Pull power management updates from Rafael Wysocki:
 "Again, cpufreq gets more changes than the other parts this time (one
  new driver, one old driver less, a bunch of enhancements of the
  existing code, new CPU IDs, fixes, cleanups)

  There also are some changes in cpuidle (idle injection rework, a
  couple of new CPU IDs, online/offline rework in intel_idle, fixes and
  cleanups), in the generic power domains framework (mostly related to
  supporting power domains containing CPUs), and in the Operating
  Performance Points (OPP) library (mostly related to supporting devices
  with multiple voltage regulators)

  In addition to that, the system sleep state selection interface is
  modified to make it easier for distributions with unchanged user space
  to support suspend-to-idle as the default system suspend method, some
  issues are fixed in the PM core, the latency tolerance PM QoS
  framework is improved a bit, the Intel RAPL power capping driver is
  cleaned up and there are some fixes and cleanups in the devfreq
  subsystem

  Specifics:

   - New cpufreq driver for Broadcom STB SoCs and a Device Tree binding
     for it (Markus Mayer)

   - Support for ARM Integrator/AP and Integrator/CP in the generic DT
     cpufreq driver and elimination of the old Integrator cpufreq driver

   - cpufreq core fix to eliminate races that may lead to using inactive
     policy objects and related cleanups (Rafael Wysocki)

   - cpufreq schedutil governor update to make it use SCHED_FIFO kernel
     threads (instead of regular workqueues) for doing delayed work (to
     reduce the response latency in some cases) and related cleanups
     (Viresh Kumar)

   - New cpufreq sysfs attribute for resetting statistics (Markus Mayer)

<title>PM / sleep: System sleep state selection interface rework</title>

<id>406e79385f3223d82272cf2be86bc95cd000a258</id>
<content type='text'>
There are systems in which the platform doesn't support any special
sleep states, so suspend-to-idle (PM_SUSPEND_FREEZE) is the only
available system sleep state.  However, some user space frameworks
only use the "mem" and (sometimes) "standby" sleep state labels, so
the users of those systems need to modify user space in order to be
able to use system suspend at all and that may be a pain in practice.

Commit 0399d4db3edf (PM / sleep: Introduce command line argument for
sleep state enumeration) attempted to address this problem by adding
a command line argument to change the meaning of the "mem" string in
/sys/power/state to make it trigger suspend-to-idle (instead of
suspend-to-RAM).

However, there also are systems in which the platform does support
special sleep states, but suspend-to-idle is the preferred one anyway
(it even may save more energy than the platform-provided sleep states
in some cases) and the above commit doesn't help in those cases.

For this reason, rework the system sleep state selection interface
again (but preserve backwards compatibiliby).  Namely, add a new
sysfs file, /sys/power/mem_sleep, that will control the system
suspend mode triggered by writing "mem" to /sys/power/state (in
analogy with what /sys/power/disk does for hibernation).  Make it
select suspend-to-RAM ("deep" sleep) by default (if supported) and
fall back to suspend-to-idle ("s2idle") otherwise and add a new
command line argument, mem_sleep_default, allowing that default to
be overridden if need be.

At the same time, drop the relative_sleep_states command line
argument that doesn't make sense any more.

suspend mode triggered by writing "mem" to /sys/power/state (in
analogy with what /sys/power/disk does for hibernation).  Make it
select suspend-to-RAM ("deep" sleep) by default (if supported) and
fall back to suspend-to-idle ("s2idle") otherwise and add a new
command line argument, mem_sleep_default, allowing that default to
be overridden if need be.

At the same time, drop the relative_sleep_states command line
argument that doesn't make sense any more.

The previous patch renamed several files that are cross-referenced
along the Kernel documentation. Adjust the links to point to
the right places.
