The ACPI spec states that the operating system should respond
to a fatal ACPI error by "performing a controlled OS shutdown in
a timely fashion". Comply with the ACPI specification by powering
off the system when ACPICA signals a fatal ACPI error. Users can
still disable this behavior by using the acpi.poweroff_on_fatal
kernel option to work around firmware bugs.
Any updates on this?
I was about to apply it, but then I thought that I was not sure about
the Kconfig option.

I don't see much value in it TBH. If you agree, I'll just apply the
patch without that part.

Thanks!
You can drop the Kconfig option if you want.
OK, applied as 7.1 material.

Please double check

Looks good to me, except that the include of kconfig.h should be dropped now.

Thanks,
