2.6.27-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let us know. ------------------ From: Rafael J. Wysocki commit d0c71fe7ebc180f1b7bc7da1d39a07fc19eec768 upstream. On some machines, like for example MSI Wind U100, the BIOS doesn't enable ACPI before returning control to the OS, which sometimes causes resume to fail. This is against the ACPI specification, which clearly states that "When the platform is waking from an S1, S2 or S3 state, OSPM assumes the hardware is already in the ACPI mode and will not issue an ACPI_ENABLE", but it won't hurt to check the SCI_EN bit and enable ACPI during resume from S3 if this bit is not set. Fortunately, we already have acpi_enable() for that, so use it in the resume code path, before executing _BFS, in analogy with the resume-from-hibernation code path. NOTE: We aren't supposed to set SCI_EN directly, because it's owned by the hardware. Signed-off-by: Rafael J.
