+ * There are several areas that are validated:
+ *
+ *  1) The number of input arguments as defined by the method/object in the

+ *  2) The type of the return object (if any) is validated against the ACPI

+ *  3) For returned package objects, the count of package elements is
+ *      validated, as well as the type of each package element. Nested
+ *      packages are supported.
+ *
+ * For any problems found, a warning message is issued.
