Yes, you are right. But as I told: It was the least invasive method for me.
Applying it as a config option, would include adding a MODULE_PARM section, which doesn't exist yet (not for me, I have ACPI compiled into the kernel, but to keep it consistent even if compiled as module). I'm not *that* proof with linux kernel source to guarantee side-effect-freeness and so on.
This part I'd like to leave for developers knowing better, what they're doing :)
However, if someone of the ACPI developers or someone of the patch-acceptors (:)) tells me 'do it, we'll patch it in', I'll do it. If it has no chance to get in, I wont do it - for me myself, my patch is quite enough :)
