Merge tag 'acpi-6.17-rc2' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rafael/linux-pm
Pull ACPI fixes from Rafael Wysocki: "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 thouchpad 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)" * tag 'acpi-6.17-rc2' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rafael/linux-pm: ACPI: EC: Relax sanity check of the ECDT ID string ACPI: processor: perflib: Move problematic pr->performance check
