ACPI: Drop the custom_method debugfs interface The ACPI custom_method debugfs interface is security-sensitive and concurrent access to it is broken [1]. Moreover, the recipe for preparing a customized version of a given control method has changed at one point due to ACPICA changes, which has not been reflected in its documentation, so whoever used it before has had to adapt and it had gone unnoticed for a long time. This interface was a bad idea to start with and its implementation is fragile at the design level. It's been always conceptually questionable, problematic from the security standpoint and implemented poorly. Patches fixing its most apparent functional issues (for example, [2]) don't actually address much of the above. Granted, at the time it was introduced, there was no alternative, but there is the AML debugger in the kernel now and there is the configfs interface allowing custom ACPI tables to be loaded. The former can be used for extensive AML debugging and the latter can be use for testing new AML. [3] Accordingly, drop custom_method along with its (outdated anyway) documentation.

platform/chrome: Add ChromeOS ACPI device driver The x86 Chromebooks have the ChromeOS ACPI device. This driver attaches to the ChromeOS ACPI device and exports the values reported by ACPI in a sysfs directory. This data isn't present in ACPI tables when read through ACPI tools, hence a driver is needed to do it. The driver gets data from firmware using the ACPI component of the kernel. The ACPI values are presented in string form (numbers as decimal values) or binary blobs, and can be accessed as the contents of the appropriate read only files in the standard ACPI device's sysfs directory tree. This data is consumed by the ChromeOS user space.
