Adds install/remove interfaces so that the host can dynamically
alter the global _OSI table. Also adds support for _OSI handlers.
Additional support: new debugger command (osi), and test support in
the acpiexec utility. Adds new file, utilities/utosi.c.
ACPICA bugzilla 836.
The Linux OSL _OSI code is also changed.
acpi_osi_setup can't call acpi_install/remove_interface because ACPICA
is not initialized yet at this early time.
So we just save the osi string in acpi_osi_setup and will handle it
later in a new function acpi_osi_setup_late.

The current ACPI GPEs initialization code has a problem that it
enables some GPEs pointed to by device _PRW methods, generally
intended for signaling wakeup events (system or device wakeup).
These GPEs are then almost immediately disabled by the ACPI namespace
scanning code with the help of acpi_gpe_can_wake(), but it would be
better not to enable them at all until really necessary.
Modify the initialization of GPEs so that the ones that have
associated _Lxx or _Exx methods and are not pointed to by any _PRW
methods will be enabled after the namespace scan is complete.

Currently, during initialization ACPICA walks the entire ACPI
namespace in search of any device objects with assciated _PRW
methods. All of the _PRW methods found are executed in the process
to extract the GPE information returned by them, so that the GPEs in
question can be marked as "able to wakeup" (more precisely, the
ACPI_GPE_CAN_WAKE flag is set for them). The only purpose of this
exercise is to avoid enabling the CAN_WAKE GPEs automatically, even
if there are _Lxx/_Exx methods associated with them. However, it is
both costly and unnecessary, because the host OS has to execute the
_PRW methods anyway to check which devices can wake up the system
from sleep states. Moreover, it then uses full information
returned by _PRW, including the GPE information, so it can take care
of disabling the GPEs if necessary.
Remove the code that walks the namespace and executes _PRW from
ACPICA and modify comments to reflect that change. Make
acpi_bus_set_run_wake_flags() disable GPEs for wakeup devices
so that they don't cause spurious wakeup events to be signaled.
This not only reduces the complexity of the ACPICA initialization
code, but in some cases it should reduce the kernel boot time as
well.
Unfortunately, for this purpose we need a new ACPICA function,
acpi_gpe_can_wake(), to be called by the host OS in order to disable
the GPEs that can wake up the system and were previously enabled by
acpi_ev_initialize_gpe_block() or acpi_ev_update_gpes() (such a GPE
should be disabled only once, because the initialization code enables
it only once, but it may be pointed to by _PRW for multiple devices
and that's why the additional function is necessary).

Add limited support for executable AML code that exists outside
of any control method. This type of code has been illegal since
ACPI 2.0. The code must exist in an If/Else/While block. All AML
tables are supported, including tables that are dynamically loaded.

Fixes a problem with the mechanism that prevents problems if the
acpi_terminate interface is inadvertently called more than once
before the ACPICA code is re-initialized. ACPICA BZ 795.
