Subject: [GIT PULL] ACPI fixes for v6.7-rc4

Hi Linus,

Please pull from the tag

 git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rafael/linux-pm.git \
 acpi-6.7-rc4

with top-most commit 7d4c44a53dade7103c3a9a928705db2326efba6f

 Merge branch 'acpi-tables'

on top of commit 2cc14f52aeb78ce3f29677c2de1f06c0e91471ab

 Linux 6.7-rc3

to receive ACPI fixes for 6.7-rc4.

This fix a recently introduced build issue on ARM32 and a NULL pointer
dereference in the ACPI backlight driver due to a design issue exposed
by a recent change in the ACPI bus type code.

Specifics:

 - Fix a recently introduced build issue on ARM32 platforms caused by an
   inadvertent header file breakage (Dave Jiang).

 - Eliminate questionable usage of acpi_driver_data() in the ACPI
   backlight cooling device code that leads to NULL pointer dereferences
   after recent ACPI core changes (Hans de Goede).

Thanks!
