Subject: [patch 31/58] ACPI: Revert conflicting workaround for BIOS w/ mangled PRT entries
Date: Wed, 06 May 2009 14:45:59 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20090506214759.573551004@mini.kroah.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20090506215017.GA21981@kroah.com>

[-- Attachment #1: acpi-revert-conflicting-workaround-for-bios-w-mangled-prt-entries.patch --]
[-- Type: text/plain, Size: 2766 bytes --]


2.6.29-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let us know.

------------------

From: Zhang Rui <rui.zhang@intel.com>

upstream 82babbb3887e234c995626e4121d411ea9070ca5
backported to 2.6.29.2

2f894ef9c8b36a35d80709bedca276d2fc691941
in Linux-2.6.21 worked around BIOS with mangled _PRT entries:
http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=6859

d0e184abc5983281ef189db2c759d65d56eb1b80
worked around the same issue via ACPICA, and shipped in 2.6.27.

Unfortunately the two workarounds conflict:
http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12270

So revert the Linux specific one.
