For "fixed" PCI devices, such as chips directly soldered
on the main board (ethernet, Wi-Fi, serial ports, etc.),
it is possible to find an ACPI enumeration.
This allows to add useful properties to these devices.
Just for an example: the property "gpio-line-names" can be
added to the pins of a GPIO expander on the PCI bus.
In order to find the ACPI name of a PCI device, it's necessary
to disassemble the BIOS ACPI tables (in particular the DSDT)
and also to analyze the PCI bus topology of the board.
This patch, with a practical example, show how to do this.

While this is stated as obsoleted, the sysfs interface described
there is still valid, and belongs to the admin-guide.

Mostly due to x86 and acpi conversion, several documentation
links are still pointing to the old file. Fix them.

The conversion of acpi/enumeration.txt to RST included one markup error,
leading to many warnings like:
.../firmware-guide/acpi/enumeration.rst:430: WARNING: Unexpected indentation.
Add the missing colon and create some peace.
