oh, shit, looks like a line was dropped. Here's what I sent upstream:
https://github.com/acpica/acpica/pull/650/files#diff-cccd96e900e01f7224c81508cbddfb1af6fcfbff959d6bfb55123e1b9cad4e38R1543
Note in the patch Rafael links to that line is missing and there's
instead an #ifdef that's empty. Was this line accidentally dropped?
