PNPACPI: parse Extended Address Space Descriptors
Extended Address Space Descriptors are new in ACPI 3.0 and allow the
BIOS to communicate device resource cacheability attributes (write-back,
write-through, uncacheable, etc) to the OS.
Previously, PNPACPI ignored these descriptors, so if a BIOS used them,
a device could be responding at addresses the OS doesn't know about.
This patch adds support for these descriptors in _CRS and _PRS. We
don't attempt to encode them for _SRS (just like we don't attempt to
encode the existing 16-, 32-, and 64-bit Address Space Descriptors).
Unfortunately, I don't have a way to test this.
