I should have mentioned that the following two patches are not included:

https://patchwork.kernel.org/project/linux-acpi/patch/20230329100951.1522322-9-sakari.ailus@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx/
https://patchwork.kernel.org/project/linux-acpi/patch/20230329100951.1522322-10-sakari.ailus@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx/

because I don't agree with the idea of renaming device properties in place.

Also not included is the documentation patch, because comments are
added by the individual patches making changes in the code.

Thanks!
