ACPI: property: Allow _DSD buffer data only for byte accessors
In accordance with ACPI specificication and _DSD data buffer representation the data there is an array of bytes. Hence, accessing it with something longer will create a sparse data which is against of how device property APIs work in general and also not defined in the ACPI specification (see [1]). Fix the code to emit an error if non-byte accessor is used to retrieve _DSD buffer data.
