-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let us know.

From: Bob Moore <robert.moore@intel.com>

As detailed at http://bugs.gentoo.org/131534 :

2.6.16 converted many ACPI debug messages into error or warning
messages. One extraneous message was incorrectly converted, resulting in
logs being flooded by "Handle is NULL and Pathname is relative" messages
on some systems.

This patch (part of a larger ACPICA commit) converts the message back to
debug level.
