There are four important device identification objects currently used in
the ACPI bus implementation:
_HID/_CID: traditional enumerated devicess use this object for ACPI device
matching.
_ADR: the ACPI device/physical device binding codes will use this to find
non-bridge devices.
_UID: the ACPI enumerated devices require this object to identify itself.
This patch set add the missing stuff useful for _UID in the ACPI devices.
Tow sysfs interfaces are also introduced to allow developers monitor _ADR
and _UID from the user space.
Version 2 of this patch set fixed CodingStyle issues. The two patches are
also combined to form a single patch set.
Lv Zheng (2):
ACPI: Add _UID support for ACPI devices.
ACPI: Add identification objects' user interface.
