Subject: [GIT PULL] ACPI fixes for v4.14-rc2

Hi Linus,

Please pull from the tag

 git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rafael/linux-pm.git \
 acpi-4.14-rc2

with top-most commit 672d0e4502a22364b298f9307f651c1b8313514b

 Merge branches 'acpi-pmic', 'acpi-bus', 'acpi-wdat' and 'acpi-properties'

on top of commit 2bd6bf03f4c1c59381d62c61d03f6cc3fe71f66e

 Linux 4.14-rc1

to receive ACPI fixes for v4.14-rc2.

These fix the initialization of resources in the ACPI WDAT watchdog
driver, a recent regression in the ACPI device properties handling,
a recent change in behavior causing the ACPI_HANDLE() macro to only
work for GPL code and create a MAINTAINERS entry for ACPI PMIC
drivers in order to specify the official reviewers for that code.

Specifics:

 - Fix the initialization of resources in the ACPI WDAT watchdog
   driver that uses unititialized memory which causes compiler
   warnings to be triggered (Arnd Bergmann).

 - Fix a recent regression in the ACPI device properties handling
   that causes some device properties data to be skipped during
   enumeration (Sakari Ailus).

 - Fix a recent change in behavior that caused the ACPI_HANDLE()
   macro to stop working for non-GPL code which is a problem for
   the NVidia binary graphics driver, for example (John Hubbard).

 - Add a MAINTAINERS entry for the ACPI PMIC drivers to specify
   the official reviewers for that code (Rafael Wysocki).

Thanks!
