Hi,

The following series of patches attempts to fix the problems with the handling
of power resources during initialization.

[1/3] allows power resource devices to be initialized by acpi_power driver as
      soon as they are found.

[2/3] creates power resource device objects as soon as they appear in the _PRn
      output for any devices.

[3/3] uses acpi_power_transition() to set up the initial reference counting of
      power resources as appropriate.

I have only tested them on machines without ACPI power resource objects, so all
this is kind of theoretical at the moment, but I think the patches are simple
enough.

Please test if you can and let me know what's wrong. :-)

Thanks,
Rafael
