[PATCH v3 2/8] platform/x86: dell-smbios: Introduce a WMI-ACPI interface

2017-09-27 Thread Mario Limonciello
The driver currently uses an SMI interface which grants direct access to physical memory to the firmware SMM methods via a pointer. Now add a WMI-ACPI interface that is detected by WMI probe and preferred over the SMI interface. Changing this to operate over WMI-ACPI will use an ACPI
