I don't think these are worse :) As I said before, this issue is highly bound
with EC driver, with these lots of ACPI debug info, the timing is changed,
which makes your EC driver work "normally" in interrupt mode, not polling mode
(you can't find "GPE storm" info any more in these dmesgs).

Could you try the following patch _only_ without any previou patches or those
"debug string" in cmdline?
