My current plan is to implement a PSD which contains
1) the Intel ACPI core architecture library
2) the interrupt handler stuff required to support UNI/SMP IO-APICs and
ACPI events
3) most likely some device enumeration code to initialize devices still
left untouched by the BIOS
4) t.b.d.
If the system is running on a W4 kernel some ACPI support by some other
means is still possible but without taking advantage of IO-APICs.
Handling ACPI events may be more difficult then.
I won't put any efforts into supporting the non-PSD approach.
