I've just loaded FreeBSD 14.0 (in anticipation of 14.1) onto a
little MeLE single board PC with a Celeron N4000 processor. It
runs, but throws many errors during boot and afterward of the form
ACPI Error: No handler for Region [ECF2] (0xfffff800017caa80)

and so on, ad infinitum. Apparently, either the BIOS is missing the
code to support some specific piece of hardware, or it doesn't NEED
any code to support it and FreeBSD's ACPI software is trying to
find some anyway. How can I eliminate the errors?
