    Well, that patch is likely going to get reverted because
    it's causing a crash on Rafael's test box.

    But before that happens, could you send me the disassembled
    dump of your ACPI objects? Iti's possible the code is wrong,
    but it's also possible that your BIOS is passing a broken
    _PSD.
