hm, regressions are bad and the fact that it _used_ to work meand that we
should be able to make it work again.

Could you please raise a bug reports against acpi at bugzilla.kernel.org?
It might help if that report includes the output of `dmesg -s 1000000' for
both working and non-working kernels.

Thanks.
