ACPI / PM: Fix resource_lock dead lock in acpi_power_on_device
commit 40bf66ec9791f1452b90b82aadc3b6e6aee201f5 upstream.
Commit 0090def("ACPI: Add interface to register/unregister device
to/from power resources") used resource_lock to protect the devices list
that relies on power resource. It caused a mutex dead lock, as below
acpi_power_on ---> lock resource_lock
__acpi_power_on
acpi_power_on_device
acpi_power_get_inferred_state
acpi_power_get_list_state ---> lock resource_lock
This patch adds a new mutex "devices_lock" to protect the devices list
and calls acpi_power_on_device in acpi_power_on, instead of
__acpi_power_on, after the resource_lock is released.
[rjw: Changed data type of a boolean variable to bool.]
