Linus Torvalds e6d1315006 ACPI updates for 4.21-rc1
- Update the ACPICA code in the kernel to the 20181213 upstream
    revision including:
    * New Windows _OSI strings (Bob Moore, Jung-uk Kim).
    * Buffers-to-string conversions update (Bob Moore).
    * Removal of support for expressions in package elements (Bob
      Moore).
    * New option to display method/object evaluation in debug output
      (Bob Moore).
    * Compiler improvements (Bob Moore, Erik Schmauss).
    * Minor debugger fix (Erik Schmauss).
    * Disassembler improvement (Erik Schmauss).
    * Assorted cleanups (Bob Moore, Colin Ian King, Erik Schmauss).
 
  - Add support for a new OEM _OSI string to indicate special handling
    of secondary graphics adapters on some systems (Alex Hung).
 
  - Make it possible to build the ACPI subystem without PCI support
    (Sinan Kaya).
 
  - Make the SPCR table handling regard baud rate 0 in accordance with
    the specification of it and make the DSDT override code support
    DSDT code names generated by recent ACPICA (Andy Shevchenko, Wang
    Dongsheng, Nathan Chancellor).
 
  - Add clock frequency for Hisilicon Hip08 SPI controller to the ACPI
    driver for AMD SoCs (APD) (Jay Fang).
 
  - Fix the PM handling during device init in the ACPI driver for
    Intel SoCs (LPSS) (Hans de Goede).
 
  - Avoid double panic()s by clearing the APEI GHES block_status
    before panic() (Lenny Szubowicz).
 
  - Clean up a function invocation in the ACPI core and get rid of
    some code duplication by using the DEFINE_SHOW_ATTRIBUTE macro
    in the APEI support code (Alexey Dobriyan, Yangtao Li).

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
