Report the problem to the ACPI folks and have them fix it. That's the only sane
thing to do. Either that, or complain to the laptop vendor so that they fix
their BIOS, if this is a BIOS issue. Have you tried upgrading your BIOS first?

Enabling the SMBus on that laptop will cause more ACPI problems, not less
(that's what this bug is all about.) We could enable the SMBus conditionally
when acpi=off, I guess, but it would take additional code, and I doubt this is
worth the effort, given that this laptop probably can't run well with ACPI
completely disabled anyway. Most post-2002 PCs can't run properly without ACPI
support.
