I can confirm the patch in comment #35 works great, in kernel 2.6.34, to fix
the ACPI bug for my Toshiba L505D-LS5005 laptop.

With vanilla 2.6.34, the bug is the same as in earlier kernel versions: it
fails to complete booting, getting stuck in an endless loop of ACPI messages
that scroll up the screen.  It appears to be stuck in an infinite loop. 
Booting up with "acpi=off" is a workaround that will give a successful boot,
but then, all ACPI functionality is lost.

With the patch in comment #35 installed, however, kernel 2.6.34 works, and all
ACPI functionality is just fine.

Any reason why that patch can't make it into the mainstream kernel?  It would
solve a lot of problems for people with Toshiba laptops.
