Hi Linus,

Please pull from the tag

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

with top-most commit e1db18b59729e24f001459b98955019344d5b12b

 Merge branches 'acpi-video' and 'acpi-scan'

on top of commit 0d02ec6b3136c73c09e7859f0d0e4e2c4c07b49b

 Linux 5.12-rc4

to receive ACPI fixes for 5.12-rc5.

These fix a memory management regression in ACPICA, repair an ACPI
blacklist entry damaged inadvertently during the 5.11 cycle and fix
the bookkeeping of devices with the same primary device ID in the
ACPI core.

Specifics:

 - Make ACPICA use the same object cache consistently when allocating
   and freeing objects (Vegard Nossum).

 - Add a callback pointer removed inadvertently during the 5.11 cycle
   to the ACPI backlight blacklist entry for Sony VPCEH3U1E (Chris
   Chiu).

 - Make the ACPI device enumeration core use IDA for creating names of
   ACPI device objects with the same primary device ID to avoid using
   duplicate device object names in some cases (Andy Shevchenko).

Thanks!
