Pull power management fixes from Rafael Wysocki:
 "These fix RTC wakeup from suspend-to-idle broken recently, fix CPU
  idleness detection condition in the schedutil cpufreq governor, fix a
  cpufreq driver build failure, fix an error code path in the power
  capping framework, clean up the hibernate core and update the
  intel_pstate documentation.

  Specifics:

   - Fix RTC wakeup from suspend-to-idle broken by the recent rework of
     ACPI wakeup handling (Rafael Wysocki).

   - Update intel_pstate driver documentation to reflect the current
     code and explain how it works in more detail (Rafael Wysocki).

   - Fix an issue related to CPU idleness detection on systems with
     shared cpufreq policies in the schedutil governor (Juri Lelli).

   - Fix a possible build issue in the dbx500 cpufreq driver (Arnd
     Bergmann).

   - Fix a function in the power capping framework core to return an
     error code instead of 0 when there's an error (Dan Carpenter).

   - Clean up variable definition in the hibernation core (Pushkar
     Jambhlekar)"
