hmm, looks like this has been broken since the day
acpi_os_initialize1() was invented in 2004.

Turns out that the bug and its fix are moot, however,
as acpi_os_initialize1() is hard-coded to return success,
opting for BUG_ON() if it sees a failure...

So unless that changes, I'd prefer to keep the code
simple and just not check its status -- which is effectively
what we're doing right now.

thanks,
