Well, unfortunately, this breaks builds for allnoconfig, because <acpi/acpi.h>
is included directly from some header files (not under a CONFIG_ACPI ifdef) and
duplicates the acpi_handle typedef.

So, we'll need to go through the headers, see which ones do that and
replace <acpi/acpi.h> with <linux/acpi.h> (along with adding the stub
definitions for !CONFIG_ACPI).

I'm deferring the patchset for after 3.13-rc1 for this reason.

Thanks!
