Can I get a full boot log?
It sounds like this would easily be triggered by one of my patches, I
am dubious about the particular patch you point out. As that only
adds a new function but does not call it.
There should be boot lines that say something like:
> [ 0.000000] ACPI: Local APIC address 0xfee00000
> [ 0.000000] ACPI: LAPIC (acpi_id[0x01] lapic_id[0x00] enabled)
> [ 0.000000] ACPI: LAPIC (acpi_id[0x02] lapic_id[0x01] enabled)
> [ 0.000000] ACPI: LAPIC (acpi_id[0x03] lapic_id[0x02] enabled)
> [ 0.000000] ACPI: LAPIC (acpi_id[0x04] lapic_id[0x03] enabled)
> [ 0.000000] ACPI: IOAPIC (id[0x04] address[0xfec00000] gsi_base[0])

I would like to look at those because they should tell the story of why
you can not find an IOAPIC for your GSIs.
It is possible that the explanation will simply be that the bug I fixed
made those GSIs usable (to linux) on your platform for the first time.
What hardware are you seeing this on?
