ACPI: fix boot hang w/o "noapic" on MSI MS-6390-L
This is a workaround to handle a BIOS bug where the
programmer exchanged the name and index fields of
a _PRT entry. Apparently this BIOS error does not
confuse Windows and thus it lurks in the field
on various machines.
boot with "acpi=strict" to disable this workaround
