the three string arguments. Similar to OperationRegion deferred
argument execution.)

ACPICA: Fixed a problem with AcpiGetDevices where the search of a branch of the device tree could be terminated prematurely

In accordance with the ACPI specification, the search is terminated
if a device is both not present and not functional (instead of
just not present.) Yakui Zhao.

Designed and implemented new external interfaces to install and
remove handlers for ACPI table-related events. Current events that
are defined are LOAD and UNLOAD. These interfaces allow the host to
track ACPI tables as they are dynamically loaded and unloaded. See
