Subject: [PATCH V2] ACPI/Battery: Add a _BIX quirk for NEC LZ750/LS

The aml method _BIX of NEC LZ750/LS returns a broken package which
skip the first member "Revision" according ACPI 5.0 spec Table 10-234.

This patch is to add a quirk for this machine to skip member "Revision"
during parsing _BIX returned package.
