Subject: [MINI PATCH] sysctl values for ACPI and APM

Hi Linus,

Since ACPI is now in the kernel, I figure that its top level
sysctl tag should be in sysctl.h. Also, this patch claims an
tag for APM as I want to add some sysctl's for APM soon.

By the way, is there a "correct" way to claim sysctl tags?

Cheers,
Stephen
