[PATCH 4/7] Documentation: ACPI: Update references

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Update references for the ACPI _DSD documentation. In particular:

- Substitute _DSD property and hierarchical data extension documents with
  the newer DSD guide that replaces both, and use its HTML form.

- Refer to the latest ACPI spec.

- Add data node reference documentation reference to graph documentation.
