[PATCH v1] ACPI: EC: Evaluate orphan _REG under EC device

From: Rafael J. Wysocki
Date: Wed Jun 12 2024 - 10:16:05 EST


From: Rafael J. Wysocki <rafael.j.wysocki@xxxxxxxxx>

After starting to install the EC address space handler at the ACPI
namespace root, if there is an "orphan" _REG method in the EC device's
scope, it will not be evaluated any more. This breaks EC operation
regions on some systems, like Asus gu605.

To address this, use a wrapper around an existing ACPICA function to
look for an "orphan" _REG method in the EC device scope and evaluate
it if present.

Fixes: 60fa6ae6e6d0 ("ACPI: EC: Install address space handler at the namespace root")
Closes: https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=218945

Yes, this includes ACPICA changes that are obviously not upstream
and I am going to take care of pusing them to upstream, but for
now there is a regression to fix and it is relatively late in the
cycle.
