[PATCH 2/2] ACPI: EC: Fix a possible issue related to ECDT initialization order

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



EC command/data register addresses are sufficient to determine if two
EC devices are equivelent. For EC ID and GPE settings:
1. The real namespace PNP0C09 device location should be more trustworthy
   than the ECDT ID.
2. According to the ASUS quirks, the ECDT GPE is more trustworthy than the
   namespace PNP0C09 device's _GPE setting.
