This means that either handle is NULL, which I think we can exclude, because acpi_memory_enable_device() wouldn't be called at all if that were the case, or there's a more subtle error in acpi_bind_one(). One that comes to mind is that we may be calling acpi_bind_one() twice for the same memory region, in which it will trigger -EINVAL from the sanity check in there. Also you may try to increase ACPI_MAX_PHYSICAL_NODE (in acpi_bus.h) and see if that helps. Thanks, Rafael -- I speak only for myself. Rafael J.
