   [ACPI4ASUS] globalize hotk structure
   
   This cleans the code up a bit, but mainly allows most functions
   to be called externally when need (read: video driver) arises.

   [ACPI] Enable ACPICA workarounds for 'RELAXED_AML' and 'implicit
return'

<len.brown@intel.com> (04/08/20 1.1803.119.5)
   [ACPI] ACPICA 20040816 update from Bob Moore
   
   Designed and implemented support within the AML interpreter
   for the so-called implicit return.  This support returns
   the result of the last ASL operation within a control
   method, in the absence of an explicit Return() operator.
   A few machines depend on this behavior, even though it
   is not explicitly supported by the ASL language.  It is
   optional support that can be enabled at runtime via the
   acpi_gbl_enable_interpreter_slack flag.
   
   Removed support for the PCI_Config address space from the
   internal low level hardware interfaces (acpi_hw_low_level_read
   and acpi_hw_low_level_write).  This support was not used
   internally, and would not work correctly anyway because
   the PCI bus number and segment number were not supported.
   There are separate interfaces for PCI configuration space
   access because of the unique interface.
