Subject: [PATCH 01/17] ACPICA: Work around an ancient GCC bug.

From: Bob Moore <robert.moore@...el.com>

warning: cast from function call of type 'char *' to non-matching type 'long unsigned int'

Since acpi_ut_format_number() hasn't been enabled for the Linux kernel,
this patch doesn't affect the Linux kernel.
