Good catch!

The question is how it passed in our internal tree without being
notified (it even included a lot of ACPI code updated)!?

My explanation since I have no access to archive of internal mailing
list is that I submitted 'cleaned up' version which brought that and
wasn't tested. 

Anyway I just wrote a test module and is about to submit it with your
fix in a series.

Thanks!
