Subject: [PATCH 0/2] ACPI: Early _PDC tweaks

As requested by Len, a few more improvements in how we handle the
early _PDC path.

Allow platforms not listed in the DMI table to opt-in for early _PDC
with a kernel command line param.

If we do evaluate _PDC early, remember that fact and do not evaluate
it a second time when the ACPI processor driver loads.

/ac

Alex Chiang (2):
      ACPI: processor: add kernel command line support for early _PDC eval
      ACPI: processor: only evaluate _PDC once per processor
