ACPICA: Restore code that repairs NULL package elements in return values.
The original code was lost accidently, it was not generated along with the following commit of mechanism improvements and thus not get merged: Commit: d5a36100f62fa6db5541344e08b361b34e9114c5 Subject: ACPICA: Add mechanism for early object repairs on a per-name basis Adds the framework to allow object repairs very early in the return object analysis. Enables repairs like string->unicode, etc. This patch restores the implementation of the NULL element repair code for ACPI_RTYPE_NONE. In the original design, ACPI_RTYPE_NONE is defined to collect simple NULL object repairs. Lv Zheng.
