From: Takayoshi Kochi [mailto:kochi-PTg2hmCz6mgYz5ZhgtY7qeqrae++aQT8@public.gmane.org] I found a bug in evgpeblk.c. If an ACPI hardware has non-zero based GPE block, sometimes it's ignored. This patch fixes the problem. Also, ACPI_MODULE_NAME should be evgpeblk, not evgpe :)
We found this problem yesterday and were debating whether or not to put out an interim patch or wait until the next regular release. It is a fairly significant bug. Since you've already posted a patch I think we will wait and just point to your patch as the correct fix for now.
