[PATCH v4 4/5] ACPI: in HW reduced mode, using FADT PM information is not allowed.

From: al.stone at linaro.org <hidden>
Date: 2013-12-17 00:16:40
Also in: linux-acpi
Subsystem: acpi, the rest · Maintainers: "Rafael J. Wysocki", Linus Torvalds

From: Al Stone <redacted>

Per the ACPI 5.0 specification, section 5.2.9, none of the power
management fields in the FADT are to be used.  Short-circuit using
any of those fields in acpi_processor_get_power_info_fadt().
