Documentation: ACPI: enumeration: add PCI hierarchy representation
For "fixed" PCI devices, such as chips directly soldered on the main board (ethernet, Wi-Fi, serial ports, etc.), it is possible to find an ACPI enumeration. This allows to add useful properties to these devices. Just for an example: the property "gpio-line-names" can be added to the pins of a GPIO expander on the PCI bus. In order to find the ACPI name of a PCI device, it's necessary to disassemble the BIOS ACPI tables (in particular the DSDT) and also to analyze the PCI bus topology of the board. This patch, with a practical example, show how to do this.
