      Pull ACPI fixes from Rafael Wysocki:
       "These revert one more problematic commit related to the ACPI-based
        handling of laptop lids and make some unuseful error messages coming
        from ACPICA go away.
      
        Specifics:
      
         - Revert one more commit related to the ACPI-based handling of laptop
           lids that changed the default behavior on laptops that booted with
           closed lids and introduced a regression there (Benjamin Tissoires).
      
         - Add a missing acpi_put_table() to the code implementing the
           /sys/firmware/acpi/tables interface to prevent a counter in the
           ACPICA core from overflowing (Dan Williams).
      
         - Drop error messages printed by ACPICA on acpi_get_table() reference
           counting mismatches as they need not indicate real errors at this
           point (Lv Zheng)"

        Specifics:
      
         - Make cpufreq_register_driver() return an error if the ->init()
           calls fail for all CPUs to prevent non-functional drivers from
           hanging around for no reason (David Arcari).
      
         - Make kirkwood-cpufreq check the return value of
           clk_prepare_enable() (which may fail) as appropriate (Arvind

      scripts/gdb: make lx-dmesg command work (reliably) · d6c97087
      André Draszik authored
      lx-dmesg needs access to the log_buf symbol from printk.c.
      Unfortunately, the symbol log_buf also exists in BPF's verifier.c and
      hence gdb can pick one or the other.  If it happens to pick BPF's
      log_buf, lx-dmesg doesn't work:
      
        (gdb) lx-dmesg
        Python Exception <class 'gdb.MemoryError'> Cannot access memory at address 0x0:
        Error occurred in Python command: Cannot access memory at address 0x0
        (gdb) p log_buf
        $15 = 0x0
      
      Luckily, GDB has a way to deal with this, see
        https://sourceware.org/gdb/onlinedocs/gdb/Symbols.html
      
        (gdb) info variables ^log_buf$
        All variables matching regular expression "^log_buf$":
      
        File <linux.git>/kernel/bpf/verifier.c:
        static char *log_buf;
      
        File <linux.git>/kernel/printk/printk.c:
        static char *log_buf;
        (gdb) p 'verifier.c'::log_buf
        $1 = 0x0
        (gdb) p 'printk.c'::log_buf
        $2 = 0x811a6aa0 <__log_buf> ""
        (gdb) p &log_buf
        $3 = (char **) 0x8120fe40 <log_buf>
        (gdb) p &'verifier.c'::log_buf
        $4 = (char **) 0x8120fe40 <log_buf>
        (gdb) p &'printk.c'::log_buf
        $5 = (char **) 0x8048b7d0 <log_buf>
      
      By being explicit about the location of the symbol, we can make lx-dmesg
      work again.  While at it, do the same for the other symbols we need from
      printk.c

      the reason is that the managed memory is too low (only 110MB) while the
      rest of the the 50GB is still waiting for the deferred intialization to
      be done.  update_defer_init estimates the initial memoty to initialize
      to 2GB at least but it doesn't consider any memory allocated in that
      range.  In this particular case we've had
      
      	Reserving 4096MB of memory at 128MB for crashkernel (System RAM: 51200MB)
      
      so the low 2GB is mostly depleted.
      
      Fix this by considering memblock allocations in the initial static
      initialization estimation.  Move the max_initialise to
      reset_deferred_meminit and implement a simple memblock_reserved_memory
      helper which iterates all reserved blocks and sums the size of all that
      start below the given address.  The cumulative size is than added on top
      of the initial estimation.  This is still not ideal because
      reset_deferred_meminit doesn't consider holes and so reservation might
      be above the initial estimation whihch we ignore but let's make the
      logic simpler until we really need to handle more complicated cases.
