The brightness control hotkey don't work with Vista compatibility
because the MSI GX723 includes an infinite while loop in DSDT when
brightness control hotkey pressed.

The MSI GX723 uses Nvidia video.  Perhaps the loop is specific
to the Nvidia Vista driver...

This patch should be reverted once nouveau grows support
to call the ACPI NVIF method.

|    ACPI: processor: driver doesn't need to evaluate _PDC
|
|    Now that the early _PDC evaluation path knows how to correctly
|    evaluate _PDC on only physically present processors, there's no
|    need for the processor driver to evaluate it later when it loads.
|
|    To cover the hotplug case, push _PDC evaluation down into the
|    hotplug paths.

only cpu with Processor Statement get processed with _PDC

If bios is using Device object instead of Processor statement.
SSDTs for Pstate/Cstate/Tstate can not be loaded dynamically.

Need to try to scan ACPI0007 in addition to Processor.

That commit is between 2.6.34-rc1 and 2.6.34-rc2, so stable tree for 2.6.34+
need this patch.

Our list of Toshiba Satellite models that require this workaround
is growing -- so invoke the workaround for the entire product line.

The src_base and dst_base fields in apei_exec_context are physical
address, so they should be ioremaped before being used in ERST
MOVE_DATA instruction.

acpi_pad.c:432: warning: ‘num_cpus’ may be used uninitialized in this function

gcc 4.4.4 was unable to notice that num_cpus is always set.
Re-arrange the code to un-confuse gcc, and also make
it easier for humans to read....
