ACPICA: New: Validation for predefined ACPI methods/objects 



Validates predefined ACPI objects that appear in the namespace,
at the time they are evaluated. The argument count and the type of
the returned object are validated. The purpose of this validation
is to detect problems with the BIOS-exposed predefined ACPI objects
before the results are returned to the ACPI-related drivers.
