ACPI Control Method Batteries have a _BIF and/or _BIX object which
provide static properties of the battery. FreeBSD acpi_cmbat module
supported _BIF object only, which was deprecated as of ACPI 4.0.
_BIX is an extended version of _BIF defined in ACPI 4.0 or later.
As of writing, _BIX has two revisions. One is in ACPI 4.0 (rev.0) and
another is in ACPI 6.0 (rev.1). It seems that hardware vendors still
stick to _BIF only or _BIX rev.0 + _BIF for the maximum compatibility.
Microsoft requires _BIX rev.0 for Windows machines, so there are some
laptop machines with _BIX rev.0 only. In this case, FreeBSD does not
recognize the battery information.
After this change, the acpi_cmbat module gets battery information from
_BIX or _BIF object and internally uses _BIX rev.1 data structure as
the primary information store in the kernel. ACPIIO_BATT_GET_BI[FX]
returns an acpi_bi[fx] structure built by using information obtained
from a _BIF or a _BIX object found on the system. The revision number
field can be used to check which field is available. The acpiconf(8)
utility will show additional information if _BIX is available.
Although ABIs of ACPIIO_BATT_* were changed, the existing APIs for
userland utilities are not changed and the backward-compatible ABIs
are provided. This means that older versions of acpiconf(8) can also
work with the new kernel. The (union acpi_battery_ioctl_arg) was
padded to 256 byte long to avoid another ABI change in the future.
A _BIX object with its revision number >1 will be treated as
compatible with the rev.1 _BIX format.

Follow-up to incomplete pedantic change in r353691 by actually fixing the
default implementation to match the interface type. Mea culpa.
X-MFC-With: r353691, r339754
After r339754, the additional interface parameter was accidentally left out
of the default acpi_generic_id_probe implementation. Apparently this does
not cause any real problems, so this fix is mostly stylistic.
No functional change intended.

knowledges from the file. All PCI devices enumerated in ACPI tree must use
correct one from acpi_pci.c any way. Reduce duplicate codes as we did for
pci.c in r213905. Do not return ESRCH from PCIB_POWER_FOR_SLEEP method.
When the method is not found, just return zero without modifying the given
default value as it is completely optional. As a side effect, the return
state must not be NULL. Note there is actually no functional change by
removing ESRCH because acpi_pcib_power_for_sleep() always returns zero.
Adjust debugging messages and add new ones under bootverbose to help
debugging device power state related issues.

(i.e., smart battery) and fix various bugs found during the cleanup.
API changes:
* kernel access:
Access to individual batteries is now via devclass_find("battery").
Introduce new methods ACPI_BATT_GET_STATUS (for _BST-formatted data) and
ACPI_BATT_GET_INFO (for _BIF-formatted data). The helper function
acpi_battery_get_battinfo() now takes a device_t instead of a unit #
argument. If dev is NULL, this signifies all batteries.
* ioctl access:
The ACPIIO_BATT_GET_TYPE and ACPIIO_BATT_GET_BATTDESC ioctls have been
removed. Since there is now no need for a mapping between "virtual" unit
and physical unit, usermode programs can just specify the unit directly and
skip the old translation steps. In fact, acpiconf(8) was actually already
doing this and virtual unit was the same as physical unit in all cases
since there was previously only one battery type (acpi_cmbat). Additionally,
we now map the ACPIIO_BATT_GET_BIF and ACPIIO_BATT_GET_BST ioctls for all
batteries, if they provide the associated methods.
* apm compatibility device/ioctls: no change
* sysctl: no change
Since most third-party applications use the apm(4) compat interface, there
should be very few affected applications (if any).

to see what features they may support before calling identify/probe/attach.
This is necessary because the ACPI 3.0 spec requires driver support be
advertised before running any methods. For now, the flags are as specified
in for the _PDC and _OSC methods but we can support private flags as needed.
Add an implementation of this for acpi_cpu. It checks all its children
(notably cpufreq drivers) and calls the _PDC method to report the results.
