Important things to make ACPI useful on more machines:
* Split the Region initialization into two passes -- one that fills in
AddressSpace pointers, and one that calls _REG methods. Right now we
can lose due to a _REG method for one Region calling a method that
accesses another Region that hasn't been fixed up yet. (Affects
Sverre Froyen's HP Omnibook 6000.)
* Fix problems with ACPI_PCI_FIXUP. CardBus slots do not work in some
machines currently. (Affects many machines.)
* Add support for attaching acpiec devices early using the ECDT. Some
systems need this because otherwise their _INI methods try to access
regions in the EC space before it's initialized. (Affects Steve
Rumble's Thinkpad T23.)
* Deal with the "implicit return" problem for older laptops. (Mostly
affects older Toshiba laptops, like the Portege 7140.)
* Fix the locking protocol in acpiec.
* Support thermal levels and fan control in acpitz.
