ACPICA: Fix wrong interpretation of PCC address

ACPICA commit 41be6afacfdaec2dba3a5ed368736babc2a7aa5c
With the PCC Opregion in the firmware and we are hitting below kernel crash:

---[ end trace 24d8a032fa77b68a ]---
The reason for the crash is that the PCC channel index passed via region.address
in acpi_ex_store_object_to_node is interpreted as the channel subtype
incorrectly.
Assuming the PCC op_region support is not used by any other type, let us
remove the subtype check as the AML has no access to the subtype information.
Once we remove it, the kernel crash disappears and correctly complains about
missing PCC Opregion handler.
