Add down_timeout and change ACPI to use it

ACPI currently emulates a timeout for semaphores with calls to
down_trylock and sleep.  This produces horrible behaviour in terms of
fairness and excessive wakeups.  Now that we have a unified semaphore
implementation, adding a real down_trylock is almost trivial.
