Two more documentation files are also being added:
(1) A verbatim copy of the "Why ACPI on ARM?" blog posting by Grant Likely,
    which is also summarized in arm-acpi.txt, and
This doesn't belong in the kernel tree.
(2) A section by section review of the ACPI spec (acpi_object_usage.txt)
    to note recommendations and prohibitions on the use of the numerous
    ACPI tables and objects.  This sets out the current expectations of
    the firmware by Linux very explicitly (or as explicitly as I can, for
    now).
I'll follow up with any comments on this separately (I.e. haven't read it yet).
