"acpi: 0 PCI interrupts routed through _PRT" on an AMD board meant that
every PCIe bridge's devices are wired to the second I/O APIC, which is not
driven. It says so now, and that those devices need MSI.
"vga: framebuffer disagreement" on an NVIDIA card compared the GOP's
framebuffer against BAR0, a 16 MB register block big enough to pass for a
screen. The BAR that contains the framebuffer is preferred now.

The firmware's AML is now interpreted. uACPI 6.1.1 (MIT) is fetched by
ports/uacpi, checksum-verified, and compiled into the kernel unmodified,
the same way lwIP is. kernel/acpi/host.c is its host layer: memory,
mapping, port and PCI config I/O, time, mutexes and events that spin
before the scheduler exists, the SCI, and an "acpi" thread for the
work the SCI defers.
PCI interrupts go where the board says. pci_init() now routes every
device's INTx through the root bridge's _PRT before drivers bind. It
follows link devices' _CRS, uses a bridge's own _PRT where the namespace
has one, and swizzles through bridges that don't. Before this, INTx
waited on the 8259's line number, which is the wrong pin in APIC mode.
irq_register() takes a trigger mode rather than a level/low flag,
because q35's links and most SCIs are level, active-high. The MADT's
interrupt source overrides are now parsed, and are what places the SCI.
The power button syncs the filesystems and powers off. shutdown() and
reboot() go through the firmware's S5 and reset register first, and
only then fall back to the emulators' ports, which a real board does
not answer.
Tested under QEMU: q35 with MSI off routes xHCI to GSI 22,
level/active-high, and it takes real interrupts with nothing polled.
system_powerdown powers off q35 and i440fx (QEMU exits 0), and q35
with 4 CPUs boots from NVMe with USB hot-plug working alongside.
