ACPI / scan: Treat power resources in a special way Commit 805d410 (ACPI: Separate adding ACPI device objects from probing ACPI drivers) introduced an ACPI power resources management regression, because it didn't ensure that the power resources driver bind to the struct acpi_device objects corresponding to power resources as soon as they were created. As a result, ACPI power management routines may attempt to access power resource objects before they are ready to use. To fix this problem, tell the acpi_add_single_object() in acpi_bus_check_add() to probe the driver for objects of type ACPI_BUS_TYPE_POWER. This fix has been verified to work on HP nx6325 where the problem was first observed. Signed-off-by: Rafael J. Wysocki <rafael.j.wysocki@intel.com> Acked-by: Toshi Kani <toshi.kani@hp.com>
