dmesg contains:
ACPI: EC: GPE storm detected, throttle EC GPE
ACPI: EC: missing write data confirmation, don't expect it any longer.
ACPI keys quite work but are very laggy (in the order of seconds).
Conclusion: I never experienced acpi interrupts flood in any case, in
vanilla the interrupt count is much lower but then there are no
interrupts even when I press acpi keys.
dont_disable_ec_gpe_completely_at_storm.patch does not correctly fix
the problem for me. When 2c81ce4c9c3 is reverted,
call_psw_on_capable_devices.patch makes no difference as it still
works well.
Thanks.
