_PSS, and _TSS. Drivers can now assume that the packages are
correctly sorted. Adds one new file, nsrepair2.c.

Completed a major update for the acpi_get_object_info external interface.
Changes include:
- Support for variable, unlimited length HID, UID, and CID strings
- Support Processor objects the same as Devices (HID,UID,CID,ADR,STA, etc.)
- Call the _SxW power methods on behalf of a device object
- Determine if a device is a PCI root bridge
- Change the ACPI_BUFFER parameter to ACPI_DEVICE_INFO.
These changes will require an update to all callers of this interface.
See the ACPICA Programmer Reference for details.
Also, update all invocations of acpi_get_object_info interface

Add acpi/acpica/*.c to the acpi.* modparam namespace
so that any modparams we stick into ACPICA do not
expose ACPICA filenames to users.
There are currently only two modparams in ACPICA,
just recently added for
http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=13041
With this change, they become
acpi.gts=1
acpi.bfs=1
rather than
hwsleep.gts=1
hwsleep.bfs=1

Added a reader/writer locking mechanism to allow multiple
concurrent namespace walks (readers), but a dynamic table unload
will have exclusive access to the namespace. This fixes a problem
where a table unload could delete the portion of the namespace that
is currently being examined by a walk. Adds a new file, utlock.c
that implements the reader/writer lock mechanism. ACPICA BZ 749.
