[PATCH 2/3] x86: remove duplicated parser for "pci=noacpi" 

Remove "pci=noacpi" parse in acpi/boot.c, because it is duplicated 
with that in pci/common.c.

/include/asm-x86_64/acpi.h (and asm-i386)
acpi_disable_pci : 

#ifdef CONFIG_ACPI
static inline void acpi_noirq_set(void) { acpi_noirq = 1; }
static inline void acpi_disable_pci(void)
{
    acpi_pci_disabled = 1;
    acpi_noirq_set();
}
#else   /* !CONFIG_ACPI */
#define acpi_ioapic 0
static inline void acpi_noirq_set(void) { }
static inline void acpi_disable_pci(void) { }

so first hunk of the patch doesn't have nothing in common with second ,
and it is different disable acpi_irqs than disable all acpi,
callacpi_disable_pci () is acpi=off.

My main goal when I read this mail was delete acpi=noirq or pci=noacpi
because is a redundant boot option which just make confusions.  

I have to go (sleep)
