In low power modes, the chip clock source for platform integrated
devices is 32kHz. It is generated internally and supplied by a crystal
oscillator. However using a 32kHz sourced from crystal oscillator
has high power penalty.
There is an option to get an external 32kHz clock from the platform. Past
experience shows that the reliability is platform dependent,
i.e. on some platforms it works good and on other it doesn’t.
Working from external clock will save 0.5 mW in sleep state, from overall
1.8mW that we have today, i.e. almost 30%.
Each OEM can enable or disable the use of the external 32kHz clock by
setting a BIOS configuration. In case the OEM configured to use 32kHz
external clock the driver will pass this indication to the FW.

The Free Software Foundation address is superfluous and causes
checkpatch to issue a warning when present. Remove all paragraphs
with FSF's address to prevent that.

Move most of the set_dflt_pwr_limit() function to acpi.c and make it
return the pwr_limit value instead of setting directly. Also rename
it to iwl_acpi_get_pwr_limit().

The iwl_get_bios_mcc() function was in the iwl-nvm-parse.c file, but
it has nothing to do with the NVM. Move it to fw/acpi.c and rename it
to iwl_acpi_get_mcc().

Move this function to acpi.c, renaming it to iwl_acpi_get_wifi_pkg(),
because it can also be used with other methods (i.e. SPLC and WRDD).

There are many places where the same process of invoking a method from
ACPI is used, causing a lot of duplicate code. To improve this,
introduce a new function to get an ACPI object by invoking an ACPI
method that can be reused.
Additionally, since this function needs to be called when we only have
the trans, the opmode or the device, introduce a new debug macro that
gets the device as a parameter so it can be used in the new function.
