Merge tag 'pm-5.19-rc1-2' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rafael/linux-pm
Pull more power management updates from Rafael Wysocki:
"These update the ARM cpufreq drivers and fix up the CPPC cpufreq
driver after recent changes, update the OPP code and PM documentation
and add power sequences support to the system reboot and power off
code.
Specifics:
- Add Tegra234 cpufreq support (Sumit Gupta)
- Clean up and enhance the Mediatek cpufreq driver (Wan Jiabing,
Rex-BC Chen, and Jia-Wei Chang)
- Fix up the CPPC cpufreq driver after recent changes (Zheng Bin,
Pierre Gondois)
- Minor update to dt-binding for Qcom's opp-v2-kryo-cpu (Yassine
Oudjana)
- Use list iterator only inside the list_for_each_entry loop
(Xiaomeng Tong, and Jakob Koschel)
- New APIs related to finding OPP based on interconnect bandwidth
(Krzysztof Kozlowski)
- Fix the missing of_node_put() in _bandwidth_supported() (Dan
Carpenter)
- Cleanups (Krzysztof Kozlowski, and Viresh Kumar)
- Add Out of Band mode description to the intel-speed-select utility
documentation (Srinivas Pandruvada)
- Add power sequences support to the system reboot and power off code
and make related platform-specific changes for multiple platforms
(Dmitry Osipenko, Geert Uytterhoeven)"
