Hi, Rickard > From: Rickard Strandqvist [mailto:rickard_strandqvist@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx] > Sent: Friday, January 02, 2015 1:16 AM > > Remove the function acpi_ut_is_aml_table() that is not used anywhere. This function is used by the ACPICA debugger and disassembler. The ACPICA release process has just automatically released this function from the ACPICA code base to the Linux kernel. We shouldn't just remove it from the Linux kernel code base. If we do so, it's just turned into divergences that can hurt the release automation. You may use ACPI_FUTURE_USAGE around these functions instead. Same rule should apply to all of the other patches from you.
