Hi Rafael,

This is indeed what I meant last week. However, I've looked into the issue and Dan's qemu
instance had AML that we no longer support. This is because the ACPICA commit makes changes to the execution of AML
during table load to match windows AML interpreter behavior so this commit also got rid of support for executing code
containing forward references (except for package elements).

I've suggested a fix for the firmware in a separate email. So I would say that this issue is resolved after if Dan can run
his test successfully with the adjusted firmware.

If Dan's test is successful, we don’t need to revert these changes
