Our Windows probe result shows that EC._REG is evaluated after evaluating all _INI/_STA control methods. With boot EC always switched in acpi_ec_dsdt_probe(), we can see that as long as there is no EC opregion accesses in the MLC (module level code, AML code out of any control methods) and in _INI/_STA, there is no need to make sure that ECDT must be correct. Bugs of 9399/12461 were reported against an order issue that BAT0/1._STA evaluations contain EC accesses while the ECDT setting is wrong. >From the acpidump output posted on bug 9399, we can see that it is actually a different issue. In this table, if EC._REG is not executed, EC accesses will be done in a platform specific manner. As we've already ensured not to execute EC._REG during the eary stage, we can remove the quirks for bug 9399. >From the acpidump output posted on bug 12461, we can see that it still needs the quirk. In this table, EC._REG flags a named object whose default value is One, thus BAT1._STA surely should invoke EC accesses whatever we invoke EC._REG or not. We have to keep the quirk for it before we can root cause the issue.
