*	SFI: add sysfs interface for SFI tables.	Feng Tang	2010-05-27	1	-0/+41
\| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \|	Analogous to ACPI's /sys/firmware/acpi/tables/... create /sys/firmware/sfi/tables/ The tables are primariy for the kernel, but sometimes it is useful for user-space to be able to read them.

*	SFI: add capability to parse ACPI tables	Feng Tang	2009-08-28	1	-0/+175
	Extend SFI to access standard ACPI tables. (eg. the PCI MCFG) using sfi_acpi_table_parse(). Note that this is _not_ a hybrid ACPI + SFI mode. The platform boots in either ACPI mode or SFI mode. SFI runs only with acpi_disabled=1, which can be set at build-time via CONFIG_ACPI=n, or at boot time by the failure to find ACPI platform support. So this extension simply allows SFI-platforms to re-use existing standard table formats that happen to be defined to live in ACPI envelopes.
