[PATCH] ACPI: Fix 2.6.21 boot regression on P4/HT

Up through 2.6.20 we cleared the FADT.CSTATE_CONTROL field
for FADT versions before r3, because it made no sense
for that reserved field to be set for pre-ACPI 2.0 systems.

It turns out that not clearing this field exposes
Linux to SMM BIOS failures, so do the same in 2.6.21.
