Subject: [PATCH v3 8/9] ACPI: arm64: use an arch-specific ACPI _OSI method and ACPI blacklist

From: Al Stone <al.stone@...aro.org>

Now that all of the _OSI functionality has been separated out, we can
provide arch-specific functionality for it.  This also allows us to do
the same for the acpi_blacklisted() function.  We also make sure the
defaults for the arm64 kernel are set so that the arch-specific _OSI
method and blacklist are always used for ACPI.

For arm64, any use of _OSI will issue a warning that it is deprecated.
All use of _OSI will return false -- i.e., it will return no useful
information to any firmware using it.  The ability to temporarily turn
on _OSI, or turn off _OSI, or affect it in other ways from the command
line is no longer available for arm64, either.  The blacklist for ACPI
on arm64 is empty.  This will, of course, require ACPI to be enabled
for arm64.
