We have to fix this bug because local cache is always used for
userland applications, e.g., iasl.

BTW, I tried something like that long ago.  In fact, the first attempt
goes all the way back to this patch (warning: it's naive, broken, and
overly complicated):

http://people.freebsd.org/~jkim/acpica/OsdCache.diff

I have more up-to-date and correct patch to use UMA but I'm still not
100% convinced whether we want to do it or not.  When utcache.c works,
it works fairly well, actually. :-)
