ACPI: handle invalid ACPI SLIT table
This is a SLIT sanity checking patch. It moves slit_valid() function to
generic ACPI code and does sanity checking for both x86 and ia64. It sets up
node_distance with LOCAL_DISTANCE and REMOTE_DISTANCE when hitting invalid
SLIT table on ia64. It also cleans up unused variable localities in
acpi_parse_slit() on x86.
