Two separate problems.

(1) acpi used a file called ksyms.c which conflicted with the kernel's
export file of the same name. The symbol version code uses a flat
namespace for its files so drivers/acpi/ksyms.c has to be renamed
to acpi_ksyms.c.

(2) Even with the rename, symbol generation for acpi fails because the
genksyms pass does not honour EXTRA_CFLAGS. The correct fix is to
add EXTRA_CFLAGS to the genksyms pass in Rules.make. However that
hits every single compile and has with unknown side effects. I do
not have time to test a kernel wide change and at this late stage
in the release cycle I am not going to risk it, especially since
only acpi has a problem. So this patch includes a bandaid to fix
just acpi. After 2.4.0 is released I will look at doing and
verifying the correct fix.

Most of the patch is caused by the rename from ksyms.c to acpi_ksyms.c,
91 deletes and 91 inserts.
