Subject: [GIT PULL] Power management fixes for v4.8-rc6

Hi Linus,

Please pull from the tag

 git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rafael/linux-pm.git \
 pm-4.8-rc6

to receive power management fixes for v4.8-rc6.

The top-most commit is 8a2a835bbcaa6af0ec659606d3eabc23ccaaab80

 Merge branches 'pm-core-fixes' and 'pm-cpufreq-fixes'

and the base is commit c6935931c1894ff857616ff8549b61236a19148f

 Linux 4.8-rc5

This includes a PM QoS framework fix from Tejun to prevent interrupts
from being enabled unexpectedly during early boot and a cpufreq
documentation fix.

Specifics:

 - If the PM QoS framework invokes cancel_delayed_work_sync() during
   early boot, it will enable interrupts which is not expected at
   that point, so prevent it from happening (Tejun Heo).

 - Fix cpufreq statistic documentation to follow a recent change in
   behavior that forgot to update it as appropriate (Jean Delvare).

Thanks!
