Especially for PATCH[10], resolving the issue I have. So I provided my tested-by tag for it. Besides, I checked the changes related to ACPI part and looks to me either after the mentioned nits fixed. I leave the changes related to device-tree to be reviewed by the experts :) Thanks, Gavin

Yes the changes for ACPI is very minimal in this series, except the bug fix you are interested, nothing changes in the system behaviour. The main aim is to get the same behaviour on a similar DT based system.
