If that's really a function signature, why are some of the slots empty? If 
you're supposed to read the CFGI first via SN00, that would not make much 
sense. However, it makes sense if the function is encoded by the slot and a 
hole (i.e. Zero) means that the function is not supported or disabled.

If you're right though, it means that "0x124" on all new-style models (those 
with SN07 method) must always operate the killswitch. I might be able to find 
that out from the decompiled DSDT. Right now I only checked the Z series DSDTs 
(Z11 and Z21) and of course they are very similar. But I would be very 
interested to see the code of  functions called for the other "slot 3" 
methods, like 0x0104 and 0x0113. If you had some DSDTs to share...
