There are a lot userspace approaches to detect the usage of the
platform (laptop, workstation, server, ...) and adjust kernel tunables
accordingly (io/process scheduler, power management, ...).
These approaches need constant maintaining and are ugly to implement
(detect PCMCIA controller -> laptop,
does not work on recent systems anymore, ...)
On ACPI systems there is an easy and reliable way (if implemented
in BIOS and most recent platforms have this value set).
-> export it to userspace.

Structs battery_file, acpi_dock_ops, file_operations,
thermal_cooling_device_ops, thermal_zone_device_ops, kernel_param_ops
are not changed in runtime. It is safe to make them const.
register_hotplug_dock_device() was altered to take const "ops" argument
to respect acpi_dock_ops' const notion.

- Move param aml_debug_output to other params into sysfs.c
- Split acpi_debugfs_init to prepare custom_method to be
an own .config option and driver.

The global event handler is called whenever a general purpose
or fixed ACPI event occurs.
Also update Linux OSL to collect events counter with
global event handler.

drivers/acpi/sysfs.c:154: warning: passing argument 1 of '__check_old_set_param' from incompatible pointer type
include/linux/moduleparam.h:165: note: expected 'int (*)(const char *, struct kernel_param *)' but argument is of type 'int (*)(const char *, const struct kernel_param *)'
Introduced by commit 1c8fce27e2 ("ACPI:
introduce drivers/acpi/sysfs.c") interacting with commit
9bbb9e5a33 ("param: use ops in struct
kernel_param, rather than get and set fns directly").
Use module_param_cb instead of the obsoleted module_param_call to fix a build warning.
