There is no firmware "subsystem" it's just a directory in /sys that
other portions of the kernel want to hook into. So make it a kobject
not a kset to help alivate anyone who tries to do some odd kset-like
things with this.

We don't need a kset here, a simple kobject will do just fine, so
dynamically create the kobject and use it.

We don't need a "default" ktype for a kset. We should set this
explicitly every time for each kset. This change is needed so that we
can make ksets dynamic, and cleans up one of the odd, undocumented
assumption that the kset/kobject/ktype model has.
This patch is based on a lot of help from Kay Sievers.

Add leading zeros to pr_debug() calls. For example if x=0x0a, the format
"0x%2x" will result the string "0x a", the format "0x%2.2x" will result "0x0a".

This DMI blacklist reduces the console messages
on systems which have a BIOS that invokes OSI(Linux).
As the DMI blacklist already knows about these systems,
the request for DMI info itself is disabled.
Further, if OSI(Linux) has already been determined
to have no beneift, we disable the console message
requesting acpi_osi=Linux test results.

If BIOS invokes _OSI(Linux), the kernel response
depends on what the ACPI DMI list knows about the system,
and that is reflectd in dmesg:
1) System unknown to DMI:
ACPI: BIOS _OSI(Linux) query ignored
ACPI: DMI System Vendor: LENOVO
ACPI: DMI Product Name: 7661W1P
ACPI: DMI Product Version: ThinkPad T61

ACPI: DMI BIOS Vendor: LENOVO
ACPI: DMI BIOS Date: 10/18/2007
ACPI: Please send DMI info above to linux-acpi@vger.kernel.org
ACPI: If "acpi_osi=Linux" works better, please notify linux-acpi@vger.kernel.org
2) System known to DMI, but effect of OSI(Linux) unknown:
ACPI: DMI detected: Lenovo ThinkPad T61
...
ACPI: BIOS _OSI(Linux) query ignored via DMI
ACPI: If "acpi_osi=Linux" works better, please notify linux-acpi@vger.kernel.org
3) System known to DMI, which disables _OSI(Linux):
ACPI: DMI detected: Lenovo ThinkPad T61
...
ACPI: BIOS _OSI(Linux) query ignored via DMI
4) System known to DMI, which enable _OSI(Linux):
ACPI: DMI detected: Lenovo ThinkPad T61
ACPI: Added _OSI(Linux)
...
ACPI: BIOS _OSI(Linux) query honored via DMI
cmdline overrides take precidence over the built-in
default and the DMI prescribed default.
cmdline "acpi_osi=Linux" results in:

Linux does not want BIOS writers to invoke _OSI(Linux) -
for in the field it causes more Windows incompatibility problems
than it solves.
So when it is seen in the BIOS for an Intel Customer Reference Board,
Linux should ignore its effect by default, and should complain loudly.
Otherwise, the reference BIOS will go unfixed, and the bad BIOS
will spread to the field.
Users of this board can get the old behavior with "acpi_osi=Linux"
As this was the only entry, delete acpi_osl_dmi_table[].

ACPI and APM used "pm_active" to guarantee that
they would not be simultaneously active.
But pm_active was recently moved under CONFIG_PM_LEGACY,
so that without CONFIG_PM_LEGACY, pm_active became a NOP --
allowing ACPI and APM to both be simultaneously enabled.
This caused unpredictable results, including boot hangs.
Further, the code under CONFIG_PM_LEGACY is scheduled
for removal.
So replace pm_active with pm_flags.
pm_flags depends only on CONFIG_PM,
which is present for both CONFIG_APM and CONFIG_ACPI.

ACPI Exception (acpi_processor-0677): AE_NOT_FOUND, Processor Device is not
present [20060707]
According to the ACPI spec 6.3.7,
"If a device object (including the processor object) does not have an
_STA object, then OSPM assumes that all of the above bits are set,
(in other words, the device is present, enabled, shown in the UI
and funtioning)".
is_processor_present shoud return 1 if the processor device object exists
while it doesn't have an _STA object.

There have been fixes using _PPC, which seem to unhide a problem
on HP nx6125 (double cpufreq switch freezes the machine for
several seconds).
This one should provide a workaround for the nx6125 and for
possible other machines that show any weird _PPC behaviour.

In function acpi_system_write_alarm in file drivers/acpi/sleep/proc.c,
big sec, min, hr, mo, day and yr are counted twice to get reasonable
values, that is very superfluous, we can do that only once.
In additon, /proc/acpi/alarm can set a related value which can be
specified as YYYY years MM months DD days HH hours MM minutes SS
senconds, it isn't a date, so you can specify as +0000-00-00 96:00:00
, that means 3 days later, current code can't handle such a case.
This patch removes unnecessary code and does with the aforementioned
situation.

ACPI tables follow a tree structure in memory.
The root of the tree is the RSDP (Root System Description Pointer).
To find the RSDP, the OS searches for the signature "RSD PTR "
in well known physical memory locations. Then the OS computes
a table checksum to verify that the signature is really part
of a valid table header.
Some systems have a proper signature but an invalid checksum;
followed elsewhere by a proper signature with valid checksum.
http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=9444
The Linux RSDP scanning code bailed out on those systems
and as a result they booted with ACPI disabled.
Fix this by deleting the Linux RSDP scanning code and
plugging in the ACPICA RSDP scanning code.

More aggressively request deep C-states.
Note that the job of the OS is to minimize latency
impact to expected break events such as interrupts.
It is not the job of the OS to try to calculate if
the C-state will reach energy break-even.
The platform doesn't give the OS enough information
for it to make that calculation. Thus, it is up
to the platform to decide if it is worth it to
go as deep as the OS requested it to, or if it
should internally demote to a more shallow C-state.
But the converse is not true. The platform can not
promote into a deeper C-state than the OS requested
else it may violate latency constraints. So it is
important that the OS be aggressive in giving the
platform permission to enter deep C-states.

The ->cap fields of struct acpi_video_device and struct acpi_video_bus
are 1B each, not 4B. The oversized memset()'s corrupted the subsequent
list_head fields. This resulted in silent corruption without
CONFIG_DEBUG_LIST and BUG's with it. This patch uses sizeof() to pass
the proper bounds to the memset() calls and thereby correct the bugs.
