+ *
+ * FUNCTION:    acpi_ns_repair_package_list
+ *
+ * PARAMETERS:  Data                - Pointer to validation data structure
+ *              obj_desc_ptr        - Pointer to the object to repair. The new
+ *                                    package object is returned here,
+ *                                    overwriting the old object.
+ *
+ * RETURN:      Status, new object in *obj_desc_ptr
+ *
+ * DESCRIPTION: Repair a common problem with objects that are defined to return
+ *              a variable-length Package of Packages. If the variable-length
+ *              is one, some BIOS code mistakenly simply declares a single
+ *              Package instead of a Package with one sub-Package. This
+ *              function attempts to repair this error by wrapping a Package
+ *              object around the original Package, creating the correct
+ *              Package with one sub-Package.
+ *
+ *              Names that can be repaired in this manner include:
+ *              _ALR, _CSD, _HPX, _MLS, _PRT, _PSS, _TRT, TSS
