Subject: ACPI / PM: Do not execute _PS0 for devices without _PSC during initialization
From: "Rafael J. Wysocki" <rafael.j.wysocki@xxxxxxxxx>
commit 7cd8407d53ef5fb0280fcbe34f42311472f90feb upstream.
Commit b378549 (ACPI / PM: Do not power manage devices in unknown
initial states) added code to force devices without _PSC, but having
_PS0 defined in the ACPI namespace, into ACPI power state D0 by
executing _PS0 for them. That turned out to break Toshiba P870-303,
however, so revert that code.
