ACPICA: Implemented full support for deferred execution for the TermArg string arguments for DataTableRegion

This enables forward references and full operand resolution for
the three string arguments. Similar to OperationRegion deferred
argument execution.)

Some time ago it turned out that our suspend code ordering broke some
NVidia-based systems that hung if _PTS was executed with one of the PCI
devices, specifically a USB controller, in a low power state.

Then, it was noticed that the suspend code ordering was not compliant
with ACPI 1.0, although it was compliant with ACPI 2.0 (and later), and
it was argued that the code had to be changed for that reason (ref.
http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=9528).

So we did, but evidently we did wrong, because it's now turning out that
some systems have been broken by this change. Refs:
	http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=10340
	https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=374217#c16

[ I said at that time that something like this might happend, but the
  majority of people involved thought that it was improbable due to the
  necessity to preserve the compliance of hardware with ACPI 1.0. ]

This actually is a quite serious regression from 2.6.24.

Moreover, the ACPI 1.0 ordering of suspend code introduced another issue
that I have only noticed recently.  Namely, if the suspend of one of
devices fails, the already suspended devices will be resumed without
executing _WAK before, which leads to problems on some systems (for
example, in such situations thermal management is broken on my HP
nx6325).  Consequently, it also breaks suspend debugging on the affected
systems.

Note also, that the requirement to execute _PTS before suspending
devices does not really make sense, because the device in question may
be put into a low power state at run time for a reason unrelated to a
system-wide suspend.

For the reasons outlined above, the change of the suspend ordering
should be reverted, which is done by the patch below.

  I just tried current git head (two hours ago) with the patch (the one

  the patch my MacBook does suspend without it does not." ]

Revert commit 1192aeb9 ("ACPI:
drivers/acpi: elide a non-zero test on a result that is never 0")
because it turns out that thermal_cooling_device_register() does
actually return NULL if CONFIG_THERMAL is turned off (then the routine
turns into a dummy inline routine in the header files that returns NULL
unconditionally).

This was found with randconfig testing, causing a crash during bootup:
