    ACPI: fix section mis-match build warning
    
    Dunno why this pops out in only in the allmodconfig build.
    Though the warning is accurate, all the callers of the flagged
    non __init function are __init, this is not a functional change.
    
    WARNING: vmlinux - Section mismatch: reference to .init.data:acpi_sci_flags from .text between 'acpi_sci_ioapic_setup' (at offset 0xc010f0a

    ACPI: increase ACPI_MAX_REFERENCE_COUNT for larger systems
    
    We have some new larger ia64 systems in HP that trip over the
    ACPI_MAX_REFERENCE_COUNT limit which triggers a large number of these
    debug messages:
    
    ACPI Warning (utdelete-0397): Large Reference Count (XXX) in object e0000a0ff6797ab0  [20060707]
    
    This was increased once in the past as described in this very brief thread:

    ACPI: EC: move verbose printk to debug build only
    
    The recent EC cleanup left a printk enabled on handler evaluation
    resulting in a bunch of messages on normal operation, like so:

    backlight: fix backlight_device_register compile failures
    
    Fix breakage from commit 519ab5f2be65b72cf12ae99c89752bbe79b44df6 which
    didn't update all references to backlight_device_register causing
    compile failures.
