ACPI: support acpi_device_ops .notify methods
This patch adds support for ACPI device driver .notify() methods. If such a method is present, Linux/ACPI installs a handler for device notifications (but not for system notifications such as Bus Check, Device Check, etc). When a device notification occurs, Linux/ACPI passes it on to the driver's .notify() method. In most cases, this removes the need for drivers to install their own handlers for device-specific notifications. For fixed hardware devices like some power and sleep buttons, there's no notification value because there's no control method to execute a Notify opcode. When a fixed hardware device generates an event, we handle it the same as a regular device notification, except we send a ACPI_FIXED_HARDWARE_EVENT value. This is outside the normal 0x0-0xff range used by Notify opcodes. Several drivers install their own handlers for system Bus Check and Device Check notifications so they can support hot-plug. This patch doesn't affect that usage. Signed-off-by: Bjorn Helgaas <bjorn.helgaas@hp.com> Reviewed-by: Alex Chiang <achiang@hp.com> Signed-off-by: Len Brown <len.brown@intel.com>
