With /sys/kernel/debug/acpi/custom_method root can write
to arbitrary memory and increase his priveleges, even if
these are restricted.-> Make this an own debug .config option and warn about the
security issue in the config description.-> Still keep acpi/debugfs.c which now only creates an empty
/sys/kernel/debug/acpi directory. There might be other
users of it later.Signed-off-by: Thomas Renninger
