   invalid (Rafael Wysocki).

 - Rework quirk handling during ACPI device enumeration and add some
   new quirks for known broken platforms (Hans de Goede).

 - Avoid unnecessary or redundant CPU cache flushing during system
   PM transitions (Kirill A. Shutemov).

 - Add PM debug messages related to power resources (Rafael Wysocki).

   driver (Kirill A. Shutemov).

 - Replace kernel.h with the necessary inclusions in the ACPI
   processor driver (Andy Shevchenko).

 - Use swap() instead of open coding it in the ACPI processor idle
   driver (Guo Zhengkui).
