Felix Held 048c2f2ac0 Documentation/acpi: add Windows-specific documentation
When using the Windows fast startup mechanism which is enabled by
default, Windows will use a cached version of the ACPI tables during
normal boots after a clean shutdown. Since I've run into this issue and
spent quite a bit of time debugging the wrong issue due to this, better
document this possibly unexpected behavior.

Marc Jones dee0d45ab4 Documentation: Move devicetree documentation
Move devicetree.md from acpi/ to getting_started/. The devicetree has
nothing to do with ACPI and getting_started has the most similar
information about coreboot.

Christian Walter be3979c873 acpi: Change Processor ACPI Name (Intel only)
The ACPI Spec 2.0 states, that Processor declarations should be made
within the ACPI namespace \_SB and not \_PR anymore. \_PR is deprecated
and is removed here for Intel CPUs only.

Tested on:
* X11SSH (Kabylake)
* CFL Platform
* Asus P8Z77-V LX2 and Windows 10

FWTS does not return FAIL anymore on ACPI tests

Patrick Rudolph c83bab62b3 acpi: Be more ACPI compliant when generating _UID
* Add function to generate unique _UID using CRC32
* Add function to write the _UID based on a device's ACPI path

ACPI devices that have the same _HID must use different _UID.
Linux doesn't care about _UID if it's not used.
Windows 10 verifies the ACPI code on boot and BSODs if two devices
with the same _HID share the same _UID.

Fixes BSOD seen on Windows 10.
