Hi Linus,

Please pull from the tag

 git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rafael/linux-pm.git \
 acpi-4.11-rc7

with top-most commit f83e13f94e14d27c9610f917e40e23a6c2bbeaf0

 Merge branches 'acpi-scan-fixes' and 'acpica-fixes'

on top of commit 39da7c509acff13fc8cb12ec1bb20337c988ed36

 Linux 4.11-rc6

to receive ACPI fixes for v4.11-rc7.

These revert a recent ACPICA commit that turned out to be problematic
and fix a device enumeration breakage from the 4.8 cycle.

Specifics:

 - Revert a recent ACPICA commit targeted at catching firmware bugs
   which promptly did that and caused functional problems to appear
   (Rafael Wysocki).

 - Fix a device enumeration problem introduced in the 4.8 time frame
   which caused the ACPI docking station driver to report incorrect
   status via sysfs among other things (Rafael Wysocki).

Thanks!

Rafael J. Wysocki (2):
      ACPI / scan: Set the visited flag for all enumerated devices
      Revert "ACPICA: Resources: Not a valid resource if buffer length too long"
