ACPI: fix "acpi=ht" boot option

We broke "acpi=ht" in 2.6.32 by disabling MADT parsing
for acpi=disabled. e5b8fc6ac158f65598f58dba2c0d52ba3b412f52
This also broke systems which invoked acpi=ht via DMI blacklist.

acpi=ht is a really ugly hack,
but restore it for those that still use it.

ACPI: fix High cpu temperature with 2.6.32

Since the rewrite of the CPU idle governor in 2.6.32, two laptops have
surfaced where the BIOS advertises a C2 power state, but for some reason
this state is not functioning (as verified in both cases by powertop
before the patch in .32).

The old governor had the accidental behavior that if a non-working state
was chosen too many times, it would end up falling back to C1. The new
governor works differently and this accidental behavior is no longer
there; the result is a high temperature on these two machines.

This patch adds these 2 machines to the DMI table for C state anomalies;
by just not using C2 both these machines are better off (the TSC can be
used instead of the pm timer, giving a performance boost for example).

ACPI: dock: properly initialize local struct dock_station in dock_add()

Commit fe06fba2 (ACPI: dock: add struct dock_station * directly
to platform device data) changed dock_add() to use the
platform_device_register_data() API.

We passed that interface a stack variable, which is kmemdup'ed
and assigned to the device's platform_data pointer.

Unfortunately, whatever random garbage is in the stack variable
gets coped during the kmemdup, and that leads to broken behavior.

Explicitly zero out the structure before passing it to the API.

This fixes the T41 docking button issue:

We realized when we broke acpi=ht
http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=14886
that acpi=ht is not needed on this box
and folks have been using acpi=force on it anyway.

ACPI: acpi_bus_{scan,bus,add}: return -ENODEV if no device was found

Callers (acpi_memhotplug.c, dock.c and others) check for the return
value of acpi_bus_add() and assume a valid device was returned in
case zero was returned.

Thus return -ENODEV if no device was found in acpi_bus_scan and
propagate this through acpi_bus_add and acpi_bus_start.

Also remove a confusing comment in acpiphp_glue.c, acpi_bus_scan
will and cannot invoke if acpi_bus_add returns no valid device.

ACPI: Add NULL pointer check in acpi_bus_start

If acpi_bus_add does not return a device and it's passed
to acpi_bus_start, bad things will happen:

BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at 0000000000000008
IP: [<ffffffff8128402d>] acpi_bus_start+0x14/0x24
...
[<ffffffffa008977a>] acpiphp_bus_add+0xba/0x130 [acpiphp]

[<ffffffffa0089df7>] handle_hotplug_event_func+0x87/0x190 [acpiphp]

Next patch would make this NULL pointer check obsolete, but
better having one more than one missing...
