|    ACPI: processor: driver doesn't need to evaluate _PDC
|
|    Now that the early _PDC evaluation path knows how to correctly
|    evaluate _PDC on only physically present processors, there's no
|    need for the processor driver to evaluate it later when it loads.
|
|    To cover the hotplug case, push _PDC evaluation down into the
|    hotplug paths.

only cpu with Processor Statement get processed with _PDC

If bios is using Device object instead of Processor statement.
SSDTs for Pstate/Cstate/Tstate can not be loaded dynamically.

Need to try to scan ACPI0007 in addition to Processor.

That commit is between 2.6.34-rc1 and 2.6.34-rc2, so stable tree for 2.6.34+
need this patch.
