Hi Linus, please do a
bk pull http://linux-acpi.bkbits.net/linux-acpi-release-2.6.0
The world will not stop revolving if these wait till 2.6.1, but it will make 2.6.0 easier to support if they're included.
3 bug fixes -- all are in 2.4:
1390: adds cmdline to allow manual over-ride if out policy of forcing the ACPI SCI to level triggered is wrong.
If we don't apply, some folks with no ACPI events will need to patch.
1177: makes print_IO_APIC() output useful instead of garbage.
If we don't apply, then we need to send this patch to anybody who has an IO-APIC mode interrupt issue in ACPI mode.
1434: 1-line panic fix BIOS with correct ACPI table check-sums but garbled data can cause panic immediately after loading with no kernel output unless this is fixed.
thanks, -Len
ps. a plain patch is also available here: ftp://ftp.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/lenb/acpi/patches/release/2.6.0-test9/acpi-20031002-2.6.0-test9.diff.gz

<len.brown@intel.com> (03/11/18 1.1453) [ACPI] "acpi_pic_sci=edge" in case platform requires Edge Triggered SCI http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1390
<len.brown@intel.com> (03/11/18 1.1452) [ACPI] print_IO_APIC() only after it is programmed http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1177
<len.brown@intel.com> (03/11/07 1.1414.1.7) [ACPI] In ACPI mode, delay print_IO_APIC() to make its output valid. http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1177
<len.brown@intel.com> (03/11/07 1.1414.1.6) [ACPI] If ACPI is disabled by DMI BIOS date, then turn it off completely, including table parsing for HT. This avoids a crash due to ancient garbled tables. acpi=force is available to over-ride this default. http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1434
