Xen devel - Sep 2008 - [PATCH 1/2][Domain0] Fix ACPICA to correctly parse cpufreq information

These two patches are pulled from linux kernel upstream, to allow ACPICA
corretly parse cpufreq info from some non-standard BIOS. We find current cpufreq
in Xen does not work correctly in some machine, and these two patch fix this
issue.

    ACPICA: Handle mis-matched package length

    Implement support within the AML interpreter for
    package objects that contain a mismatch between the AML
    length and package element count. In this case, the lesser
    of the two is used. Some BIOS code apparently modifies
    the package length on the fly, and this change supports
    this. Provides compatibility with the MS AML interpreter.
