[RFC PATCH 1/8] ACPI: introduce .match() callback for ACPI scan handler

[Zhang Rui]

Currently, acpi scan handler uses strcmp() to match device ids
and scan handler ids.

When converting PNPACPI enumeration into a scan handler, which I will do
later in this patch set, the current code becomes not flexible enough
because PNP acpi scan handler requires wildcase and case insensitive support.

Thus a per scan handler .match() callback is introduced in this patch,
so that specified scan handler can have more flexible matching mechanism
by introduce its own .match() callback.
