I think you are right that we should avoid redefining
ACPI_LEVEL_SENSITIVE and ACPI_ACTIVE_LOW. But I think if possible we
should also avoid redefining ACPI_MACHINE_WIDTH and
COMPILER_DEPENDENT_INT64. If possible, we should include the header file
with those definitions too (acpi/platform/acenv.h ?).
