Depending on ACPI version (1.0 -> 32 bit) an integer could be
32 or 64 bit long. _WED internal concatenates two integers and
the return value will be 8 byte (2* 32 bit) or 16 byte (2* 64 bit)
long, depending on the ACPI version.
Also the data send with the WMI event is defined to be splitted into:
- Event ID -> 4 bytes
- Event Data -> 4 bytes
This gets messed up with new ACPI versions.
But it's a HP BIOS bug that may get fixed in the future
-> Support both, 16 and 8 byte _WED buffers.
Also the wrong assumption that from the event data sent, only the
first byte is relevant got cleaned up that it fits event_id/event_data
as described above.
