[PATCH v4 03/18] ACPI / table: Count matched and successfully parsed entries without specifying max entries

From: Tomasz Nowicki <tomasz.nowicki at linaro.org>

It is very useful to traverse all available table entries without max
number of expected entries type. Current acpi_parse_entries()
implementation gives that feature but it does not count those entries,
it returns 0 instead, so fix it to count matched and successfully
entries and return it.

NOTE: This change has no impact to x86 and ia64 archs since existing code
checks for error occurrence only (acpi_parse_entries(...,0) < 0).
