HP Pavilion 15 (Skylake) with Maxwell 950M fails to load the whole BIOS.  T=
he
ACPI "fast" method is selected first, which partially loads the B=
IOS with a
score of 6, which prevents the ACPI "slow" method which actually =
works from
ever being attempted.

To work around this I changed the name of the ACPI methods to "ACPIF&q=
uot; and
"ACPIS" respectively, so that I could issue this parameter to tar=
get the slow
method directly:
nouveau.config=3DNvBios=3DACPIS
