ACPICA serialized objects?

I want to bundle up an arbitrary ACPI_OBJECT into a copyable stream of
bytes, is there some standard way to do this?

I'm asking because I want to try to upstream something resembling the
rusty old acpi_call module to allow users with debugfs access who are
willing to taint their kernel to evaluate ACPI objects from userspace.
Presumably there would be a user tool to get object info and to
evaluate methods, and we could handle translation to/from strings in
userspace, but I still need some way to shove the data back and forth.

Thanks,
Andy
