Add down_timeout and change ACPI to use it
ACPI currently emulates a timeout for semaphores with calls to
down_trylock and sleep. This produces horrible behaviour in terms of
fairness and excessive wakeups. Now that we have a unified semaphore
implementation, adding a real down_trylock is almost trivial.
