Subject: RE: [RFC PATCH 1/2] ACPICA: Add acpi_check_gpe_method() to check
 GPE method

Since what is returned by this interface is essentially a piece of information about the particular GPE, I think that it might be better to generalize this interface to a "GetInfo" type of interface that returns a few pieces of information about the GPE.
