[PATCH v1 4/4] ACPI: scan: Make acpi_processor_add() check the device enabled bit

Posted by Rafael J. Wysocki 1 year, 11 months ago

From: Rafael J. Wysocki <rafael.j.wysocki@intel.com>

Modify acpi_processor_add() return an error if _STA returns the enabled
bit clear for the given processor device, so as to avoid using processors
that don't decode their resources, as per the ACPI specification. [1]

This does the job for us so if you are happier with this approach
that works for me.
