Perhaps at some point we might switch to set of generic ICPU()-like macros.

It looks a bit hackish. If we need more, than one hid per CPU, we might just supply an array ICPU(model, hids) > + dev_info(&adev->dev, "Device [%s] is in > always present list setting status [%08x]\n", > + adev->pnp.bus_id, ACPI_STA_DEFAULT); > + return; > + } > + } > +#endif -- Andy Shevchenko <andriy.shevchenko@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Intel Finland Oy -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-acpi" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
