      ACPI: ACPICA 20060623 · 967440e3
      Bob Moore authored
      Implemented a new acpi_spinlock type for the OSL lock
      interfaces.  This allows the type to be customized to
      the host OS for improved efficiency (since a spinlock is
      usually a very small object.)
      
      Implemented support for "ignored" bits in the ACPI
      registers.  According to the ACPI specification, these
      bits should be preserved when writing the registers via
      a read/modify/write cycle. There are 3 bits preserved
      in this manner: PM1_CONTROL[0] (SCI_EN), PM1_CONTROL[9],
      and PM1_STATUS[11].
      http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=3691
      
      Implemented the initial deployment of new OSL mutex
      interfaces.  Since some host operating systems have
      separate mutex and semaphore objects, this feature was
      requested. The base code now uses mutexes (and the new
      mutex interfaces) wherever a binary semaphore was used
      previously. However, for the current release, the mutex
      interfaces are defined as macros to map them to the
      existing semaphore interfaces.
      
      Fixed several problems with the support for the control
      method SyncLevel parameter. The SyncLevel now works
      according to the ACPI specification and in concert with the
      Mutex SyncLevel parameter, since the current SyncLevel is
      a property of the executing thread. Mutual exclusion for
      control methods is now implemented with a mutex instead
      of a semaphore.
      
      Fixed three instances of the use of the C shift operator
      in the bitfield support code (exfldio.c) to avoid the use
      of a shift value larger than the target data width. The
      behavior of C compilers is undefined in this case and can
      cause unpredictable results, and therefore the case must
      be detected and avoided.  (Fiodor Suietov)
      
      Added an info message whenever an SSDT or OEM table
      is loaded dynamically via the Load() or LoadTable()
      ASL operators. This should improve debugging capability
      since it will show exactly what tables have been loaded
      (beyond the tables present in the RSDT/XSDT.)

      ACPIPHP: prevent duplicate slot numbers when no _SUN · 95b38b3f
      Kristen Accardi authored
      Dock bridges generally do not implement _SUN, yet show up as ejectable
      slots.  If you have more than one ejectable slot that does not implement
      SUN, with the current code you will get duplicate slot numbers.  So, if
      there is no _SUN, use the current count of the number of slots found
      instead.

      ACPIPHP: use ACPI dock driver · 4e8662bb
      Kristen Accardi authored
      Modify the acpiphp driver to use the ACPI dock driver for dock
      notifications.  Only load the acpiphp driver if we find we have pci dock
      devices.

      ACPI: dock driver · a5e1b940
      Kristen Accardi authored
      Create a driver which lives in the acpi subsystem to handle dock events.
      This driver is not an "ACPI" driver, because acpi drivers require that the
      object be present when the driver is loaded.
