Bug Description
A HP BIOS was found in the wild that had a 64 bit PM register that was *different* to the 32 bit PM register, and the 32 bit address was correct but the 64 bit address was not.
Upstream ACPICA commit 4da56eeae0749df
So.. we should add some sanity checks for this scenario. Attached is the faulty ACPI tables for reference.
