Hi, all,

This is the patch set for linux-next.

the changes includes:

V4:
- dropped three patches which have been already picked by Len.
- re-organize some piece of code based on Rafael's comments
- improve some changelog

V3: http://marc.info/?l=linux-acpi&m=134318254518940&w=2
- fixing a build error.
- making a couple of changes based on Rafael's comments
- removing the plist patch for now as I do not have validate data to show how much benefit it brings.

V2: http://marc.info/?l=linux-acpi&m=134267975014396&w=2
- a couple of changes based on Eduardo and Amit's comments.
- convert an internal list to plist to be more efficiency.

V1: http://marc.info/?l=linux-acpi&m=133938485224765&w=2
- 12 RFC patches to fix the problems discussed in http://marc.info/?l=linux-acpi&m=133836783425764&w=2

please kindly review.

Any comments are welcome.

thanks,
rui
