Hi Borislav,

Some of these variables, for e.g. requested_address_range are not defined 
in this patch, but in the 'include/acpi/actbl2.h'.
My understanding is that those changes required to upstream first via
https://github.com/acpica/acpica ?

Fixed.

Will check and fix.

Are you sure?

...
 * Additional ACPI Tables (2)
 *
 * These tables are not consumed directly by the ACPICA subsystem, but are
 * included here to support device drivers and the AML disassembler.
 ...

In any case, if this goes through me, I will have to review it first as it
looks funky.

Your call guys.

That requested_address_range field has been in the
acpi_rasf_patrol_scrub_parameter structure since 2018

Got moved/copied into the acpi_ras2_patrol_scrub_parameter structure
in 2023.

$ git blame include/acpi/actbl2.h | grep requested_address_range
e62f8227851da (Erik Kaneda                2018-02-15 13:09:26 -0800 2722)       u64 requested_address_range[2];
2e94dc1189804 (Shiju Jose                 2023-09-27 17:41:52 +0100 2829)       u64 requested_address_range[2];
