cbbc0de700 ACPI: Use GPE reference counting to support shared GPEs
To fix a bug and address the reviewers' comments regarding the ACPI
GPE refcounting patch, do the following additional changes:

o Remove the second argument of acpi_ev_enable_gpe(),
  'write_to_hardware', because it is not necessary any more.

o Add the "bad parameter" test against 'type' in
  acpi_enable_gpe() and acpi_disable_gpe().

o Make acpi_enable_gpe() only check 'status' for runtime GPEs if
  acpi_ev_enable_gpe() was actually called.

o Make acpi_disable_gpe() return 'status' returned by
  acpi_ev_disable_gpe() and fix a bug where ACPI_GPE_TYPE_WAKE
  and ACPI_GPE_TYPE_RUNTIME were exchanged by mistake.

o Add comments explaining why acpi_set_gpe() is used by the ACPI EC
  driver.

3f0be67188 ACPI / ACPICA: Multiple system notify handlers per device
Currently it only is possible to install one system notify handler
per namespace node, but this is not enough for PCI run-time power
management, because we need to install power management notifiers for
devices that already have hotplug notifiers installed.  While in
principle this could be handled at the PCI level, that would be
suboptimal due to the way in which the ACPI-based PCI hotplug code is
designed.

For this reason, modify ACPICA so that it is possible to install more
than one system notify handler per namespace node.  Namely, make
acpi_install_notify_handler(), acpi_remove_notify_handler() and
acpi_ev_notify_dispatch() use a list of system notify handler objects
associated with a namespace node.

Make acpi_remove_notify_handler() call acpi_os_wait_events_complete()
upfront to avoid a situation in which concurrent instance of
acpi_remove_notify_handler() removes the handler from under us while
we're waiting for the event queues to flush.

9630bdd9b1 ACPI: Use GPE reference counting to support shared GPEs
ACPI GPEs may map to multiple devices.  The current GPE interface
only provides a mechanism for enabling and disabling GPEs, making
it difficult to change the state of GPEs at runtime without extensive
cooperation between devices.

Add an API to allow devices to indicate whether or not they want
their device's GPE to be enabled for both runtime and wakeup events.

Remove the old GPE type handling entirely, which gets rid of various
quirks, like the implicit disabling with GPE type setting. This
requires a small amount of rework in order to ensure that non-wake
GPEs are enabled by default to preserve existing behaviour.

Based on patches from Matthew Garrett <mjg@redhat.com>.

e3fe0913b8 ACPICA: Fix memory leak for ill-formed Package objects
Fixes a possible memory leak in the interpreter for package
objects if the package initializer list is longer than the
defined size of the package. This apparently can only happen
if the BIOS changes the package size on the fly (seen in a _PSS
object), as both iASL and the other compiler do not allow this.
The interpreter will truncate the package to the defined size
(and issue an error message), but can leave the extra objects
undeleted if they have been pre-created during the argument
processing (such is the case if the package consists of a number
of sub-packages as in the _PSS.) ACPICA BZ 805.
