[PATCH v2 5/5] ACPI: arm64: use "Linux" as ACPI_OS_NAME for _OS on arm64

From: Al Stone <al.stone at linaro.org>

ACPI_OS_NAME is globally defined as "Microsoft Windows NT" for now.
That doesn't make much sense in the ARM context, so set it to "Linux"
when CONFIG_ARM64.

If it is necessary to change the return value from \_OS_ (that is, return
some value other than the default in ACPI_OS_NAME), use the kernel parameter
"acpi_os_name=<string>".

Many thanks to Rafael Wysocki for this greatly simplified form of the patch.
