My only concern is that we have to be careful enough to prevent acpiphp
from claiming bridges that it is not supposed to handle.

I _think_ that the patch below covers all cases in which that might happen,
but it will require some careful testing to verify that.

So please feel free to add

Acked-by: Rafael J. Wysocki <rjw@xxxxxxx>

to the patch, but please do test it carefully nevertheless.

Thanks,
Rafael
