt;&lt;&lt;&lt;&lt;&lt;&lt;&lt;&lt;&lt;&lt;&lt;&lt;
  parse_args()
    __setup("acpi_osi=")
      acpi_osi_setup_linux()
        acpi_update_interfaces() if "!*"
        &lt;&lt;&lt;&lt;&lt;&lt;&lt;&lt;&lt;&lt;&lt;&lt;&lt;&lt;&lt;&lt;&lt;&lt;&lt;&lt;&lt;&lt;&lt;&lt;
  acpi_early_init()
    acpi_initialize_subsystem()
      acpi_ut_initialize_interfaces()
      ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
  acpi_bus_init()
    acpi_os_initialize1()
      acpi_install_interface_handler(acpi_osi_handler)
      acpi_osi_setup_late()
        acpi_update_interfaces() for "!"
        &gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;
  acpi_osi_handler()

Since acpi_osi_setup_linux() can override acpi_dmi_osi_linux(), the command
line setting can override the DMI detection. That's why acpi_blacklisted()
is put before __setup("acpi_osi=").

Then we can notice the following wrong invocation order. There are
acpi_update_interfaces() (marked by &lt;&lt;&lt;&lt;) calls invoked before
acpi_ut_initialize_interfaces() (marked by ^^^^). This makes it impossible
to use acpi_osi=!* correctly from OSI DMI table or from the command line.
The use of acpi_osi=!* is meant to disable both ACPICA
(acpi_gbl_supported_interfaces) and Linux specific strings
(osi_setup_entries) while the ACPICA part should have stopped working
because of the order issue.

This patch fixes this issue by moving acpi_update_interfaces() to where
it is invoked for acpi_osi=! (marked by &gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;) as this is ensured to be
invoked after acpi_ut_initialize_interfaces() (marked by ^^^^). Linux
specific strings are still handled in the original place in order to make
the following command line working: acpi_osi=!* acpi_osi="Module Device".

Note that since acpi_osi=!* is meant to further disable linux specific
string comparing to the acpi_osi=!, there is no such use case in our bug
fixing work and hence there is no one using acpi_osi=!* either from the
command line or from the DMI quirks, this issue is just a theoretical
issue.

Pull power management and ACPI fixes from Rafael Wysocki:
 "Fixes for problems introduced or discovered recently (intel_pstate,
  sti-cpufreq, ARM64 cpuidle, Operating Performance Points framework,
  generic device properties framework) and one fix for a hotplug-related
  deadlock in ACPICA that's been there forever, but is nasty enough.

  Specifics:

   - Fix for a recent regression in the intel_pstate driver causing it
     to fail to restore the HWP (HW-managed P-states) configuration of
     the boot CPU after suspend-to-RAM (Rafael Wysocki).

   - Fix for two recent regressions in the intel_pstate driver, one that
     can trigger a divide by zero if the driver is accessed via sysfs
     before it manages to take the first sample and one causing it to
     fail to update a structure field used in a trace point, so the
     information coming from it is less useful (Rafael Wysocki).

   - Fix for a problem in the sti-cpufreq driver introduced during the
     4.5 cycle that causes it to break CPU PM in multi-platform kernels
     by registering cpufreq-dt (which subsequently doesn't work)
     unconditionally and preventing the driver that would actually work
     from registering (Sudeep Holla).

   - Stable-candidate fix for an ARM64 cpuidle issue causing idle state
     usage counters to be incorrectly updated for idle states that were
     not entered due to errors (James Morse).

   - Fix for a recently introduced issue in the OPP (Operating
     Performance Points) framework causing it to print bogus error
     messages for missing optional regulators (Viresh Kumar).

   - Fix for a recently introduced issue in the generic device
     properties framework that may cause it to attempt to dereferece and
     invalid pointer in some cases (Heikki Krogerus).

   - Fix for a deadlock in the ACPICA core that may be triggered by
     device (eg Thunderbolt) hotplug (Prarit Bhargava)"

When transportation of the command completes successfully, it indicates
that the 'status' result is valid.  Fix the missed checking and
translation of the status field at the end of acpi_nfit_ctl().
Otherwise, we fail to handle reported errors and assume commands
complete successfully.

<content type='text'>
There are several reports of freeze on enabling HWP (Hardware PStates)
feature on Skylake-based systems by the Intel P-states driver. The root
cause is identified as the HWP interrupts causing BIOS code to freeze.

