Removed several small pathname functions to increase efficiency.
Essentially, they replace a function call with a single compare.

Repair a common problem with objects that are defined to return
a variable-length Package of sub-objects. If there is only one
sub-object, some BIOS code mistakenly simply declares the single
object instead of a Package with one sub-object. This function
attempts to repair this error by wrapping a Package object around
the original object, creating the correct and expected Package
with one sub-object.

This keeps the output files clean of random error messages that
may originate from within the namespace/interpreter code.

This change enhances the performance of namespace searches and
walks by adding a backpointer to the parent in each namespace
node. On large namespaces, this change can improve overall ACPI
performance by up to 9X. Adding a pointer to each namespace node
increases the overall size of the internal namespace by about 5%,
since each namespace entry usually consists of both a namespace
node and an ACPI operand object.

Add 2010 copyright to all module headers and signons, including
the Linux header. This affects virtually every file in the ACPICA

This change will automatically remove embedded and trailing NULL
package elements from returned package objects that are defined
to containe a variable number of sub-packages. The driver is then
presented with a package with no null elements to deal with.

Add limited support for executable AML code that exists outside
of any control method. This type of code has been illegal since
ACPI 2.0. The code must exist in an If/Else/While block. All AML
tables are supported, including tables that are dynamically loaded.

Fixes a problem where a predefined method is defined to return
a variable-length Package of sub-packages. If the length is one,
the BIOS code occasionally creates a simple single package with
no sub-packages. This code attempts to fix the problem by wrapping
a new package object around the existing package. ACPICA BZ 790.
