Bob Moore ecfbbc7b46 ACPICA: New: acpi_read and acpi_write public interfaces
Changed the acpi_hw_low_level_read and acpi_hw_low_level_write functions to
the public acpi_read and acpi_write to allow direct access to
ACPI registers.  Removed the "width" parameter since the width
can be obtained from the input GAS structure. Updated the FADT
initialization to setup the GAS structures with the proper
widths. Some widths are still hardcoded because many FADTs have
incorrect register lengths.

Zhao Yakui 8fd145917f ACPI: Ingore the RESET_REG_SUP bit when using ACPI reset mechanism
According to ACPI 3.0, FADT.flags.RESET_REG_SUP indicates
whether the ACPI reboot mechanism is supported.

However, some boxes have this bit clear, have a valid
ACPI_RESET_REG & RESET_VALUE, and ACPI reboot is the only
mechanism that works for them after S3.

This suggests that other operating systems may not be checking
the RESET_REG_SUP bit, and are using other means to decide
whether to use the ACPI reboot mechanism or not.

Here we stop checking RESET_REG_SUP.
Instead, When acpi reboot is requested,
only the reset_register is checked. If the following
conditions are met, it indicates that the reset register is supported.
	a. reset_register is not zero
	b. the access width is eight
	c. the bit_offset is zero
