ACPICA: Windows compatibility: autoexecute root _INI method
Add support for execution of an _INI method at the namespace root. Although not defined in the ACPI specification, this support was added to Windows around the Vista timeframe. It is added here for Windows compatibility. Signed-off-by: Bob Moore <robert.moore@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Lin Ming <ming.m.lin@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Len Brown <len.brown@intel.com>
