[PATCH/RFC] exposing ACPI objects in sysfs

[Alex Williamson]

   I've lost track of how many of these patches I've done, but here's
the much anticipated next revision ;^)  The purpose of this patch is to
expose ACPI objects in the already existing namespace in sysfs
(/sys/firmware/acpi/namespace/ACPI).  There's a lot of information
currently available in ACPI namespace, but no way to get at it from
userspace.  What's new in this version:

      * Untied from acpi_bus_scan() to be made standalone - loadable as
        a module now!
      * Removed some questionable interfaces (arg count, saving and re-
        loading AML).  If you don't know how many args a method takes,
        don't call it.  The other stuff was likely far too dangerous
        anyway.
      * Re-worked the writing of method parameters.  Now users should
        write an acpi_object_list structure to the object.  All pointers
        should be replaced by offsets into the buffer, just like return
        buffers, packages and strings previously
      * Added "nonstd" and "dangerous" module options to limit what
        namespace objects get exposed.  I'm sure these need refinement,
        but at least a little protection from shooting yourself in the
        foot.
      * Numerous fixes and cleanups

   Changes to existing kernel code are pretty trivial now.  The major
change is adding open() and release() functions to the sysfs bin_file
support.  This allows backing store on a per-open basis, and eliminates
multiple reader/writer problems.  Besides, it seems reasonable for a
file entry to able to have a little more control over it's private_data
structure.

  The other generic kernel change is to export acpi_os_allocate(). This
is because I chose to use acpi_buffers for internal management and
wanted a consistent alloc/free interface for them.  I'd be happy to
separate these into individual patches if they're acceptable.

   I'll try to make my debug utility available shortly so people can
poke around on their systems and see what's available.  For a lot of
things, using xxd to dump the object provides some info and is
sufficient for _ON/_OFF type methods.  Let me know if you have any
feedback or bug reports.  Patch is against current bitkeeper, but should
apply against almost anything recent.  Thanks,

	Alex

PS - I added a version interface, but please don't consider anything
stable at this point.
