Hi Yasuaki,

The patch works fine on my setup. However, it may be better to
implement this feature in acpi_device_setup_files(), so that we can
generally support it for any ACPI objects with _SUN. We might also be
able to put sun value into acpi_device_pnp since it is a static value.
This way, we don't have to call _SUN at every sysfs access, and it could
be useful for debugging as well.

Thanks,
-Toshi
