For some reason your mailer wrapped long lines on this patch, so it
doesn't apply. I guess you'll have to fix that and resend so that Len
can pick your patch.

This last chunk applies with fuzz 2 here. If this is because I'm
missing other acpi patches, that's OK, but if not you should refresh
the patch so that Len has no problem pushing it in git.

Other than that, this patch now looks fine to me.
