Subject: ACPI / PM: Export power states of ACPI devices via sysfs

Make it possible to retrieve the current power state of a device with
ACPI power management from user space via sysfs by adding a new
attribute power_state to the sysfs directory associated with the
struct acpi_device object representing the device's ACPI node.

I've changed my mind here.  It looks like it's more convenient to put the
power_state attribute directly into the ACPI device node's directory in sysfs
rather than into its power subdirectory.

Thanks,
Rafael
