[coreboot] ACPI support on M57SLI

[Florentin Demetrescu]

Hello everyone,

The last release works for me wonderfully almost "out of the box". (still don't
like HAVE_HIGH_TABLES :/)

As a premium, the hvm virtualization works too. (kvm)

Again, congratulation for all the work done by the coreboot team (and especialy
Harald) for this board! I think we can now validate all of its features on the
wiki..
