This path adds validation of the MMCONFIG table against the ACPI reserved
motherboard resources. If the MMCONFIG table is found to be reserved in
ACPI, we don't bother checking the E820 table. The PCI Express firmware
spec apparently tells BIOS developers that reservation in ACPI is required
and E820 reservation is optional, so checking against ACPI first makes
sense. Many BIOSes don't reserve the MMCONFIG region in E820 even though
it is perfectly functional, the existing check needlessly disables MMCONFIG
in these cases.
In order to do this, MMCONFIG setup has been split into two phases. If PCI
configuration type 1 is not available then MMCONFIG is enabled early as
before. Otherwise, it is enabled later after the ACPI interpreter is
enabled, since we need to be able to execute control methods in order to
check the ACPI reserved resources. Presently this is just triggered off
the end of ACPI interpreter initialization.
There are a few other behavioral changes here:
- Validate all MMCONFIG configurations provided, not just the first one.
- Validate the entire required length of each configuration according to
the provided ending bus number is reserved, not just the minimum required
allocation.
- Validate that the area is reserved even if we read it from the chipset
directly and not from the MCFG table. This catches the case where the
BIOS didn't set the location properly in the chipset and has mapped it
over other things it shouldn't have.
This also cleans up the MMCONFIG initialization functions so that they
simply do nothing if MMCONFIG is not compiled in.

Patch to fix huge number of wakeups reported due to recent changes in
processor_idle.c. The problem was that the entry_method determination was
broken due to one of the recent commits (bc71bec91f) causing
C1 entry to not to go to halt.

Fixed a problem with the CreateField, CreateXXXField (Bit, Byte,
Word, Dword, Qword), Field, BankField, and IndexField operators
when invoked from inside an executing control method. In this case,
these operators created namespace nodes that were incorrectly
left marked as permanent nodes instead of temporary nodes. This
could cause a problem if there is race condition between an
exiting control method and a running namespace walk. (Reported
by Linn Crosetto). Fixed a problem where the CreateField and
CreateXXXField operators would incorrectly allow duplicate names
(the name of the field) with no exception generated.

Implemented several changes for Notify handling: Added support
for new Notify values (ACPI 2.0+) and improved the Notify debug
output. Notify on PowerResource objects is no longer allowed,

Fixed problem where NULL package elements were not returned to
the AcpiEvaluateObject interface correctly. Instead of returning a
NULL ACPI_OBJECT package element, the element was simply ignored,
potentially causing a buffer overflow and/or confusing the caller
who expected a fixed number of elements.

Fixed a problem where an extraneous debug message was produced for
package objects (when debugging enabled). The message "Package
List length larger than NumElements count" is now produced in
the correct case, and is also an error message rather than a
debug message. Added a debug message for the opposite case, where
NumElements is larger than the Package List, and the package has
been padded out with NULL elements.
