Bug description:
Binary package hint: fwts

FADT test should be pulling FADT table data from /sys/firmware/acpi/tables/FACP and not FADT.  This bug crept in when moving from reading the tables from the output from acpidump to reading the data directly from /sys/firmware

Also, reading the GAS data from the FADT was not fully implemented, so the tests failed even when the ACPI data was correct.
