ACPICA: Events: Enhance acpi_ev_execute_reg_method() to ensure no _REG evaluations can happen during OS early boot stages
ACPICA commit 31178590dde82368fdb0f6b0e466b6c0add96c57 We can ensure no early _REG evaluations by ensuring the following rules in acpi_ev_execute_reg_method(): 1. If an address space handler is installed during early stage, _REG(CONNECT) evaluations are blocked. This is achieved using acpi_gbl_reg_methods_enabled which is renamed from acpi_gbl_reg_methods_executed. 2. If _REG(CONNECT) has never been evalauted for the region object, _REG(DISCONNECT) evaluations are blocked. This is achieved by a new region object flag: AOPOBJ_REG_CONNECTED. Note that, after applying this patch, we can ensure _REG(DISCONNECT) is always paired to _REG(CONNECT).
