acpi_mem_hotplug.txt states that 0 bit in Memory device control fields
must be cleared before writing to register. Now "Memory device control
fields" is declared with "Preserve" update rule, so 0 bit isn't cleared
when other fields are written.

To solve this bug, This patch fixes UpdateRule to WriteAsZeros in "Memory
device control fields" register.
