[PATCH 2/3] ACPICA: Fix access width for reset vector

From: Matthew Garrett
Date: Thu Dec 09 2010 - 16:47:33 EST


Section 4.7.3.6 of the ACPI specification requires that the register width
of the reset vector be 8 bits. Windows simply hardcodes the access to be
a byte and ignores the width provided in the FADT, so make sure that we
do the same.
