dmesg

New HP Envy notebook (core i7) with latest production F.06 BIOS.

Encountering an error while initializing the ambient light sensor on the EC.
During initialization, that object references a non-existent method. This
method is actually defined in a dynamic table loaded later.

Triaged down to the point where we know that \_PR_.CPU0._PDC is the method that
contains the Load statement that then defines the missing method.

http://pastebin.com/f3b00122a

Lines 25--28 indicate the error.

On lines 43,44, and 53,54, we see the dynamic tables get loaded. Those come
from a Load in the _PDC method.

The dynamic table named ApIst (line 53) contains the definition of
\_PR_.CPU0._PPC.

This bug is very similar to http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=14710
but the thermal zone and fans actually work on this machine.
