Roger Pau Monne 32ca78deed acpi/processor: sanitize _OSC/_PDC capabilities for Xen dom0
commit bfa993b355 upstream.

The Processor capability bits notify ACPI of the OS capabilities, and
so ACPI can adjust the return of other Processor methods taking the OS
capabilities into account.

When Linux is running as a Xen dom0, the hypervisor is the entity
in charge of processor power management, and hence Xen needs to make
sure the capabilities reported by _OSC/_PDC match the capabilities of
the driver in Xen.

Introduce a small helper to sanitize the buffer when running as Xen
dom0.

When Xen supports HWP, this serves as the equivalent of commit
a21211672c ("ACPI / processor: Request native thermal interrupt
handling via _OSC") to avoid SMM crashes.  Xen will set bit
ACPI_PROC_CAP_COLLAB_PROC_PERF (bit 12) in the capability bits and the
_OSC/_PDC call will apply it.

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.
