For the ACPI part we need to have the dummy stub because CONFIG_ACPI is needed in order to be able to call the ACPI APIs -- there are still functions that are only available when CONFIG_ACPI is enabled. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-acpi" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
