Thanks,  I misdiagnosed the issue in previous attempt to fix this.
Problem is lack of stub for that function in !CONFIG_ACPI
(not as I thought a missing include - which was also the case).

As that will need an ACPI related header change to avoid ifdef nastiness
in the driver I'll drop the patch from my tree and we can get back
to this next cycle.

Thanks again,
