Hi Christpph,
I thought 100 col. lines were acceptable now.

Agreed on both of the above comments - these are just boilerplate for
now, I expect they will get filled in in the next revision as more
functionality gets fleshed out. If they are still empty/no-op by then I
will remove them.

This gets a bit more fleshed out in patch 2. I kept that separate so
that it is easier to review the bulk of the _OSC work in that patch
without this driver boilerplate getting in the way.

For both of these - see the note in the commit message. I just followed
the ACPI header's style, and these hunks are only in this series to make
it usable. I expect the 'actual' struct definitions, naming etc will
come through ACPICA.
