Hi Yinghai,

This feature has been very useful.  Thanks for working on this change.
I have a few comments below.

Why do you obtain hsb for \_SB when acpi_name is supposed to be a full
path name?  Can you simply specify a NULL like this?
  status = acpi_get_handle(NULL, acpi_name, &hlsb);

Is the above check necessary?  acpi_ev_queue_notify_request() sets up to
call the global handler, acpi_gbl_global_notify[0], even if the object
does not have a local handler registered.
