Sync ACPICA with Intel's version 20160422.

* Fixed AcpiHwRead/AcpiHwWrite regression from 20160318. It was
insufficiently worked around by me in 3b9bfd22b87e14, but was
still causing issues with qemu (as reported by zrj).

* Support for I2cSerialBusV2, SpiSerialBusV2 and UartSerialBusV2.
The original non-V2 names are deprecated. V2 macros have one
new argument.

* Support for new integer field in _BIX's returned package object.

* New PCCT subtable (HW-Reduced Comm Subspace Type2).

* Various improvements to iASL.

This reverts commit 9cefb7c89c63c495157c0c77d761030bf2bea9b0.

It is causing issues with acpi_timer which I need to investigate.
Revert it until then so that people don't run into subtle issues.

Sync ACPICA with Intel's version 20160212.

* ACPI specification 6.1 support.

* Ensure \_SB_._INI is executed before any _REG methods are executed.

* Reverted a change made in version 20151218 which enabled method
invocations to be targets of various ASL operators (SuperName and
Target grammar elements). Also, disallow this in iASL (flagged as
errors now) in preparation for ACPI 6.2.

* Completed full support for the ACPI 6.0 External() AML opcode.

* In iASL, implemented support for an optional cross-reference
output file.

Sync ACPICA with Intel's version 20160108.

This includes the 20151218 upgrade which we had to revert again because
of a bug found by tkusumi. The only major change in 20160108 is a fix
for this bug.

Sync ACPICA with Intel's version 20160108.

This includes the 20151218 upgrade which we had to revert again because
of a bug found by tkusumi. The only major change in 20160108 is a fix
for this bug.

20151218 changes:

* Execute "module-level code" as ACPI tables are loaded into the
namespace during initialization and install the default operation
region handlers for the SystemMemory, SystemIO and PCI_Config
address spaces before any ACPI tables are loaded (in order to
enable module-level code to access these address spaces). Also,
several changes to the internal _REG support and to utilities
in conjunction with these changes.

20160108 changes:

* Fixed a regression introduced in version 20151218 concerning the
execution of so-called module-level ASL/AML code. Namespace objects
created under a module-level If() construct were not properly/fully
entered into the namespace and could cause an interpreter fault when
accessed.

* Fixed a problem with the compilation of the GpioIo and GpioInt resource
descriptors. The _PIN field name was incorrectly defined to be an array
of 32-bit values, but the _PIN values are in fact 16 bits each. This
would cause incorrect bit width warnings when using Word (16-bit) fields
to access the descriptors.

Additionally, some minor fixes, features etc. were added.
