After reading the ACPI spec again,
"If _PSV is defined then either _PSL or _TZD must be defined. _PSL and
_TZD may both be defined".
"_TZD is optional outside of the _PSV requirement".
which means that we should not throw out an error without checking the
_TZD method.
I think the patch still doesn't make sense, please ignore this patch and
wait for the refreshed patch.. :)
thanks,
