This patch is based on the recent patch from Vincent Minet. I split Vincent's
changes into 2 patches (to separate MADT and RSDT table cleanup, as suggested by
Marcelo) and added a bit to them.

There has been much ado over the acpi_bios_init function recently. I had actually done a rewrite very similar to Gleb's, but Avi argued that the rewrite has to be more incremental. This patch contains minimal changes without any rewrite because the changes are kvm-only. The rewrite would better be a separate step, submitted to qemu and then merged into kvm.
I am submitting the RSDT fix to kvm because the kvm and qemu RSDT implementation differs.
Again, as a separate rewrite effort, the kvm and qemu RSDT manipulation could be merged into one base as a later, separate step.

This patch will get MADT into reasonable enough shape for me to resubmit hpet patches
on top of it. After that, I'd be willing to submit incremental rewrite patches for acpi_bios_init to qemu, starting with MADT and RSDT.

Applied both, thanks.
