This patchset was initially provided in a larger series that was split in two [1]. This part only provides support for the SPIB register support, added on Intel platforms since Skylake (2015).
The use of the SPIB register helps reduce power consumption - though to a smaller degree than DMI_L1. This hardware capability is however incompatible with userspace-initiated rewinds typically used by PulseAudio.

All being well this means that it will be integrated into the linux-next tree (usually sometime in the next 24 hours) and sent to Linus during the next merge window (or sooner if it is a bug fix), however if problems are discovered then the patch may be dropped or reverted.
You may get further e-mails resulting from automated or manual testing and review of the tree, please engage with people reporting problems and send followup patches addressing any issues that are reported if needed.
If any updates are required or you are submitting further changes they should be sent as incremental updates against current git, existing patches will not be replaced.
Please add any relevant lists and maintainers to the CCs when replying to this mail.
Thanks, Mark
