ACPICA: Save current masks of enabled GPEs after enable register writes



There is a race condition between acpi_hw_disable_all_gpes() or
acpi_enable_all_wakeup_gpes() and acpi_ev_asynch_enable_gpe() such
that if the latter wins the race, it may mistakenly enable a GPE
disabled by the former.  This may lead to premature system wakeups
during system suspend and potentially to more serious consequences.

The source of the problem is how acpi_hw_low_set_gpe() works when
passed ACPI_GPE_CONDITIONAL_ENABLE as the second argument.  In that
case, the GPE will be enabled if the corresponding bit is set in the
enable_for_run mask of the GPE enable register containing that bit.
However, acpi_hw_disable_all_gpes() and acpi_enable_all_wakeup_gpes()
don't modify the enable_for_run masks of GPE registers when writing
to them.  In consequence, if acpi_ev_asynch_enable_gpe(), which
eventually calls acpi_hw_low_set_gpe() with the second argument
equal to ACPI_GPE_CONDITIONAL_ENABLE, is executed in parallel with
one of these functions, it may reverse changes made by them.

To fix the problem, introduce a new enable_mask field in struct
acpi_gpe_register_info in which to store the current mask of
enabled GPEs and modify acpi_hw_low_set_gpe() to take this
mask into account instead of enable_for_run when its second
argument is equal to ACPI_GPE_CONDITIONAL_ENABLE.  Also modify
the low-level routines called by acpi_hw_disable_all_gpes(),
acpi_enable_all_wakeup_gpes() and acpi_enable_all_runtime_gpes()
to update the enable_mask masks of GPE registers after all
(successful) writes to those registers.
