Below you will find an updated version from the original series bunching all patches into one big patch
updating broken web addresses that are located in Documentation/*
Some of the addresses date as far far back as 1995 etc... so searching became a bit difficult,
the best way to deal with these is to use web.archive.org to locate these addresses that are outdated.
Now there are also some addresses pointing to .spec files some are located, but some(after searching
on the companies site)where still no where to be found. In this case I just changed the address
to the company site this way the users can contact the company and they can locate them for the users.

I power management document, Documentation/power/pci.txt, is
outdated and partially inaccurate. It also is missing some important
information about the power management of PCI device. Rewrite it to
make it more up to date and more complete.

This patch changes the string based list management to a handle base
implementation to help with the hot path use of pm-qos, it also renames
much of the API to use "request" as opposed to "requirement" that was
used in the initial implementation. I did this because request more
accurately represents what it actually does.
Also, I added a string based ABI for users wanting to use a string
interface. So if the user writes 0xDDDDDDDD formatted hex it will be
accepted by the interface. (someone asked me for it and I don't think
it hurts anything.)
This patch updates some documentation input I got from Randy.

The device PM document, Documentation/power/devices.txt, is badly
outdated and requires total rework to fit the current design of the
PM framework. Make it more up to date.

There are subsystems whose power management callbacks only need to
invoke the callbacks provided by device drivers. Still, their system
sleep PM callbacks should play well with the runtime PM callbacks,
so that devices suspended at run time can be left in that state for
a system sleep transition.
Provide a set of generic PM callbacks for such subsystems and
define convenience macros for populating dev_pm_ops structures.

The power.runtime_auto device flag and the helper functions
pm_runtime_allow() and pm_runtime_forbid() used to modify it are a
part of the run-time power management framework and therefore they
should be described in Documentation/power/runtime_pm.txt.

This patch (as1318) updates the runtime PM documentation, adding a

The power management of some devices is handled through device types
and device classes rather than through bus types. Since these
devices may also benefit from using the run-time power management
core, extend it so that the device type and device class run-time PM
callbacks can be taken into consideration by it if the bus type
callback is not defined.
Update the run-time PM core documentation to reflect this change.

Apparently, there are devices that can wake up the system from sleep
states and yet are incapable of generating wake-up events at run
time. Thus, introduce a flag indicating if given device is capable
of generating run-time wake-up events.

Currently the ->runtime_idle() callback is documented as having no
return value, but in fact it returns int. Although its return value
is ignored at the PM core level, it may be used by bus type routines
executing the drivers' ->runtime_idle() callbacks.
