Nothing that seems *crucial* going forward for Linux. The fate of
"legacy machines" is really important to get right.
I have a small suggestion in mind that might be helpful in the future:
the "motherboard resources" discovered as PNP0C02 devices in their _CRS
settings in ACPI during ACPI PnP startup should be reserved (or
checked), and any drivers that still use port 80 implicitly should
reserve that port.
I agree. In this case the BIOS on these laptops is trying to tell us
"port 80 is used for our purposes, do not touch it". We should be listening.
