[PATCH] acpi hotplug: decouple slot power state changes from physical hotplug
Current acpiphp code does not distinguish between the physical presence and power state of a device/slot. That is, if a device has to be disabled, it also tries to physically ejects the device. This patch decouples power state from physical presence. You can now echo to the corresponding sysfs power control file to repeatedly enable and disable a device without having to physically re-insert it.
