    I've just committed code disabling known-bad BIOS revisions. This will
    disable ACPI on such systems. If you think ACPI does work on your system
    or just want to test, set:

        hint.acpi.0.disabled="0"

    This will override the blacklist.

      Modified files:
        sys/dev/acpica acpi.c
      Log:
      Add new quirk code that disables problem BIOS versions. Remove old quirk
      code that was never really used. Print a message when disabling ACPI via
      a quirk. Allow the user to override the blacklist decision by setting
      hint.acpi.0.disabled="0". Add missing AcpiTerminate() calls; they are
      needed to clean up if bailing out after AcpiInitializeSubsystem().
