>
>    GPEs are disabled depending on their type --
>    WAKE, WAKE_RUN, and RUNTIME.  An error is returned
>    if we are asked to disable a GPE that has no type.
>
>    But at least one system exists that enables a GPE from AML
>    that is not the EC GPE, and has no _Lxx/_Exx AML handler,
>    and is thus never initialized.
>
>    In this case, when an external CRT is plugged in,
>    the GPE fires, we attempt to disable the GPE,
>    but instead just return an error.
>    So the GPE stays asserted and an ACPI interrupt storm follows.
>
>    The fix is to disable a firing GPE,
>    even if it comes from outer space.
