update to "more info in /proc/acpi/wakeup"

I'm going to attach two more patches.  But mostly this is going to all be
informative ... I wouldn't expect anything to change with respect to handling
of those i8042 input devices, but you'll see more info about how ACPI views
things.

The patches "getting rid of" the wakeup file will mostly affect PCI devices on
the motherboard, making it so you don't need to manually enable them in
/proc/acpi/wakeup.

The "more info" patches update /proc/acpi/wakeup to show the device associated
with each wakeup-capable ACPI device ... modulo some glitches in the device
tree support for ACPI.  (This being the second of those two patches.)

The other two patches (a) hook up PNP devices to their ACPI siblings, which
will make /proc/acpi/wakeup show something for the i8042 devices, and (b) set
up cross-links in sysfs so that such hookups, and their PCI analogues, show up
too.  Should help diagnostics, and be more comprehensible than ACPI table
dumps.

You'll likely observe that the touchpad has three (!) sysfs nodes, rather than
the one you'd expect or the two found for most other PNP or PCI nodes.

... but I would really expect the root cause here to be that the i8042 stack
(mouse, touchpad, keyboard, etc) is doing something wrong.
