Subject: [GIT PULL] ACPI fixes for v6.17-rc2

Hi Linus,

Please pull from the tag

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

with top-most commit 40f2f1aa62578547e2977e8c0516048e0b71018c

 Merge branches 'acpi-ec' and 'acpi-processor'

on top of commit 8f5ae30d69d7543eee0d70083daf4de8fe15d585

 Linux 6.17-rc1

to receive ACPI fixes for 6.17-rc2.

These restore corner case behavior of the EC driver related to the
handling of defective ACPI tables and fix a recent regression in the
ACPI processor driver:

 - Prevent the ACPI EC driver from ignoring ECDT information in the
   cases when the ID string in the ECDT is invalid, but not empty, to
   fix touchpad detection on ThinkBook 14 G7 IML (Armin Wolf).

 - Rearrange checks in acpi_processor_ppc_init() to restore the handling
   of frequency QoS requests related to _PPC limits inadvertently broken
   by a recent update (Rafael Wysocki).

Thanks!
