Hmm, I think you're talking about BI/BD.  Most of ACPI code must be
shared between IA32/IA64 (even bus interface code). Difference between
them is very limited, we can put them in acpi_machdep.c.  I like this
model.  NetBSD's pci code take this one (dev/pci/pci.c has MI code
like pcimattach(), arch/*/pci/pci_machdep.c have a set of MD
sub-routines for the specific machine architecture such as
pci_conf_read().).  I'm not sure this is correct or not, but it seems
reasonable for me.

Yes, I think it's in acpi_machdep.c :-)
if not, which one?

Thanks
