[PATCH] ACPI CMOS region support - submission?

Okay how do I get this bad boy into -CURRENT?  Do I need a sponsor to do the commit?  Get my own FreeBSD developer status?

I made a few minor changes since the last incarnation:

 - Defined the CMOS address/data register addresses as macros
 - Defined the (apparent) I/O delay as a macro

I also verified the ACPI CMOS region code only accesses up to register 63 (0x3F - in previous emails I mistakenly said 0x7F).

If/when this gets in, I'd like to add sysctl controls to e.g. allow ACPI access to the date/time registers (I currently return failure when attempting to write them via ACPI).  I don't see anything in the spec (after re-reading it) that disallows ACPI from touching those.

Thanks,
Anthony Jenkins
