Hi,
I was able to duplicate this problem - it only occurs when the bay
driver is built-in, not when the bay driver is compiled as a module.
While I work on the fix for the problem, you can as a temporary workaround
just use ACPI_BAY=m.  By the way, I also found that the bay driver will
not build at all if ACPI_DOCK=n.  Oops.  I will fix that too.

thanks,
Kristen
