Multiple drivers handling hotplug-capable ACPI device nodes install
notify handlers covering the same types of events in a very similar
way. Moreover, those handlers are installed in separate namespace
walks, although that really should be done during namespace scans
carried out by acpi_bus_scan(). This leads to substantial code
duplication, unnecessary overhead and behavior that is hard to
follow.
For this reason, introduce common code in drivers/acpi/scan.c for
handling hotplug-related notification and carrying out device
insertion and eject operations in a generic fashion, such that it
may be used by all of the relevant drivers in the future. To cover
the existing differences between those drivers introduce struct
acpi_hotplug_profile for representing collections of hotplug
settings associated with different ACPI scan handlers that can be
used by the drivers to make the common code reflect their current
behavior.
