ACPICA: Performance enhancement for namespace search and access
This change enhances the performance of namespace searches and
walks by adding a backpointer to the parent in each namespace
node. On large namespaces, this change can improve overall ACPI
performance by up to 9X. Adding a pointer to each namespace node
increases the overall size of the internal namespace by about 5%,
since each namespace entry usually consists of both a namespace
node and an ACPI operand object.
