As co-author of those patches, the last I heard we were in linux-next,
and could possibly be merged into 4.1; there may be some push back that
would cause it to be delayed to 4.2, but that's uncertain.

The patches themselves should have no effect on any other architecture
that uses ACPI; they haven't yet, but I'm just paranoid enough to think
it's not impossible :).
