ACPICA: Methods now implicitly return 0 in slack mode
Implemented an enhancement to the interpreter "slack mode". In the absence of an explicit return or an implicitly returned object from the last executed opcode, a control method will now implicitly return an integer of value 0 for Microsoft compatibility. http://www.acpica.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=392 Signed-off-by: Lin Ming <ming.m.lin@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Bob Moore <robert.moore@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Alexey Starikovskiy <astarikovskiy@suse.de> Signed-off-by: Len Brown <len.brown@intel.com>
