[PATCH] ACPICA: Introduce acpi_load_table_with_index()

[Nikolaus Voss]

For unloading an ACPI table, it is necessary to provide the
index of the table. The method intended for dynamically
loading or hotplug addition of tables, acpi_load_table(),
does not provide this information, so a new function
acpi_load_table_with_index() with the same functionality,
but an optional pointer to the loaded table index is introduced.

The new function is used in the acpi_configfs driver to save the
index of the newly loaded table in order to unload it later.
