There are bug-fixes for AML interpreter upstreamed, fixing some serious
issues found in recent platforms. These fixes make Linux AML interpreter
more ACPI 2.0 ASL concept compliant. Further AML interpreter fixes should
be based on such improvements, thus they are good materials for stable.
This patch set can be safely applied to linux-3.8:
commit 19f949f52599ba7c3f67a5897ac6be14bfcb1200 upstream.
The patch set has passed build/boot tests on the following machines:
Dell Inspiron Mini 1010 (i386)
HP Compaq 8200 Elite SFF PC (x86-64)
Bob Moore (4):
ACPICA: Interpreter: Fix Store() when implicit conversion is not
possible.
ACPICA: DeRefOf operator: Update to fully resolve FieldUnit and
BufferField refs.
ACPICA: Return error if DerefOf resolves to a null package element.
ACPICA: Fix for a Store->ArgX when ArgX contains a reference to a
field.
