<content type='text'>
As the driver doesn't support unbinding, nor does it support arbitary
binding of devices, disable the bind/unbind attributes for this driver.
Also, as the driver has no remove function, it can never be modular,
so use builtin_platform_driver() to avoid the module exit boilerplate.

There's no need to use multiple platform drivers, especially when we
want to do something different in the probe, but we still use a common
probe function.

We can use the platform ID system to only register one platform driver,
but have it match several devices, and give us the CPU idle driver via
the ID's driver_data.

Pull more power management and ACPI updates from Rafael Wysocki:
 "These are mostly fixes and cleanups on top of the previous PM+ACPI
  pull request (cpufreq core and drivers, cpuidle, generic power domains
  framework).  Some of them didn't make to that pull request and some
  fix issues introduced by it.

  The only really new thing is the support for suspend frequency in the
  cpufreq-dt driver, but it is needed to fix an issue with Exynos
  platforms.

  Specifics:

   - build fix for the new Mediatek MT8173 cpufreq driver (Guenter
     Roeck).

   - generic power domains framework fixes (power on error code path,
     subdomain removal) and cleanup of a deprecated API user (Geert
     Uytterhoeven, Jon Hunter, Ulf Hansson).

   - cpufreq-dt driver fixes including two fixes for bugs related to the
     new Operating Performance Points Device Tree bindings introduced
     recently (Viresh Kumar).

   - suspend frequency support for the cpufreq-dt driver (Bartlomiej
     Zolnierkiewicz, Viresh Kumar).

   - cpufreq core cleanups (Viresh Kumar).

   - intel_pstate driver fixes (Chen Yu, Kristen Carlson Accardi).

   - additional sanity check in the cpuidle core (Xunlei Pang).

   - fix for a comment related to CPU power management (Lina Iyer)"

Since we are using cpuidle_driver::safe_state_index directly as the
target state index, it is better to add the sanity check at the point
of registering the driver.

Pull power management and ACPI updates from Rafael Wysocki:
 "From the number of commits perspective, the biggest items are ACPICA
  and cpufreq changes with the latter taking the lead (over 50 commits).

  On the cpufreq front, there are many cleanups and minor fixes in the
  core and governors, driver updates etc.  We also have a new cpufreq
  driver for Mediatek MT8173 chips.

  ACPICA mostly updates its debug infrastructure and adds a number of
  fixes and cleanups for a good measure.

  The Operating Performance Points (OPP) framework is updated with new
  DT bindings and support for them among other things.

  We have a few updates of the generic power domains framework and a
  reorganization of the ACPI device enumeration code and bus type
  operations.

  And a lot of fixes and cleanups all over.

  Included is one branch from the MFD tree as it contains some
  PM-related driver core and ACPI PM changes a few other commits are
  based on.

  Specifics:

   - ACPICA update to upstream revision 20150818 including method
     tracing extensions to allow more in-depth AML debugging in the
     kernel and a number of assorted fixes and cleanups (Bob Moore, Lv
     Zheng, Markus Elfring).

   - ACPI sysfs code updates and a documentation update related to AML
     method tracing (Lv Zheng).

   - ACPI EC driver fix related to serialized evaluations of _Qxx
     methods and ACPI tools updates allowing the EC userspace tool to be
     built from the kernel source (Lv Zheng).

   - ACPI processor driver updates preparing it for future introduction
     of CPPC support and ACPI PCC mailbox driver updates (Ashwin
     Chaugule).

   - ACPI interrupts enumeration fix for a regression related to the
     handling of IRQ attribute conflicts between MADT and the ACPI
     namespace (Jiang Liu).

   - Fixes related to ACPI device PM (Mika Westerberg, Srinidhi
     Kasagar).

   - ACPI device registration code reorganization to separate the
     sysfs-related code and bus type operations from the rest (Rafael J
     Wysocki).

   - Assorted cleanups in the ACPI core (Jarkko Nikula, Mathias Krause,
     Andy Shevchenko, Rafael J Wysocki, Nicolas Iooss).

   - ACPI cpufreq driver and ia64 cpufreq driver fixes and cleanups (Pan
     Xinhui, Rafael J Wysocki).

   - cpufreq core cleanups on top of the previous changes allowing it to
     preseve its sysfs directories over system suspend/resume (Viresh
     Kumar, Rafael J Wysocki, Sebastian Andrzej Siewior).

   - cpufreq fixes and cleanups related to governors (Viresh Kumar).

   - cpufreq updates (core and the cpufreq-dt driver) related to the
     turbo/boost mode support (Viresh Kumar, Bartlomiej Zolnierkiewicz).

   - New DT bindings for Operating Performance Points (OPP), support for
     them in the OPP framework and in the cpufreq-dt driver plus related
     OPP framework fixes and cleanups (Viresh Kumar).

   - cpufreq powernv driver updates (Shilpasri G Bhat).

   - New cpufreq driver for Mediatek MT8173 (Pi-Cheng Chen).

   - Assorted cpufreq driver (speedstep-lib, sfi, integrator) cleanups
     and fixes (Abhilash Jindal, Andrzej Hajda, Cristian Ardelean).

   - intel_pstate driver updates including Skylake-S support, support
     for enabling HW P-states per CPU and an additional vendor bypass
     list entry (Kristen Carlson Accardi, Chen Yu, Ethan Zhao).

   - cpuidle core fixes related to the handling of coupled idle states
     (Xunlei Pang).

   - intel_idle driver updates including Skylake Client support and
     support for freeze-mode-specific idle states (Len Brown).

   - Driver core updates related to power management (Andy Shevchenko,
     Rafael J Wysocki).

   - Generic power domains framework fixes and cleanups (Jon Hunter,
     Geert Uytterhoeven, Rajendra Nayak, Ulf Hansson).

   - Device PM QoS framework update to allow the latency tolerance
     setting to be exposed to user space via sysfs (Mika Westerberg).

   - devfreq support for PPMUv2 in Exynos5433 and a fix for an incorrect
     exynos-ppmu DT binding (Chanwoo Choi, Javier Martinez Canillas).

   - System sleep support updates (Alan Stern, Len Brown, SungEun Kim).

   - rockchip-io AVS support updates (Heiko Stuebner).

   - PM core clocks support fixup (Colin Ian King).

   - Power capping RAPL driver update including support for Skylake H/S
     and Broadwell-H (Radivoje Jovanovic, Seiichi Ikarashi).

   - Generic device properties framework fixes related to the handling
     of static (driver-provided) property sets (Andy Shevchenko).

   - turbostat and cpupower updates (Len Brown, Shilpasri G Bhat,
     Shreyas B Prabhu)"

Pull scheduler updates from Ingo Molnar:
 "The biggest change in this cycle is the rewrite of the main SMP load
  balancing metric: the CPU load/utilization.  The main goal was to make
  the metric more precise and more representative - see the changelog of
  this commit for the gory details:

    9d89c257dfb9 ("sched/fair: Rewrite runnable load and utilization average tracking")

  It is done in a way that significantly reduces complexity of the code:

    5 files changed, 249 insertions(+), 494 deletions(-)

  and the performance testing results are encouraging.  Nevertheless we
  need to keep an eye on potential regressions, since this potentially
  affects every SMP workload in existence.

  This work comes from Yuyang Du.

<title>cpuidle/coupled: Remove cpuidle_device::safe_state_index</title>

cpuidle_device::safe_state_index need to be initialized before
use, it should be the same as cpuidle_driver::safe_state_index.

We tackled this issue by removing the safe_state_index from the
cpuidle_device structure and use the one in the cpuidle_driver
structure instead.
