    driver core / ACPI: Move ACPI support to core device and driver types · 06f64c8f
    Mika Westerberg 提交于
    With ACPI 5 we are starting to see devices that don't natively support
    discovery but can be enumerated with the help of the ACPI namespace.
    Typically, these devices can be represented in the Linux device driver
    model as platform devices or some serial bus devices, like SPI or I2C
    devices.
    
    Since we want to re-use existing drivers for those devices, we need a
    way for drivers to specify the ACPI IDs of supported devices, so that
    they can be matched against device nodes in the ACPI namespace.  To
    this end, it is sufficient to add a pointer to an array of supported
    ACPI device IDs, that can be provided by the driver, to struct device.
    
    Moreover, things like ACPI power management need to have access to
    the ACPI handle of each supported device, because that handle is used
    to invoke AML methods associated with the corresponding ACPI device
    node.  The ACPI handles of devices are now stored in the archdata
    member structure of struct device whose definition depends on the
    architecture and includes the ACPI handle only on x86 and ia64. Since
    the pointer to an array of supported ACPI IDs is added to struct
    device_driver in an architecture-independent way, it is logical to
    move the ACPI handle from archdata to struct device itself at the same
    time.  This also makes code more straightforward in some places and
    follows the example of Device Trees that have a poiter to struct
    device_node in there too.
    
    This changeset is based on Mika Westerberg's work.
