Hi Alexey,

I'm a ACPI newbie, and just have a question about your comments for this commit

"   HP nx6125/nx6325/... machines have a _GPE handler with an infinite
   loop sending Notify() events to different ACPI subsystems.

   Notify handler in ACPI driver is a C-routine, which may call ACPI
   interpreter again to get access to some ACPI variables
   (acpi_evaluate_xxx).
   On these HP machines such an evaluation changes state of some variable
   and lets the loop above break.
"

I guess that this _GPE handler is provided by HP nx6125/nx6325/.. BIOS, right?

Thanks,
Forrest
