One way to experiment with a user-mode ACPI interpreter would be to
continue to use the kernel-mode interpreter for boot up , and cut over
to the user-mode interpreter at /sbin/init. The kernel-mode interpreter
could be sent the way of free_initmem() which is called just before
/sbin/init is invoked.
