re: comment #25

The wording in ACPI 3.0 is incorrect, and will be fixed in ACPI 4.0:
http://www.acpica.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=714

This has come up before, and until the ACPI bug report above,
the "documentation" has been this commit log:

http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commitdiff;h=730ff34de766a6fddee25ac1c32bc49c1a2fd758

If we implemented the patch in comment #25, we would be
swimming against the stream of "common industry practice".
The proof is systems like that in bug #8842, which would break.

Thus, the patch in comment #25 must not be applied.
