Subject: [PATCH v1 0/6] ACPI: glue / driver core: Eliminate acpi_platform_notify() and split device_platform_notify()

Hi Greg et al,

This series doesn't change functionality (at least not intentionally), but
it get rids of a few unneeded checks, parameter passing etc.

Patches [1-2/6] simplify the ACPI "glue" code.

Patch [3/6] renames a couple of ACPI functions to avoid name collisions going
forward.

Patch [4/6] gets rid of acpi_platform_notify().

Patch [5/6] rearranges the software nodes code along the lines of what happens
to the ACPI "glue" code in patch [4/6].

Patch [6/6] deals with device_platform_notify().

Please review and let me know if there are any concerns regarding this.

Thanks!
