PCI: Export ACPI _DSM provided firmware instance number and string name to sysfs
This patch exports ACPI _DSM (Device Specific Method) provided firmware
instance number and string name of PCI devices as defined by 'PCI
Firmware Specification Revision 3.1' section 4.6.7.( DSM for Naming a
PCI or PCI Express Device Under Operating Systems) to sysfs.
New files created are:
/sys/bus/pci/devices/.../label which contains the firmware name for
the device in question, and
/sys/bus/pci/devices/.../acpi_index which contains the firmware device type
instance for the given device.
cat /sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:01.0/0000:01:00.0/acpi_index

cat /sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:01.0/0000:01:00.1/label
Embedded Broadcom 5709C NIC 2
The ACPI _DSM provided firmware 'instance number' and 'string name' will
be given priority if the firmware also provides 'SMBIOS type 41 device
type instance and string'.
