delete "default y" from CONFIG_ACPI_PROCFS
(effectively making the default 'N')
List exactly what /proc files this option controls,
and clarify that it doesn't change non-deprecated files.

Split ACPI_DEBUG into function trace enabled and not enabled.
Function trace is most of the ACPI_DEBUG costs, but is
not much of use for kernel ACPI debugging.
Size of kernel image increased on test compile:
+ 48k (Full ACPI_DEBUG)
+ 35k (ACPI_DEBUG with function trace compiled out)
Performance without function trace is also much better.
Also remove ACPI_LV_DEBUG_OBJECT from default debug level as
a lot vendors let Store (value, debug) in their code and this
might confuse users when it pops up in syslog.

Use menuconfigs instead of menus, so the whole menu can be disabled at once
instead of going through all options.

Requires CONFIG_VIDEO_OUTPUT_CONTROL and CONFIG_ACPI_VIDEO.
After loading output.ko and video.ko, you would have
/sys/class/video_output and several device acpi_videoNum there.
For example, I got acpi_video0, acpi_video1,acpi_video2,and acpi_video3
under /sys/class/video_output on my T40.
I can query the status of output device0 by running " cat
/sys/class/video_output/acpi_video0
" The return value is defined in ACPI SPEC B.5.5 _DCS(Return the
Status of Output Device). Also you can turn off video1 and turn on
video0 by " echo 0 > acpi_video1; echo 0x80000000 > acpi_video0".
Please reference ACPI SPEC B.5.7 _DSS for the parameter definition.
Please note that it may or may NOT works purely depending on if
your vendor providing correct ACPI video extension support in bios.
the driver output.ko and video.ko just works like a interface to
invoke BIOS.

ibm-acpi is not an ACPICA driver, so move it to drivers/misc as per Len
Brown's request.

We removed the ACPI motherboard driver which handled
the ACPI=y, PNP=n case, so now we need to enforce that
PNP & PNPACPI are always enabled for ACPI kernels.
Most major distros ship this way this already.
