Yeah, I noticed this issue myself on a machine here while backporting
the patch to another (older) kernel.  I assumed (wrongly, apparently)
that there was just a bug in the older kernel's ACPI implementation that
had been fixed upstream already (I didn't see it on the same machine
with the current kernel)...  So, I didn't send the patch.

I'll queue it up with a -fixes batch later today.

Sorry about the trouble,
Ben.
