Add cross-links between ACPI device and "real" devices in sysfs,
exposing otherwise-hidden interrelationships between the various
device nodes for ACPI stuff.  As a representative example, one
hardware device is exposed as two logical devices (PNP and ACPI):

  .../pnp0/00:06/
  .../LNXSYSTM:00/device:00/PNP0A03:00/device:15/PNP0B00:00/

The PNP device gets a "firmware_node" link pointing to the ACPI device,
and is what a Linux device driver binds to.  The ACPI device has instead
a "physical_node" link pointing back to the PNP device.  Other firmware
frameworks, like OpenFirmware, could do the same thing to couple their
firmware tables to the rest of the system.

(Based on a patch from Zhang Rui.  This version is modified to not
depend on the patch makig ACPI initialize driver model wakeup flags.)
