[PATCH 1/2] make acpi_path_name() global (v3)

[Randy.Dunlap]

From: Randy Dunlap <randy_d_dunlap-VuQAYsv1563Yd54FQh9/CA@public.gmane.org>

Make acpi_path_name() usable by everyone.
I need this for adding SATA suspend/resume ACPI support.

Nope.  You either need to add an "ACPI_FUNCTION_TRACE" call at the top
of your function, or just do "return status;".  Otherwise you'll screw
up the ACPI debug code.
