Apparently so at the time it was added, but would it still break after
the kernel changes made since then?
Moreover, has it not become harmful now? IOW, wouldn't it work after
removing the "Linux workaround" from the AML?
The only way to verify that I can see would be to run the system with
custom ACPI tables without the "Linux workaround" in the AML in
question.
