Subject: [GIT PULL] ACPI and power management fixes for v3.15-rc8

Hi Linus,

Please pull from

 git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rafael/linux-pm.git \
 pm+acpi-3.15-rc8

to receive ACPI and power management fixes for v3.15-rc8 (if
you decide to do -rc8) or for the final v3.15 (otherwise) with
top-most commit 9b961aa99b8155ecc07dd727643ca97424544256

  Merge branches 'pm-cpufreq' and 'acpi-thermal'

on top of commit c7208164e66f63e3ec1759b98087849286410741

  Linux 3.15-rc7

These are three stable-candidate fixes, one for the ACPI thermal
driver and two for cpufreq drivers.

Specifics:

 - A workqueue is destroyed too early during the ACPI thermal driver
   module unload which leads to a NULL pointer dereference in the
   driver's remove callback.  Fix from Aaron Lu.

 - A wrong argument is passed to devm_regulator_get_optional() in
   the probe routine of the cpu0 cpufreq driver which leads to
   resource leaks if the driver is unbound from the cpufreq
   platform device.  Fix from Lucas Stach.

 - A lock is missing in cpufreq_governor_dbs() which leads to
   memory corruption and NULL pointer dereferences during
   system suspend/resume, for example.  Fix from Bibek Basu.

Thanks!
