Subject: [RFC][PATCH 1/3] ACPI / PM: Expose reference count values of ACPI power resources

From: Rafael J. Wysocki <rafael.j.wysocki@...el.com>

Since ACPI power resources are going to be used more extensively on
new hardware platforms, it becomes necessary for user space (powertop
in particular) to observe some properties of those resources for
diagnostics purposes.

For this reason, export the reference counts of ACPI power resources
to user space by adding a new reference_count attribute to the sysfs
directory representing each power resource.  The value read from
that attribute represents the number of devices using the power
resource at the given time.  If that value is 0, it meas that the
power resource is not used and therefore it has been turned off.
