ACPI: Update GPIO documentation to mention _DSD

Browse Source 
Make sure that the ACPI enumeration.txt provides latest information on how
to describe and retrieve GPIOs now that we can take advantage of _DSD
device properties.

~~~~~~~~~~~~
ACPI 5 introduced two new resources to describe GPIO connections: GpioIo
and GpioInt. These resources are used be used to pass GPIO numbers used by
the device to the driver. For example:
the device to the driver. ACPI 5.1 extended this with _DSD (Device
Specific Data) which made it possible to name the GPIOs among other things.
For example:
Device (DEV)

Method (_CRS, 0, NotSerialized)

These GPIO numbers are controller relative and path "\\_SB.PCI0.GPI0"
specifies the path to the controller. In order to use these GPIOs in Linux
we need to translate them to the corresponding Linux GPIO descriptors.
