Introduce a new debugfs I/F (/sys/kernel/debug/acpi/custom_method) for ACPI,
which can be used to customize the ACPI control methods at runtime.
We can use this to debug the AML code level bugs instead of overriding the
whole DSDT table, without rebuilding/rebooting kernel any more.
Detailed description about how to use this debugfs I/F is stated in
Documentation/acpi/method-customizing.txt

Reformat acpi.debug_layer and acpi.debug_level documentation so it's
more readable, add some clues about how to figure out the mask bits that
enable a specific ACPI_DEBUG_PRINT statement, and include some useful
examples.
Move the list of masks to Documentation/acpi/debug.txt (these are
copies of the authoritative values in acoutput.h and acpi_drivers.h).

This essentially reverts commit 71fc47a9adf8ee89e5c96a47222915c5485ac437
("ACPI: basic initramfs DSDT override support"), because the code simply
isn't ready.
It did ugly things to the init sequence to populate the rootfs image
early, but that just ended up showing other problems with the whole
approach. The fact is, the VFS layer simply isn't initialized this
early, and the relevant ACPI code should either run much later, or this
shouldn't be done at all.
For 2.6.25, we'll just pick the latter option. We can revisit this
concept later if necessary.

The basics of DSDT from initramfs. In case this option is selected,
populate_rootfs() is called a bit earlier to have the initramfs content
available during ACPI initialization.
This is a very similar path to the one available at
http://gaugusch.at/kernel.shtml but with some update in the
documentation, default set to No and the change of populate_rootfs() the
"Jeff Mahony way" (which avoids reading the initramfs twice).
