Some peripherals on Bay Trail and Cherry Trail platforms signal a
Power Management Event (PME) to the Power Management Controller (PMC)
to wakeup the system. When this happens software needs to explicitly
clear the PME bus 0 status bit in the GPE0a_STS register to avoid an
IRQ storm on IRQ 9.
This is modelled in ACPI through the INT0002 ACPI device, which is
called a "Virtual GPIO controller" in ACPI because it defines the
event handler to call when the PME triggers through _AEI and _L02
methods as would be done for a real GPIO interrupt in ACPI.
This commit adds a driver which registers the Virtual GPIOs expected
by the DSDT on these devices, letting gpiolib-acpi claim the
virtual GPIO and install a GPIO-interrupt handler which call the _L02
handler as it would for a real GPIO controller.
Pushed to testing w/o Linus' tag (there is no one yet)
Will you be taking this through fixes Andy? For a 4.12-rc* target per Hans'
response to the cover letter?
Note that Rafael is planning to drop (revert) the commit which makes
it (extra) desirable for this driver to get into 4.12, so we should
perhaps reconsider that. I'm fine either way, but the primary reason
to push this as a fix for 4.12 is no longer valid AFAICT.

Hans
