[ACPI] Avoid BIOS inflicted crashes by evaluating _PDC only once

Linux invokes the AML _PDC method (Processor Driver Capabilities)
to tell the BIOS what features it can handle.  While the ACPI
spec says nothing about the OS invoking _PDC multiple times,
doing so with changing bits seems to hopelessly confuse the BIOS
on multiple platforms up to and including crashing the system.

Factor out the _PDC invocation so Linux invokes it only once.
