These are ACPI patches, mostly due to a rather large ACPICA
update that brings the core up to date to 11/9 from 7/7.
The biggest part is the update to the table code to teach the
OS that it can simply map tables in place rather than copying them.
Nearly all of this series has been in -mm before.
I do regret that there are more variable re-names and whitespace
cleanups in this batch than I'd prefer -- seems there is never
a good time to do those...
