Pull ACPI fixes from Rafael Wysocki:
"These revert an ACPICA commit from the 4.11 cycle that causes problems
to happen on some systems and add a protection against possible kernel
crashes due to table reference counter imbalance.
Specifics:
- Revert a 4.11 ACPICA change that made assumptions which are not
satisfied on some systems and caused the enumeration of resources
to fail on them (Rafael Wysocki).
- Add a mechanism to prevent tables from being unmapped prematurely
due to reference counter overflows (Lv Zheng)"

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
