Merge tag 'pm+acpi-3.12-rc3' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rafael/linux-pm

Pull ACPI and power management fixes from Rafael Wysocki:
 "These fix one recent cpufreq regression, a few older bugs that may
  harm users and a kerneldoc typo.

  Specifics:

   1) After the recent locking changes in the cpufreq core it is
      possible to trigger BUG_ON(!policy) in lock_policy_rwsem_read() if
      cpufreq_get() is called before registering a cpufreq driver.  Fix
      from Viresh Kumar.

   2) If intel_pstate has been loaded already, it doesn't make sense to
      do anything in acpi_cpufreq_init() and moreover doing something in
      there in that case may be harmful, so make that function return
      immediately if another cpufreq driver is already present.  From
      Yinghai Lu.

   3) The ACPI IPMI driver sometimes attempts to acquire a mutex from
      interrupt context, which can be avoided by replacing that mutex
      with a spinlock.  From Lv Zheng.

   4) A NULL pointer may be dereferenced by the exynos5440 cpufreq
      driver if a memory allocation made by it fails.  Fix from Sachin
      Kamat.

   5) Hanjun Guo's commit fixes a typo in the kerneldoc comment
      documenting acpi_bus_unregister_driver()"
