Yes, it should be disabled if pnpacpi is enabled. The only concern is motherboard.c also request some ACPI resources, which might not declaim in ACPI motherboard device, but it's completely BIOS dependent. We might could try remove it at -mm tree to see if it breaks any system later. > > PS : I saw in acpi ols paper that you plan once all dupe acpi drivers > will be removed to register again the pnp device in acpi layer.
