3.6.11.7-rc1 stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Lv Zheng <lv.zheng@xxxxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit 7cec7048fe22e3e92389da2cd67098f6c4284e7f ] Previous implementation incorrectly used the ACPI 5.0 extended sleep registers if they were simply populated. This caused problems on some non-HW-reduced machines. As per the ACPI spec, they should only be used if the HW-reduced bit is set. Lv Zheng, ACPICA BZ 1020.
