I don't know if this is a question or a resend request.

I just chose that base on the fact that we are reading an int from
ACPI in read_method_int(adevice->handle, "_CFG", &cfg).  Either way
we're going to run into integer conversion issues if we get passed
a large or negative int.

I can resend if you want, I don't have strong feelings on this.
