It seems that these quirks are no longer necessary since commit 69b957c26b32 ("ACPI: EC: Fix possible issues related to EC initialization order"), which has fixed this in a generic manner. There are 3 commits adding DMI entries with this quirk (adding multiple DMI entries per commit). 2/3 commits are from before the generic fix. Which leaves commit 6306f0431914 ("ACPI: EC: Make more Asus laptops use ECDT _GPE"), which was committed way after the generic fix. But this was just due to slow upstreaming of it. This commit stems from Endless from 15 Aug 2017 (committed upstream 20 May 2021): https://github.com/endlessm/linux/pull/288 The current code should work fine without this: 1. The EC_FLAGS_IGNORE_DSDT_GPE flag is only checked in ec_parse_device(), like this: if (boot_ec && boot_ec_is_ecdt && EC_FLAGS_IGNORE_DSDT_GPE) { ec->gpe = boot_ec->gpe; } else { /* parse GPE */ } 2. ec_parse_device() is only called from acpi_ec_add() and acpi_ec_dsdt_probe() 3. acpi_ec_dsdt_probe() starts with: if (boot_ec) return; so it only calls ec_parse_device() when boot_ec == NULL, meaning that the quirk never triggers for this call. So only the call in acpi_ec_add() matters. 4. acpi_ec_add() does the following after the ec_parse_device() call: if (boot_ec && ec->command_addr == boot_ec->command_addr && ec->data_addr == boot_ec->data_addr && !EC_FLAGS_TRUST_DSDT_GPE) { /* * Trust PNP0C09 namespace location rather than * ECDT ID. But trust ECDT GPE rather than _GPE * because of ASUS quirks, so do not change * boot_ec->gpe to ec->gpe. */ boot_ec->handle = ec->handle; acpi_handle_debug(ec->handle, "duplicated.\n"); acpi_ec_free(ec); ec = boot_ec; } The quirk only matters if boot_ec != NULL and EC_FLAGS_TRUST_DSDT_GPE is never set at the same time as EC_FLAGS_IGNORE_DSDT_GPE. That means that if the addresses match we always enter this if block and then only the ec->handle part of the data stored in ec by ec_parse_device() is used and the rest is thrown away, after which ec is made to point to boot_ec, at which point ec->gpe == boot_ec->gpe, so the same result as with the quirk set, independent of the value of the quirk. Also note the comment in this block which indicates that the gpe result from ec_parse_device() is deliberately not taken to deal with buggy Asus laptops and all DMI quirks setting EC_FLAGS_IGNORE_DSDT_GPE are for Asus laptops. Based on the above I believe that unless on some quirked laptops the ECDT and DSDT EC addresses do not match we can drop the quirk. I've checked dmesg output to ensure the ECDT and DSDT EC addresses match for quirked models using https://linux-hardware.org hw-probe reports. I've been able to confirm that the addresses match for the following models this way: GL702VMK, X505BA, X505BP, X550VXK, X580VD. Whereas for the following models I could find any dmesg output: FX502VD, FX502VE, X542BA, X542BP. Note the models without dmesg all were submitted in patches with a batch of models and other models from the same batch checkout ok. This, combined with that all the code adding the quirks was written before the generic fix makes me believe that it is safe to remove this quirk now.
