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, andThis 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). -Olof
