| |
2.6.28-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let us know.
------------------
From: Rafael J. Wysocki <rjw@sisk.pl>
commit 11e93130c7ce5228d484fd5e86f3984835d4256b upstream.
According to the ACPI specification the SCI_EN flag is controlled by the hardware, which sets this flag to inform the kernel that ACPI is enabled. For this reason, we shouldn't try to modify SCI_EN directly. Also, we don't need to do it in irqrouter_resume(), since lower-level resume code takes care of enabling ACPI in case it hasn't been enabled by the BIOS before passing control to the kernel (which by the way is against the ACPI specification).
