From: Rafael J. Wysocki <rafael.j.wysocki@xxxxxxxxx> Add a new module import namespace called ACPI_PROCESSOR_IDLE for functions exported from the non-modular part of the ACPI processor driver to the modular part of it. Export acpi_processor_claim_cst_control() and acpi_processor_evaluate_cst() in that namespace to hide them from unrelated modules. They are also used by the intel_idle driver, but it is non-modular, so it can call them regardless of the way the symbols are exported. Signed-off-by: Rafael J.
