From: Al Stone <al.stone@xxxxxxxxxx> To enable the hardware reduced mode of ACPI on some platforms (such as ARM), we need to modify the kernel code and set ACPI_REDUCED_HARDWARE to TRUE in the ACPICA source. This can be done more resonably by introducing a kernel config item to enable/disable ACPI_REDUCED_HARDWARE. We can then change the kernel config instead of having to modify the kernel source directly to enable the reduced hardware mode of ACPI. Lv Zheng suggested that this configuration item does not belong in ACPICA, the upstream source for much of the ACPI internals, but rather to the Linux kernel itself. Hence, we introduce this flag so that we can make ACPI_REDUCED_HARDWARE configurable.
