Subject: [GIT PULL] ACPI fixes for v6.17-rc3

Hi Linus,

Please pull from the tag

 git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rafael/linux-pm.git \
 acpi-6.17-rc3

with top-most commit 670b51121ed09ff3a41539243407e4bd52eea9f4

 Merge branches 'acpi-apei' and 'acpi-pfrut'

on top of commit c17b750b3ad9f45f2b6f7e6f7f4679844244f0b9

 Linux 6.17-rc2

to receive ACPI fixes for 6.17-rc3.

These fix three new issues in the ACPI APEI error injection code and
an ACPI platform firmware runtime update interface issue:

 - Make ACPI APEI error injection check the version of the request when
   mapping the EINJ parameter structure in the BIOS reserved memory to
   prevent injecting errors based on an uninitialized field (Tony Luck)

 - Fix potential NULL dereference in __einj_error_inject() that may
   occur when memory allocation fails (Charles Han)

 - Remove the __exit annotation from einj_remove(), so it can be called
   on errors during faux device probe (Uwe Kleine-König)

 - Use a security-version-number check instead of a runtime version
   check during ACPI platform firmware runtime driver updates to prevent
   those updates from failing due to false-positive driver version check
   failures (Chen Yu)

Thanks!
