Subject: [GIT PULL] Power management updates for v6.17-rc2

Hi Linus,

Please pull from the tag

 git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rafael/linux-pm.git \
 pm-6.17-rc2

with top-most commit 5302e2a3886c830b803ae3390b9d41d35832f315

 Merge branches 'pm-cpuidle' and 'pm-cpufreq'

on top of commit 8f5ae30d69d7543eee0d70083daf4de8fe15d585

 Linux 6.17-rc1

to receive power management updates for 6.17-rc2.

These remove an artificial limitation from the intel_idle driver,
update the menu cpuidle governor to restore its previous behavior
in a corner case and add one more supported platform configuration
to the intel_pstate driver:

 - Allow intel_idle to use _CST information from ACPI tables for
   idle states enumeration on any family of processors (Len Brown).

 - Restore corner case behavior of the menu cpuidle governor, related
   to the handling of systems where idle states selected by the governor
   are rejected by the cpuidle driver, inadvertently changed during the
   6.15 development cycle (Rafael Wysocki).

 - Add support for Clearwater Forest in the out-of-band (OOB) mode to
   the intel_pstate driver (Srinivas Pandruvada).

Thanks!
