[PATCH] ACPICA: allow Load(OEMx) tables

[PATCH] ACPICA: allow Load(OEMx) tables

[Len Brown]

HP and Hitachi machines have been implemented with SSDTs
that use the "OEMx" signatures.  But upon Load, ACPICA is rejecting
these tables because they are not using the "SSDT" signature.

ACPI Error (tbinstal-0134): Table has invalid signature [OEMx], must be SSDT...
