The _PCL error, ex. "Detected error 'Type' when evaluating
'\_SB_.ADP0._PCL'" can also be the result of mis-match with ACPI spec.
For example, the ADP0._PCL returns a NAME when ACPI spec requires "A
variable-length Package containing a list of References to devices or
buses". This is very common error in BIOS.
Oddly enough, the battery device returns the the correctly output.
Fortunately, Linux kernel does not actually use the _PCL object and we
can safely ignore it. We may also improve FWTS not to trigger CRITICAL
failure for _PCL but this will wait for further discussion in FWTS team.
