Please provide a link to the original report.  I would also like to
know the exact MacBook model used and I would like to see full dmesg
output as well as an acpidump.

What you're saying here is that there's a fake APP000B device present
in DSDT and I have a hard time believng that.  We need to find out
what's really going on and how macOS handles this.

Thanks,

Lukas
