From e07fcfd89f9bbbc5f655b85b70e6f9b0bb626bac Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Bob Moore Date: Tue, 29 Oct 2013 09:29:45 +0800 Subject: ACPICA: Hardcode access width for the reset register. The ACPI spec requires the reset register width to be 8, so we now hardcode it and ignore the FADT value. This provides/maintains compatibility with other ACPI implementations that have allowed BIOS code with bad register width values to go unnoticed. Matthew Garett, Bob Moore, Lv Zheng.
