	Sync x86_64 up to i386.
	SCI trigger/polarity fix
	yenta interrupt fix
	toshiba panic on 4G/4G fix
	etc.

thanks,

<bjorn.helgaas-VXdhtT5mjnY@public.gmane.org> (04/03/21 1.1608.1.47)
   [PATCH] clean up ACPI GSI/IRQ conversions (i386 part)
   
   Add "acpi_gsi_to_irq()" as a generic replacement for
"acpi_irq_to_vector()".
   This converts from an ACPI global system interrupt number to a Linux
IRQ.
   Also, convert i386-specific terminology to use GSI when appropriate.

<len.brown-ral2JQCrhuEAvxtiuMwx3w@public.gmane.org> (04/03/17 1.1608.1.44)
   [ACPI] check "maxcpus=N" early -- same as NR_CPUS check.
   http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2317
   
   When the BIOS enumerates physical processors before logical,
   maxcpus=N/2 will now effectively disable HT.
   
   This can be verified by boot messages warning that HT is off:
   eg. "maxcpus=2" on a 2xHT system:
   
   Total of 2 processors activated (11141.12 BogoMIPS).
   WARNING: No sibling found for CPU 0.
   WARNING: No sibling found for CPU 1.
