From: Len Brown
In an effort to be fair to bound processes,
acpi_pad periodically moves its forced-idle threads.
The default interval for moving the threads is 10 seconds.
Measurements show that reducing this to 1 second has no
power or performance impact, so reduce default to 1 second.

Add acpi_load_table and acpi_unload_parent_table to support
host-directed dynamic table load/unload. Intended to support
hotplug addition and removal of SSDTs.

"acpi_pad/%d" is a better thread name than
generic "power_saving/%d" because users who see
these threads will know the name of the driver

When ACPI_HOTPLUG_OST is defined, set hotplug _OST support bit
OSC_SB_HOTPLUG_OST_SUPPORT to indicate that the OS supports hotplug
_OST by calling the platform-wide ACPI Operating System Capabilities

Changed acpi_bus_hot_remove_device() to support _OST. This function is
also changed to global so that it can be called from hotplug notify
handlers to perform hot-remove operation.

The existing check for dev == NULL in __cpuidle_register_device() is
rendered useless because dev is dereferenced before the check itself.
Moreover, correctly speaking, it is the job of the callers of this

For ACPI string objects, always use the common string dump
function, acpi_ut_print_string. This function surrounds the string
with quotes and handles allowed escape sequences.

For those who have read the Google+ thread[1] it is pretty clear that
there are varying opinions on the idea of removing the RDRAND bypass.
I have gathered some performance numbers to make the debate more
concrete: RDRAND is between 12 and 15 times faster than the current
random pool system (f
