[PATCH 2.4.22-pre3] Export 'acpi_disabled' symbol to modules...

[Stelian Pop]

Hi,

'acpi_disabled' is not exported by the current 2.4-pre kernel, but
is used by at least the sonypi module.

I have submitted a similar patch for 2.5 some weeks ago (and it got
applied) but for some reason the 2.4 ACPI branch don't have it.

Andy, Marcelo, please apply.

(Alan, a similar change is needed for -ac, but the current patch will
not apply on top of the ac tree. Do you want me to send you a patch
correcting this or you'll do the change by hand ?)

Thanks,

Stelian.

No problem - I'll fix it by hand
