Remove support for autoloading ACPI from the loader. Leave in the code to

Fix device hints entry for disabling acpi(4).
This also should fix the arbitration with apm(4) when both drivers
are enabled.
Note that your /boot/device.hints needs to be updated if you want to
stop auto-loading acpi.ko or disable acpi(4).
