Here is the final patch version:

From: Bartlomiej Zolnierkiewicz <bzolnier@...il.com>
Subject: [PATCH] acpi: HP G7000 Notebook needs a SCI_EN resume quirk

This fixes regression (battery "vanishing" on resume) introduced by
commit d0c71fe7ebc180f1b7bc7da1d39a07fc19eec768 ("ACPI Suspend: Enable
ACPI during resume if SCI_EN is not set") and also the issue with
the "screaming" IRQ 9.

Fixes:
