      kernel: use the gnu89 standard explicitly · 51b97e35
      Kirill A. Shutemov authored
      
      
      Sasha Levin reports:
       "gcc5 changes the default standard to c11, which makes kernel build
        unhappy
      
        Explicitly define the kernel standard to be gnu89 which should keep
        everything working exactly like it was before gcc5"
      
      There are multiple small issues with the new default, but the biggest
      issue seems to be that the old - and very useful - GNU extension to
      allow a cast in front of an initializer has gone away.
      
      Patch updated by Kirill:
       "I'm pretty sure all gcc versions you can build kernel with supports
        -std=gnu89.  cc-option is redunrant.
      
        We also need to adjust HOSTCFLAGS otherwise allmodconfig fails for me"
      
      Note by Andrew Pinski:
       "Yes it was reported and both problems relating to this extension has
        been added to gnu99 and gnu11.  Though there are other issues with the
        kernel dealing with extern inline have different semantics between
        gnu89 and gnu99/11"
      
      End result: we may be able to move up to a newer stdc model eventually,
      but right now the newer models have some annoying deficiencies, so the
      traditional "gnu89" model ends up being the preferred one.

      Pull ACPI and power management fixes from Rafael Wysocki:
       "These are three regression fixes, two recent (generic power domains,
        suspend-to-idle) and one older (cpufreq), an ACPI blacklist entry for
        one more machine having problems with Windows 8 compatibility, a minor
        cpufreq driver fix (cpufreq-dt) and a fixup for new callback
        definitions (generic power domains).
      
        Specifics:
      
         - Fix a crash in the suspend-to-idle code path introduced by a recent
           commit that forgot to check a pointer against NULL before
           dereferencing it (Dmitry Eremin-Solenikov).
      
         - Fix a boot crash on Exynos5 introduced by a recent commit making
           that platform use generic Device Tree bindings for power domains
           which exposed a weakness in the generic power domains framework
           leading to that crash (Ulf Hansson).
      
         - Fix a crash during system resume on systems where cpufreq depends
           on Operation Performance Points (OPP) for functionality, but
           CONFIG_OPP is not set.  This leads the cpufreq driver registration
           to fail, but the resume code attempts to restore the pre-suspend
           cpufreq configuration (which does not exist) nevertheless and
           crashes.  From Geert Uytterhoeven.
      
         - Add a new ACPI blacklist entry for Dell Vostro 3546 that has
           problems if it is reported as Windows 8 compatible to the BIOS
           (Adam Lee).
      
         - Fix swapped arguments in an error message in the cpufreq-dt driver
           (Abhilash Kesavan).
      
         - Fix up the prototypes of new callbacks in struct generic_pm_domain
           to make them more useful.  Users of those callbacks will be added
           in 3.19 and it's better for them to be based on the correct struct
