Cannot use a sync_level for methods that have been serialized at load-time
or runtime because this may interfere with any existing use of sync_levels
within the ASL code. So, we simply ignore the sync_level for these methods,
thus preserving any existing sync_level priorities. Note, the use of
sync_levels is actually rather rare within BIOS ASL code.

This change adds some additional opcodes that are detected and will
cause a method to be auto-serialized. These opcodes are the various
CreateXField and the FieldUnit opcodes. Lv Zheng.

This change adds support to automatically mark a control method as
"serialized" if the method creates any named objects. This will
positively prevent the method from being entered by more than one
thread and thus preventing a possible abort when an attempt is
made to create an object twice.
Implemented by parsing all non-serialize control methods at table
load time.
This feature is disabled by default and this patch also adds a new
Linux kernel parameter "acpi_auto_serialize" to allow this feature
to be turned on for a specific boot.

This is a cosmetic patch only. Comparison of the resulting binary showed
only line number differences.
This patch does not affect the generation of the Linux binary.
This patch decreases 170 lines of 20121018 divergence.diff.
This patch updates ACPICA codes surrounded by some disabled build options
so that the source code diff between Linux and ACPICA can be reduced.
Some of these build options may never be used in the kernel, so they may
be deleted entirely in future patches.

History: This support changes a method to "serialized" on the fly if the
method generates an AE_ALREADY_EXISTS error, indicating the possibility
that it cannot handle reentrancy.
This fix repairs a couple of issues seen in the field, especially on
machines with many cores.
1) Delete method children only upon the exit of the last thread, so
as to not delete objects out from under running threads.
2) Set the "serialized" bit for the method only upon the exit of the
last thread, so as to not cause deadlock when running threads attempt
to exit.
3) Cleanup the use of the AML "MethodFlags" and internal method flags
so that there is no longer any confustion between the two.

Change definition of acpi_thread_id to always be a u64. This
simplifies the code, especially any printf output. u64 is
the only common data type for all thread_id types across all
operating systems. We now force the OSL to cast the native
thread_id type to u64 before returning the value to ACPICA
(via acpi_os_get_thread_id).
