Wysocki <rjw@xxxxxxx> Date: Sun Dec 26 12:47:06 2010 +0100 ACPI / ACPICA: Disable GPEs during initialization GPEs with corresponding _Lxx/_Exx control methods need to be disabled during initialization in case they have been enabled by the BIOS, so that they don't fire up until they are enabled by acpi_update_gpes().

Wysocki <rjw@xxxxxxx> Date: Fri Dec 17 22:34:01 2010 +0100 ACPI: Execute _PRW for devices reported as inactive or not present If a device is reported as inactive or not present by its _STA control method, acpi_bus_check_add() skips it without evaluating its _PRW method. This leads to a problem when the device's _PRW method points to a GPE, because in that case the GPE may be enabled by ACPICA during the subsequent acpi_update_gpes() call which, in turn, may cause a GPE storm to appear. To avoid this issue, make acpi_bus_check_add() evaluate _PRW for inactive or not present devices and register the wakeup GPE information returned by them, so that acpi_update_gpes() does not enable their GPEs unnecessarily.
