ACPICA: Integrate package handling with module-level code
Due to the lots of changes in this commit and other regressions concern
So made a sauce patch in Bionic kernel with the specific BIOS series.
Verified on several laptops. Fix boot failure and no regression found.
The upstream fix is in 4.17-rc1, so only Bionic/OEM 4.15 kernels need
it.
