This problem was introduced by the following patch: commit 1f3ee987b56d6354cdbbe8faa90079886a464b9c Author: Bob Moore <robert.moore@xxxxxxxxx> Date: Tue Jun 10 13:42:13 2008 +0800 ACPICA: Eliminate acpi_native_uint type No longer needed; replaced mostly with u32, but also acpi_size where a type that changes 32/64 bit on 32/64-bit platforms is required.
