Here's an updated revision of acpi runtime patching patchset. Lightly tested.
changes in v4: - split PCI hotplug handling out to a separate SSDT
Changes in v3: - change ssdt generation code to get rid of hardcoded offsets - enhancements to acpi_extract: add more extract methods ACPI_EXTRACT_NAME_WORD_CONST - extract a Word Const object from Name() ACPI_EXTRACT_NAME_BYTE_CONST - extract a Byte Const object from Name() ACPI_EXTRACT_PROCESSOR_START - start of Processor() block ACPI_EXTRACT_PROCESSOR_STRING - extract a NameString from Processor() ACPI_EXTRACT_PROCESSOR_END - offset at last byte of Processor() + 1
Changes in v2: - tools rewritten in python - Original ASL retains _EJ0 methods, BIOS patches that to EJ0_ - generic ACP_EXTRACT infrastructure that can match Method and Name Operators - instead of matching specific method name, insert tags in original DSL source and match that to AML

Here's a bug: guest thinks it can eject VGA device and ISA bridge.

This is wrong because slots 1 and 2 are marked as not hotpluggable in qemu.
The reason is that our acpi tables declare both _RMV with value 0, and _EJ0 method for these slots. What happens in this case is undocumented by ACPI spec, so linux ignores _RMV, and windows seems to ignore _EJ0.
The correct way to suppress hotplug is not to have _EJ0, so this is what this patch does: it probes PIIX and modifies DSDT to match.
With these patches applied, we get:
