If you do this "t" then there should be a lot of output on your console.
If you do this from an xterm then you can see the output after typing
"dmesg". The output should appear also in your system log.

Okay, this is a lot.

5 acpi_ev_asynch_enable_gpe() in three minutes since boot isn't much.
185 of "Adding acpi_ev_notify_dispatch" is a lot.

But to be clear, only 
  acpi_os_execute(1109) Adding acpi_ev_notify_dispatch" messages?
No
  "acpi_os_execute_deferred_notify() Start/End acpi_ev_notify_dispatch"? 

The syslog should have captured the log on disk.

I attached a modified acpi_dbg.patch. Please enable:
- CONFIG_ACPI_DEBUG=y

Looking at your 5.1 you have tracing enabled (hope it still is).

The attached patch will dump the date into the tracing buffer, so you
console should remain "clean". Once it records 300 of those "requests
for acpi_ev_notify_dispatch" it will stop recording.
After 4-5 minutes please do
	cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/trace > file.txt

compress it and send it.
