Some MSI laptop BIOSes are broken - INT 15h code uses port 92h to enable A20 line but resume code assumes that KBC was used. The laptop will not resume from S3 otherwise but powers off after a while and then powers on again stuck with a blank screen.
Fix it by enabling A20 using KBC. Affected laptop list and DMI data are from bug reports at Ubuntu Launchpad. Tested with EX600 and PR200.
