Fixes a problem where mutex errors can occur when running a _REG
method that is in the same scope as a method-defined operation
region or an operation region under a module-level IF block.
This is rare, so the problem has not been seen before.

This change enhances the automatic repairs/conversions for
predefined name return values to make Integers, Strings, and
Buffers fully interchangeable. Also, a Buffer can be converted
to a Package of Integers if necessary. The nsrepair.c module was
completely restructured.

The expected return value for both names is a Buffer of 5 DWORDS.
This repair fixes two possible problems (both seen in the field):
A package of integers is returned, or a buffer of BYTEs is returned.

This message happens when the package element list is longer than
the declared length of the package. Changed to an info message
because this condition is not actually an error. It is caused by
the BIOS attempting to truncate the package on the fly by adjusting
the package element count at the start of the package definition.

Fixes a possible memory leak in the interpreter for package
objects if the package initializer list is longer than the
defined size of the package. This apparently can only happen
if the BIOS changes the package size on the fly (seen in a _PSS
object), as both iASL and the other compiler do not allow this.
The interpreter will truncate the package to the defined size
(and issue an error message), but can leave the extra objects
undeleted if they have been pre-created during the argument
processing (such is the case if the package consists of a number
of sub-packages as in the _PSS.) ACPICA BZ 805.

Fixes a problem where a predefined method is defined to return
a variable-length Package of sub-packages. If the length is one,
the BIOS code occasionally creates a simple single package with
no sub-packages. This code attempts to fix the problem by wrapping
a new package object around the existing package. ACPICA BZ 790.

If the dynamic region is created and added to resource list over and over again,
it has the potential to be a memory leak by growing the list every time.
This patch fixes the memory leak, as below
1) add a new field "count" to struct acpi_res_list.
When inserting, if the region(addr, len) is already in the resource
list, we just increase "count", otherwise, the region is inserted
with count=1.
When deleting, the "count" is decreased, if it's decreased to 0,
the region is deleted from the resource list.
With "count", the region with same address and length can only be
inserted to the resource list once, so prevent potential memory leak.
2) add a new function acpi_os_invalidate_address, which is called when
region is deleted.
