Christian Prochaska 193a401097 Increase RAM quota of ACPI driver to 4M
On some machines, more than 3 MiB are needed. This finally equalizes all
occurences of RAM quotas with drivers_managed.

Fixes #3443

This directory contains an implementation of a simple ACPI parser
Behavior
--------
This server should be used when using a kernel (like Fiasco.OC, Nova,
base_hw x86_64) that takes advantage of x86's APIC. The server traverses the
ACPI tables and reports the interrupt line of devices within the PCI config
space of GSIs found in the ACPI tables. The 'MADT' table is parsed by the
server as well, enabling clients to use the correct IRQ when
'Interrupt Override' structures are found within the table. All information
are reported to a report_rom service as "acpi" report. The report can be
consumed by any interested party, e.g. the platform driver. Please consult
the platform driver README for more details.
