<title>ACPICA: Drop acpi_set_gpe</title>

The acpi_set_gpe() function is a little awkward, because it doesn't
really work as advertised in the "disable" case.  Namely, if a GPE
has been enabled with acpi_enable_gpe() and triggered a notification
to occur, and if acpi_set_gpe() is used to disable it before
acpi_ev_asynch_enable_gpe() runs, the GPE will be immediately enabled
by the latter as though the acpi_set_gpe() had no effect.

Thus, since it's been possible to make all of its callers use
alternative operations to disable or enable GPEs, acpi_set_gpe() can
be dropped.

After the previous patch that introduced acpi_gpe_wakeup() and
modified the ACPI suspend and wakeup code to use it, the third
argument of acpi_{enable|disable}_gpe() and the GPE wakeup
reference counter are not necessary any more.  Remove them and
modify all of the users of acpi_{enable|disable}_gpe()
accordingly.  Also drop GPE type constants that aren't used
any more.

<title>ACPICA: Introduce acpi_gpe_wakeup()</title>

ACPICA uses reference counters to avoid disabling GPEs too early in
case they have been enabled for many times.  This is done separately
for runtime and for wakeup, but the wakeup GPE reference counter is
not really necessary, because GPEs are only enabled to wake up the
system at the hardware level by acpi_enter_sleep_state().  Thus it
only is necessary to set the corresponding bits in the wakeup enable
masks of these GPEs' registers right before the system enters a sleep
state.  Moreover, the GPE wakeup enable bits can only be set when the
target sleep state of the system is known and they need to be cleared
immediately after wakeup regardless of how many wakeup devices are
associated with a given GPE.

On the basis of the above observations, introduce function
acpi_gpe_wakeup() to be used for setting or clearing the enable bit
corresponding to a given GPE in its enable register's enable_for_wake
mask.  Modify the ACPI suspend and wakeup code the use
acpi_gpe_wakeup() instead of acpi_{enable|disable}_gpe() to set
and clear GPE enable bits in their registers' enable_for_wake masks
during system transitions to a sleep state and back to the working
state, respectively.  [This will allow us to drop the third
argument of acpi_{enable|disable}_gpe() and simplify the GPE
handling code.]

<title>ACPI / ACPICA: Avoid writing full enable masks to GPE registers</title>

ACPICA uses acpi_hw_write_gpe_enable_reg() to re-enable a GPE after
an event signaled by it has been handled.  However, this function
writes the entire GPE enable mask to the GPE's enable register which
may not be correct.  Namely, if one of the other GPEs in the same
register was previously enabled by acpi_enable_gpe() and subsequently
disabled using acpi_set_gpe(), acpi_hw_write_gpe_enable_reg() will
re-enable it along with the target GPE.

To fix this issue rework acpi_hw_write_gpe_enable_reg() so that it
calls acpi_hw_low_set_gpe() with a special action value,
ACPI_GPE_COND_ENABLE, that will make it only enable the GPE if the
corresponding bit in its register's enable_for_run mask is set.

<title>ACPI / ACPICA: Fix low-level GPE manipulation code</title>

ACPICA uses acpi_ev_enable_gpe() for enabling GPEs at the low level,
which is incorrect, because this function only enables the GPE if the
corresponding bit in its enable register's enable_for_run mask is set.
This causes acpi_set_gpe() to work incorrectly if used for enabling
GPEs that were not previously enabled with acpi_enable_gpe().  As a
result, among other things, wakeup-only GPEs are never enabled by
acpi_enable_wakeup_device(), so the devices that use them are unable
to wake up the system.

To fix this issue remove acpi_ev_enable_gpe() and its counterpart
acpi_ev_disable_gpe() and replace acpi_hw_low_disable_gpe() with
acpi_hw_low_set_gpe() that will be used instead to manipulate GPE
enable bits at the low level.  Make the users of acpi_ev_enable_gpe()
and acpi_ev_disable_gpe() call acpi_hw_low_set_gpe() instead and
make sure that GPE enable masks are only updated by acpi_enable_gpe()
and acpi_disable_gpe() when GPE reference counters change from 0
to 1 and from 1 to 0, respectively.

We have ported Rafael's major GPE changes
(ACPI: Use GPE reference counting to support shared GPEs) into ACPICA code base.
But the port and Rafael's original patch have some differences, so we made
below patch to make linux GPE code consistent with ACPICA code base.

Most changes are about comments and coding styles.
Other noticeable changes are based on:

Rafael: Reduce code duplication related to GPE lookup
https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/86237/

Rafael: Always use the same lock for GPE locking
https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/90471/

A new field gpe_count in struct acpi_gpe_block_info to record the number
of individual GPEs in block.

Rename acpi_ev_save_method_info to acpi_ev_match_gpe_method.

ACPI GPEs may map to multiple devices.  The current GPE interface
only provides a mechanism for enabling and disabling GPEs, making
it difficult to change the state of GPEs at runtime without extensive
cooperation between devices.

Add an API to allow devices to indicate whether or not they want
their device's GPE to be enabled for both runtime and wakeup events.

Remove the old GPE type handling entirely, which gets rid of various
quirks, like the implicit disabling with GPE type setting. This
requires a small amount of rework in order to ensure that non-wake
GPEs are enabled by default to preserve existing behaviour.
