ACPI / PM: Expose power states of ACPI devices to user space

Make it possible to retrieve the current power state of a device with
ACPI power management from user space via sysfs by adding two new
attributes, power_state and real_power_state, to the sysfs directory
associated with the struct acpi_device object representing the
device's ACPI node.

+Description:
+		The /sys/devices/.../power_state attribute is only present for
+		device objects representing ACPI device nodes that provide power
+		management methods.
+
+		If present, it contains a string representing the current ACPI
+		power state of the given device node.  Its possible values,
+		"D0", "D1", "D2", "D3hot", and "D3cold", reflect the power state
+		names defined by the ACPI specification (ACPI 4 and above).
+
+		If the device node uses shared ACPI power resources, this state
+		determines a list of power resources required not to be turned
+		off.  However, some power resources needed by the device node in
+		higher-power (lower-number) states may also be ON because of
+		some other devices using them at the moment.
+
+		This attribute is read-only.

+Description:
+		The /sys/devices/.../real_power_state attribute is only present
+		for device objects representing ACPI device nodes that provide
+		power management methods and use ACPI power resources for power
+		management.
+
+		If present, it contains a string representing the real ACPI
+		power state of the given device node as returned by the _PSC
+		control method or inferred from the configuration of power
+		resources.  Its possible values, "D0", "D1", "D2", "D3hot", and
+		"D3cold", reflect the power state names defined by the ACPI
+		specification (ACPI 4 and above).
+
+		In some situations the value of this attribute may be different
+		from the value of the /sys/devices/.../power_state attribute for
+		the same device object.  If that happens, some shared power
+		resources used by the device node are only ON because of some
+		other devices using them at the moment.
+
+		This attribute is read-only.
