[PATCH v3 0/7] ACPI / osi: Fix several issues in _OSI handling

From: Lv Zheng
Date: Tue May 03 2016 - 04:48:28 EST


This patchset cleans up _OSI handling code and fixes several issues in it.

In the v2 version, as one fix has been changed to be a stable material,
patches originally put before it need to be rebased. The necessary changes
that are required by this fix are still kept before the fix patch, and the
unnecessary changes that are not required by this fix are moved after the
fix patch. So that the back porting of the stable materials could be
easier. The coding style in the stable materials is kept wrong to be
consistent to the coding style used by the old code, so checkpatch.pl may
report warnings on the stable materials.
In the v3 version, SOB blocks are updated with the tester's information.
Some pr_xxx(PREFIX) related wrong stuffs are corrected. One bool cleanup
patch is split out.
