We can find the maintainer's reply that the patch set will be merged. So let me just do a top-based reply here. The examples I showed in the previous emails are just examples that could be used to demonstrate the difficulties on the future ACPICA development that brought by the hooks. Since all what we are talking about are the future, we can just live with the current approaches. We can find a way in the future when the conflicts do happen.
