Subject: Dell XPS 13 9370: hpet_acpi_add: no address or irqs in _CRS

Dear Linux folks,


On the Dell XPS 13 9370 with Debian sid/unstable Linux 5.18.16 warns 
about missing values in _CRS:

     [    0.000000] DMI: Dell Inc. XPS 13 9370/0RMYH9, BIOS 1.21.0 
07/06/2022

     [    1.869812] initcall hpet_init+0x0/0x76 returned 0 after 876 usecs

All HPET logs:

     $ dmesg | grep -i HPET

I attached the full Linux logs (`dmesg`), and the output of `acpidump` 
to the bug #216402 in the Linux kernel bugtracker [1].

 From the disassembled DSDT:

         Device (HPET)
         {
             Name (_HID, EisaId ("PNP0103") /* HPET System Timer */)  // 
_HID: Hardware ID
             Name (_UID, Zero)  // _UID: Unique ID
             Name (BUF0, ResourceTemplate ()
             {
                 Memory32Fixed (ReadWrite,
                     0xFED00000,         // Address Base
                     0x00000400,         // Address Length
                     _Y34)
             })
             Method (_STA, 0, NotSerialized)  // _STA: Status
             {
                 If (HPTE)
                 {
                     Return (0x0F)
                 }

                 Return (Zero)
             }

             Method (_CRS, 0, Serialized)  // _CRS: Current Resource 
Settings
             {
                 If (HPTE)
                 {
                     CreateDWordField (BUF0, 
\_SB.PCI0.LPCB.HPET._Y34._BAS, HPT0)  // _BAS: Base Address
                     HPT0 = HPTB /* \HPTB */
                 }

                 Return (BUF0) /* \_SB_.PCI0.LPCB.HPET.BUF0 */
             }
         }

Besides adding `hpet=disable` to Linux’ CLI, is there a way to address 
the warning?


Kind regards,

Paul
