oops! my bad. I used checkpatch and did not verify if Igor/Michael was

generic_event_device.c depends on CONFIG_ACPI_HW_REDUCED. The GED does use
memory hotplug apis - for example acpi_ged_device_plug_cb() uses
acpi_memory_plug_cb() etc.
Hence, as it stands today, CONFIG_ACPI_HW_REDUCED will need to select ACPI
memory hotplug. Unless we remove the GED device's dependence on
ACPI_HW_REDUCED that is. I cannot comment whether that would be wise or if
we should reorg the code in some other way.
