+ * Generic Event Device allows platforms to handle interrupts in ACPI

+ * from GPIO events. All interrupts are listed in _CRS and the handler
+ * is written in _EVT method. Here is an example.
+ *
+ * Device (GED0)
+ * {
+ *
+ *     Name (_HID, "ACPI0013")
+ *     Name (_UID, 0)
+ *     Method (_CRS, 0x0, Serialized)
+ *     {
+ *		Name (RBUF, ResourceTemplate ()
+ *		{
+ *		Interrupt(ResourceConsumer, Edge, ActiveHigh, Shared, , , )
+ *		{123}
+ *		}
+ *     })
+ *
+ *     Method (_EVT, 1) {
+ *             if (Lequal(123, Arg0))
+ *             {
