Merge tag 'devprop-4.12-rc1' of git://git./linux/kernel/git/rafael/linux-pm

Pull generic device properties framework updates from Rafael Wysocki:
 "These add support for the ports and endpoints concepts, based on the
  existing DT support for them, to the generic device properties
  framework and update the ACPI _DSD properties code to recognize ports
  and endpoints accordingly.

  Specifics:

   - Extend the ACPI _DSD properties code and the generic device
     properties framework to support the concept of remote endponts
     (Mika Westerberg, Sakari Ailus).

   - Document the support for ports and endpoints in _DSD properties and
     extend the generic device properties framework to make it more
     suitable for the handling of ports and endpoints (Sakari Ailus)"
