ec/compal/ene932/acpi: Let mainboard define the ACPI lid object
The GP15 ACPI object was used to get the state of the lid. However GP15 is specific to certain Intel chipsets, and will not always be in the ACPI namespace. Instead of hardcoding this object, let the mainboard define it. Also, document the ACPI interface for the EC.

+Accessing the EC space
+======================
+
+The ACPI implementation uses the standard I/O ports 0x62 and 0x66 to access the
+EC functionality. Accesses to these ports must be directed to the LPC bus to
+which the EC is connected.
+
+
+Interfacing with the ASL files
+==============================
+
+The mainboard code must define several variables for the ASL files.
+
+* EC_SCI
+ Defines the General Purpose Event (GPE) corresponding to the EC's SCI line.
+* EC_ACPI_LID_SWITCH_OBJECT
+ Defines the APCI object which reads the state of the lid, with 0 = open, and
+ 1 = closed. This is usually the bit which reads the GPIO input corresponding
+ to the lid switch.
+* PNOT()
+ The mainboard must define a PNOT method to handle power state notifications
+ and Notify CPU device objects to re-evaluate their _PPC and _CST tables.
