Subject: [PATCH] ACPI: sysfs: Change ACPI_MASKABLE_GPE_MAX to 0x100
The commit 0f27cff8597d ("ACPI: sysfs: Make ACPI GPE mask kernel
parameter cover all GPEs") says:
"Use a bitmap of size 0xFF instead of a u64 for the GPE mask so 256
GPEs can be masked"
But the masking of GPE 0xFF it not supported and the check condition
"gpe > ACPI_MASKABLE_GPE_MAX" is not valid because the type of gpe is
u8.
So modify the macro ACPI_MASKABLE_GPE_MAX to 0x100, and drop the "gpe >
ACPI_MASKABLE_GPE_MAX" check. In addition, update the docs "Format" for
acpi_mask_gpe parameter.

We don't need this on 4.14 and older becuase they don't have
0f27cff8597d ("ACPI: sysfs: Make ACPI GPE mask kernel parameter cover
all GPEs").
