From: Arjan van de Ven <[email protected]> commit ac36d37e943635fc072e9d4f47e40a48fbcdb3f0 upstream.
Although the Generic Event Device is a Hardware-reduced platfom device in principle, it should not be restricted to ACPI_REDUCED_HARDWARE_ONLY. Kernels supporting both fixed and hardware-reduced ACPI platforms should be able to probe the GED when dynamically detecting that a platform is hardware-reduced. For that, the driver must be unconditionally built in. Signed-off-by: Arjan van de Ven <[email protected]> Signed-off-by: Samuel Ortiz <[email protected]> Signed-off-by: Rafael J.
