OvmfPkg: _DIS and _SRS methods should have permanent effect
Kill PDIS and PSRS as they are writing to copies of PIR[A-D], not PIR[A-D]
themselves. Use specialized _DIS and _SRS methods that access PIR[A-D]
directly.
(This should be solvable by passing RefOf (PIRA) etc to PDIS/PSRS, however
the RHEL-6.3 kernel AML parser seems to choke on it. The rules described
in ACPIspec5.0 Table 19-316 "Object Storing and Copying Rules" don't seem
to work:
ACPI Error: Needed [Integer/String/Buffer], found [Reference]
ffff88003ee02420 (
20090903/exresop-422)
ACPI Exception: AE_AML_OPERAND_TYPE, While resolving operands for
[OpcodeName unavailable] (

ACPI Error (psparse-0537): Method parse/execution failed
[\_SB_.PCI0.LPC_.LNKA._DIS] (Node
ffff88003f638a10),
AE_AML_OPERAND_TYPE
When changing the method too, so that it writes to DerefOf (Arg0) instead
of Arg0, ie. explicitly dereferencing rather than expecting the auto-deref
to work:
ACPI Error: Needed type [Reference], found [RegionField]
ffff88003f639858 (
20090903/exresop-104)
ACPI Exception: AE_AML_OPERAND_TYPE, While resolving operands for

ACPI Error (psparse-0537): Method parse/execution failed
[\_SB_.PCI0.LPC_.LNKA._DIS] (Node
ffff88003f638a10),
AE_AML_OPERAND_TYPE
In short, when passing a RefOf, it is recognized as a reference inside the
method but mistakenly refused. When trying to deref it explicitly with
DerefOf, then it's suddenly not recognized as a reference.)
