Subject: [GIT PULL][Resend] ACPI fixes for v5.11-rc6

[Resending, because it hasn't made it to the mailing lists, not sure why.]

Hi Linus,

Please pull from the tag

 git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rafael/linux-pm.git \
 acpi-5.11-rc6

with top-most commit b584b7e9630acc65a4d01ff5f9090d1a0fb3bbb6

 Merge branch 'acpi-sysfs'

on top of commit 6ee1d745b7c9fd573fba142a2efdad76a9f1cb04

 Linux 5.11-rc5

to receive ACPI fixes for 5.11-rc6.

These fix the handling of notifications in the ACPI thermal driver
and address a device enumeration issue leading to the presence of
multiple MODALIAS entries in one uevent file in sysfs in some cases.

Specifics:

 - Modify the ACPI thermal driver to avoid evaluating _TMP directly
   in its Notify () handler callback and running too many thermal
   checks for one thermal zone at the same time so as to address a
   work item accumulation issue observed on some systems that fail
   to shut down as a result of it (Rafael Wysocki).

 - Modify the ACPI uevent file creation code to avoid putting
   multiple MODALIAS entries in one uevent file in sysfs which
   breaks systemd-udevd (Kai-Heng Feng).

Thanks!

      ACPI: sysfs: Prefer "compatible" modalias

      ACPI: thermal: Do not call acpi_thermal_check() directly
