      The low-level field insertion/extraction code (exfldio)
      has been completely rewritten to eliminate unnecessary
      complexity, bugs, and boundary conditions.
      
      Fixed a problem in the ToInteger, ToBuffer, ToHexString,
      and ToDecimalString operators where the input operand could
      be inadvertently deleted if no conversion was necessary
      (e.g., if the input to ToInteger was an Integer object.)
      
      Fixed a problem with the ToDecimalString and ToHexString
      where an incorrect exception code was returned if the
      resulting string would be > 200 chars.  AE_STRING_LIMIT is
      now returned.
      
      Fixed a problem with the Concatenate operator where AE_OK
      was always returned, even if the operation failed.
      
      Fixed a problem in oswinxf (used by AcpiExec and iASL)
      to allow > 128 semaphores to be allocated.

      Fixed a problem in acpi_ex_convert_to_integer
      where new integers were not truncated to 32 bits for
      32-bit ACPI tables. This routine converts buffers and
      strings to integers.
      
      Implemented support to store a value to an Index() on a
      String object.  This is an ACPI 2.0 feature that had not
      yet been implemented.
      
      Implemented new behavior for storing objects to individual
      package elements (via the Index() operator). The
      previous behavior was to invoke the implicit conversion
      rules if an object was already present at the index.
      The new behavior is to simply delete any existing object
      and directly store the new object. Although the ACPI
      specification seems unclear on this subject, other ACPI
      implementations behave in this manner.  (This is the root
      of the AE_BAD_HEX_CONSTANT issue.)
      
      Modified the RSDP memory scan mechanism to support the
      extended checksum for ACPI 2.0 (and above) RSDPs. Note
      that the search continues until a valid RSDP signature is
      found with a valid checksum.

      [ACPI] ACPICA 20041105 from Bob Moore · adbd7582
      Len Brown authored
      Implemented support for FADT revision 2.  This was an
      interim table (between ACPI 1.0 and ACPI 2.0) that adds
      support for the FADT reset register.
      
      Implemented optional support to allow uninitialized LocalX
      and ArgX variables in a control method.  The variables
      are initialized to an Integer object with a value
      of zero.  This support is enabled by setting the
      acpi_gbl_enable_interpreter_slack flag to TRUE,
      which is default unless booted with "acpi=strict".
      
      Implemented support for Integer objects for the SizeOf
      operator.  Either 4 or 8 is returned, depending on the
      current integer size (32-bit or 64-bit, depending on the
      parent table revision).
      
      Fixed a problem in the implementation of the SizeOf and
      ObjectType operators where the operand was resolved to
      a value too early, causing incorrect return values for
      some objects.
      
      Fixed some possible memory leaks during exceptional conditions.

      [ACPI] Allow limiting idle C-States. · 0ca608f6
      Len Brown authored
      Useful to workaround C3 ipw2100 packet loss,
      reducing noise or boot issues on some models.
      http://bugme.osdl.org/show_bug.cgi?id=3549
      
      For static processor driver, boot cmdline:
      processor.acpi_cstate_limit=2
      
      For processor module, /etc/modprobe.conf:
      options processor acpi_cstate_limit=2
      
      For manual processor module load:
      # modprobe processor acpi_cstate_limit=2
      
      From kernel or kernel module:
      #include <linux/acpi.h>
      acpi_set_cstate_limit(2);
      
      Inspired by patches from Jos Delbar and Andi Kleen
