      ACPI: Fix acpi_processor_idle and idle= boot parameters interaction · 36a91358
      Venkatesh Pallipadi authored
      acpi_processor_idle and "idle=" boot parameter interaction is broken.
      The problem is that, at boot time acpi driver is checking for "idle=" boot
      option and not registering the acpi idle handler. But, when there is a CST
      changed callback (typically when switching AC <-> battery or suspend-resume)
      there are no checks for boot_option_idle_override and acpi idle handler tries
      to get installed with nasty side effects.
      
      With CPU_IDLE configured this issue causes results in a nasty oops on CST
      change callback and without CPU_IDLE there is no oops, but boot option
      of "idle=" gets ignored and acpi idle handler gets installed.
      
      Change the behavior to not do anything in acpi idle handler when there is a
      "idle=" boot option.
      
      Note that the problem is only there when "idle=" boot option is used.

      acpi: fix section mismatch warning in pnpacpi · 9448b0d4
      Sam Ravnborg authored
      Fix following section mismatch warning:
      WARNING: vmlinux.o(.text+0x153d69): Section mismatch in reference from the function is_exclusive_device() to the variable .init.data:excluded_id_list
      
      is_exclusive_device is only used from __init context so document
      this with the __init annotation and get rid of the warning.