HWP interrupts use the thermal LVT which can be handled by Linux
natively, but on the affected Skylake-based systems SMM will respond
to it by default.  This is a problem for several reasons:
 - On the affected systems the SMM thermal LVT handler is broken (it
   will crash when invoked) and a BIOS update is necessary to fix it.
 - With thermal interrupt handled in SMM we lose all of the reporting
   features of the arch/x86/kernel/cpu/mcheck/therm_throt driver.
 - Some thermal drivers like x86-package-temp depend on the thermal
   threshold interrupts signaled via the thermal LVT.
 - The HWP interrupts are useful for debugging and tuning
   performance (if the kernel can handle them).
The native handling of thermal interrupts needs to be enabled
because of that.

This requires some way to tell SMM that the OS can handle thermal
interrupts.  That can be done by using _OSC/_PDC in processor
scope very early during ACPI initialization.

The meaning of _OSC/_PDC bit 12 in processor scope is whether or
not the OS supports native handling of interrupts for Collaborative
Processor Performance Control (CPPC) notifications.  Since on
HWP-capable systems CPPC is a firmware interface to HWP, setting
this bit effectively tells the firmware that the OS will handle
thermal interrupts natively going forward.

For details on _OSC/_PDC refer to:
http://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/standards/processor-vendor-specific-acpi-specification.html

To implement the _OSC/_PDC handshake as described, introduce a new
function, acpi_early_processor_osc(), that walks the ACPI
namespace looking for ACPI processor objects and invokes _OSC for
them with bit 12 in the capabilities buffer set and terminates the
namespace walk on the first success.

Also modify intel_thermal_interrupt() to clear HWP status bits in
the HWP_STATUS MSR to acknowledge HWP interrupts (which prevents
them from firing continuously).

Pull more power management and ACPI updates from Rafael Wysocki:
 "The second batch of power management and ACPI updates for v4.6.

  Included are fixups on top of the previous PM/ACPI pull request and
  other material that didn't make into it but still should go into 4.6.

  Among other things, there's a fix for an intel_pstate driver issue
  uncovered by recent cpufreq changes, a workaround for a boot hang on
  Skylake-H related to the handling of deep C-states by the platform and
  a PCI/ACPI fix for the handling of IO port resources on non-x86
  architectures plus some new device IDs and similar.

  Specifics:

   - Fix for an intel_pstate driver issue related to the handling of MSR
     updates uncovered by the recent cpufreq rework (Rafael Wysocki).

   - cpufreq core cleanups related to starting governors and frequency
     synchronization during resume from system suspend and a locking fix
     for cpufreq_quick_get() (Rafael Wysocki, Richard Cochran).

   - acpi-cpufreq and powernv cpufreq driver updates (Jisheng Zhang,
     Michael Neuling, Richard Cochran, Shilpasri Bhat).

   - intel_idle driver update preventing some Skylake-H systems from
     hanging during initialization by disabling deep C-states mishandled
     by the platform in the problematic configurations (Len Brown).

   - Intel Xeon Phi Processor x200 support for intel_idle
     (Dasaratharaman Chandramouli).

   - cpuidle menu governor updates to make it always honor PM QoS
     latency constraints (and prevent C1 from being used as the fallback
     C-state on x86 when they are set below its exit latency) and to
     restore the previous behavior to fall back to C1 if the next timer
     event is set far enough in the future that was changed in 4.4 which
     led to an energy consumption regression (Rik van Riel, Rafael
     Wysocki).

   - New device ID for a future AMD UART controller in the ACPI driver
     for AMD SoCs (Wang Hongcheng).

   - Rockchip rk3399 support for the rockchip-io-domain adaptive voltage
     scaling (AVS) driver (David Wu).

   - ACPI PCI resources management fix for the handling of IO space
     resources on architectures where the IO space is memory mapped
     (IA64 and ARM64) broken by the introduction of common ACPI
     resources parsing for PCI host bridges in 4.4 (Lorenzo Pieralisi).

   - Fix for the ACPI backend of the generic device properties API to
     make it parse non-device (data node only) children of an ACPI
     device correctly (Irina Tirdea).

   - Fixes for the handling of global suspend flags (introduced in 4.4)
     during hibernation and resume from it (Lukas Wunner).

   - Support for obtaining configuration information from Device Trees
     in the PM clocks framework (Jon Hunter).

   - ACPI _DSM helper code and devfreq framework cleanups (Colin Ian
     King, Geert Uytterhoeven)"
