IMHO that should be an arch and not a driver choice. If the hardware latches the register on writing the hi or lo bits first then it matters, otherwise it's arbitrary like it is in this case. It's hard to have an arch default because different devices care about different orderings, so it must be a driver choice afaics. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-acpi" in
