mainlining shenanigans
e7c2c3c909
As the documentatuon above its declaration indicates, acpi_get_object_info()
is intended for early probe usage and as such should not call any methods
which may rely on op_regions, before this commit it was also calling _STA,
which on some systems does rely on op_regions.
Calling _STA before things are ready leads to errors such as these
(under Linux, on some hardware):
[ 0.123579] ACPI Error: No handler for Region [ECRM] (00000000ba9edc4c)
[generic_serial_bus] (20170831/evregion-166)
[ 0.123601] ACPI Error: Region generic_serial_bus (ID=9) has no handler
(20170831/exfldio-299)
[ 0.123618] ACPI Error: Method parse/execution failed
\_SB.I2C1.BAT1._STA, AE_NOT_EXIST (20170831/psparse-550)
End 2015 support for the _SUB method was removed for exactly the same
reason. Removing current_status from struct acpi_device_info only has a limited
impact. Within ACPICA it is only used by 2 debug messages, both
of which are modified to no longer print it with this commit.
Outside of ACPICA, there was one user in Linux, which has been patched to
no longer use current_status in Torvald's current master.
I've not checked if free_BSD or others are using the current_status field.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
