[PATCH 1/3] ACPI: introduce macros for using the ACPI specification version

From: al.stone at linaro.org <hidden>
Date: 2015-06-11 19:45:30
Also in: linux-acpi, lkml
Subsystem: acpi, the rest · Maintainers: "Rafael J. Wysocki", Linus Torvalds

From: Al Stone <redacted>

Add the ACPI_SPEC_VERSION() macro to build a proper version number from
a major and minor revision number.  Add also the ACPI_FADT_SPEC_VERSION
that constructs a proper version number from the entries in the current
FADT.

These macros are added in order to simplify retrieving and comparing ACPI
specification version numbers, since this is becoming a more frequent need.
In particular, there are some architectures that require at least a certain
version of the spec, and there are differences in some structure sizes that
have changed with recent versions but can only be tracked by spec version
number.
