Some platforms are unable to access the 900h-9ffh region over LPC and
must instead access memmap data through the ACPI CMD / DATA ports. To
avoid racing with data updates, disallow changes to multi-byte memmap
data while in burst mode.
Linux currently enables burst mode when accessing multi-byte data and
disables it immediately afterward, though the ACPI spec defines burst mode
in a more general way.
BUG=chrome-os-partner:38224
TEST=Manual on Samus. Undefine LPC_MEMMAP and modify asl to move memmap
data to ERAM at offset 0x20. Verify system boots cleanly and battery
status is updated immediately on plug / unplug.
