    ARM64: ACPI: Update documentation for latest specification version · 83ce0efc

    The ACPI 6.1 specification was recently released at the end of January
    2016, but the arm64 kernel documentation for the use of ACPI was written
    for the 5.1 version of the spec.  There were significant additions to the
    spec that had not yet been mentioned -- for example, the 6.0 mechanisms
    added to make it easier to define processors and low power idle states,
    as well as the 6.1 addition allowing regular interrupts (not just from
    GPIO) be used to signal ACPI general purpose events.
    
    This patch reflects going back through and examining the specs in detail
    and updating content appropriately.  Whilst there, a few odds and ends of
    typos were caught as well.  This brings the documentation up to date with
    ACPI 6.1 for arm64.
