   [ACPI] ACPICA 20040220 from Bob Moore
   
   Implemented execution of _SxD methods for Device objects in the
   GetObjectInfo interface.
   
   Fixed calls to _SST method to pass the correct arguments.
   
   Added a call to _SST on wake to restore to "working" state.
   
   Check for End-Of-Buffer failure case in the WalkResources interface.
   
   Integrated fix for 64-bit alignment issue in acglobal.h by moving two
   structures to the beginning of the file.
   
   After wake, clear GPE status register(s) before enabling GPEs.
   
   After wake, clear/enable power button.
   (Perhaps we should clear/enable all fixed events upon wake.)
