From: Zhang Rui <rui.zhang@intel.com>

Add a kconfig option CONFIG_ACPI_PROCFS to make procfs interface a configurable attribute of ACPI.
No procfs interface is actually deprecated, and no sysfs interface is added in this patch.
CONGI_ACPI_PROCFS is used to mark procfs interface as deprecated once the same function is duplicated in sysfs.

If it's going to be removed, it should be listed as such in
Documentation/feature-removal-schedule.txt .
