From: Bjorn Helgaas <bjorn.helgaas@xxxxxx>
These patches remove several .start() methods (by folding them into
.add() methods) and a .stop() method (by folding it into .remove()).
There are no remaining .stop() methods, so I also removed it from
the driver_ops structure.
This simplifies the ACPI driver structure and will make it easier to
support hotplug in the Linux/ACPI core.
They also remove the KOBJ_ONLINE and KOBJ_OFFLINE events generated
by the processor driver for CPU hotplug events. As far as I know,
these events are unused.
I don't have a way to test most of these changes, unfortunately, so
I'd welcome any feedback or testing reports.
These apply to the acpi-test branch.
