I think I've got a handle on this. By making this "optimization" and not
running _STA if there is no _INI, we are violating the ACPI spec by continuing
to walk the device tree underneath parent devices that are not present (in the
case where the parent device has no _INI.) We need to always run _STA before
_INI for an additional reason: in order to determine whether or not to examine
the subtree underneath the device.
The fix to this would be to back off to the original code and add additional
comments to avoid this again in the future.
Does this sound correct?
