<title>ACPICA: Utilities: Introduce acpi_log_error() to improve portability</title>

<content type='text'>
Invocations like fprintf(stderr) and perror() are not portable, this patch
introduces acpi_log_error() as a replacement, it is implemented using new
portable API - acpi_ut_file_vprintf().

Note that though acpi_os_initialize() need to be invoked prior than using
this new API, since no users are introduced in this patch, such invocations
are not added for applications that link utprint.c in this patch. Futher
patches that introduce users of acpi_log_error() should take care of this.

This patch is only useful for ACPICA applications, most of which are not
shipped in the Linux kernel.

Note that follow-up commits will update acpidump to use this new API to
improve portability. Lv Zheng.

This patch contains some environment updates that will be used by acpidump
because:
 1. The follow-up commits will release osunixxf.c to the Linux kernel for
    acpidump to link, and
 2. Such environment settings will be used to avoid linkage issues.

This global is acting as an OSL global variable, implemented in the
oswinxf.c and osunixxf.c.

This patch cleans up the definition of this variable so that new utilities
do not need to define it in order to link.

Linux kernel behaviour is not affected as the changes only applies to the
ACPICA userspace utilities which are not shipped in the kernel currently.

init code, but was not an actual working program. Added ACPI tables
to make it actually function.

<title>ACPICA: Cleanup indentation to reduce differences between Linux and ACPICA.</title>

This is a cosmetic patch only. Comparison of the resulting binary showed
only line number differences.

This patch does not affect the generation of the Linux binary.
This patch decreases 210 lines of 20121018 divergence.diff.

The ACPICA source codes uses a totally different indentation style from the
Linux to be compatible with other users (operating systems or BIOS).

Indentation differences are critical to the release automation. There are
two causes related to the "indentation" that are affecting the release
automation:
1. The ACPICA -&gt; Linux release process is:
     ACPICA source -- acpisrc - hierarchy - indent -&gt;
     linuxized ACPICA source -- diff -&gt;
     linuxized ACPICA patch (x) -- human intervention -&gt;
     linuxized ACPICA patch (o)
     Where
       'x' means "cannot be directly applied to the Linux"
       'o' means "can be directly applied to the Linux"
   Different "indent" version or "indent" options used in the "indent"
   step will lead to different divergences.
   The version of "indent" used for the current release process is:
     GNU indent 2.2.11
   The options of "indent" used for the current release process is:
     -npro -kr -i8 -ts8 -sob -l80 -ss -ncs
2. Manual indentation prettifying work in the Linux side will also harm the
   automatically generated linuxized ACPICA patches, making them impossible
   to apply directly.

This patch fixes source code differences caused by the two causes so that
the "human intervention" can be reduced in the future.
