Re: [PATCH 2/2] ACPI: add DMI info to enable OSI(Linux) on PRIMEQUEST

I'm not sure that sharing drivers/acpi/blacklist.c between different
architectures is wise idea. There are entries in there that make
blanket decisions for all machines made by an OEM.

It seems quite possible that an OEM that makes boxes using
different processor architectures might make different mistakes
in the respective BIOS teams.
