Subject[patch 27/33] ACPI: Avoid array address overflow when _CST MWAIT hint bits are set
2.6.28-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let us know.

------------------

From: Zhao Yakui <yakui.zhao@intel.com>

commit 13b40a1a065824d2d4e55c8b48ea9f3f9d162929 upstream.

The Cx Register address obtained from the _CST object is used as the MWAIT
hints if the register type is FFixedHW. And it is used to check whether
the Cx type is supported or not.

On some boxes the following Cx state package is obtained from _CST object:
>{
ResourceTemplate ()
{
Register (FFixedHW,
0x01, // Bit Width
0x02, // Bit Offset
0x0000000000889759, // Address
0x03, // Access Size
)
},

0x03,
0xF5,
0x015E }

In such case we should use the bit[7:4] of Cx address to check whether
the Cx type is supported or not.

mask the MWAIT hint to avoid array address overflow
