[PATCH] Add Intel GMA500(Poulsbo) Stub Driver

Hi, Lee,

there are several regressions caused by this patch,
http://marc.info/?l=linux-acpi&m=128872402020412&w=2
http://marc.info/?l=linux-acpi&m=128858111022621&w=2

Yes, We can fix it by "select INPUT if ACPI"/"select
VIDEO_OUTPUT_CONTROL if ACPI".
But IMO,  STUB_POULSBO should not select ACPI_VIDEO at all,
what do you think?

thanks,
rui
