Public bug reported:

ASL now has some very useful "Remark" feedback, so we should think about
getting this output also logged in the syntaxcheck test.   I suggest a
--syntaxcheck-pedantic option that turns this on, or maybe we should
just enable it by default and make the warnings a low level failure.

Example remark:

DSDT.dsl   5811:                     Method (_BIF, 0, NotSerialized)
Remark   2120 -                                ^ Control Method should be made 
Serialized (due to creation of named objects within)

..so this is useful since the _BIF control is tagged as NotSerialized
yet it should be to stop potential race conditions.

This requires:

1.  Working through all the ASL remarks and adding these to the .json database
2.  Either adding the --syntaxcheck-pedantic flag, or enabling this by default.
