acpica-tools/name-miscompare.patch

On big-endian machines, a test case looking for the methods _L1D and _E1D

From: Al Stone <ahs3@redhat.com>

in the same scope would fail (see tests/misc/badcode.asl:184).  The names
to be compared were being treated as 32-bit ints, and not strings.  Hence,
the characters were re-ordered incorrectly, mismatching the assumptions
made in the remainder of the function.
