commit 64b3db22c0 (2.6.39),
"Remove use of unreliable FADT revision field" causes regression
for old P4 systems because now cst_control and other fields are
not reset to 0.
The effect is that acpi_processor_power_init will notice
cst_control != 0 and a write to CST_CNT register is performed
that should not happen. As result, the system oopses after the
"No _CST, giving up" message, sometimes in acpi_ns_internalize_name,
sometimes in acpi_ns_get_type, usually at random places. May be
during migration to CPU 1 in acpi_processor_get_throttling.
Every one of these settings help to avoid this problem:
- acpi=off
- processor.nocst=1
- maxcpus=1
The fix is to update acpi_gbl_FADT.header.length after
the original value is used to check for old revisions.

The revision number in the FADT has been found to be completely
unreliable and cannot be trusted. Only the table length can be

If both the 32-bit and 64-bit addresses are non-null, use the
32-bit address. Provides Windows compatibility.

Use the 32-bit register addresses whenever they are non-zero. This
means that the 32-bit addresses are favored over the 64-bit
(GAS) addresses. The 64-bit addresses are only used if the 32-bit
addresses are zero. This change provides compatibility with all
versions of Windows. The worst case that this solves is when both
the 32-bit and 64-bit addresses are non-zero, but only the 32-bit
addresses are actually valid. This appears to happen in some
BIOSes because in this case, Windows uses the 32-bit addresses.

Add new globals for the PM1 status registers (A/B), similar to the
way the PM1 enable registers are handled. Instead of overloading
the FADT Event Register blocks. This makes the code clearer and
less prone to error.
