It is true that BM_RLD needs to be set to enable bus master activity to wake an older chipset (eg PIIX4) from C3. This is contrary to the erroneous wording the ACPI 2.0, 3.0 specifications that suggests that BM_RLD is an indicator rather than a control bit. ACPI 1.0's correct wording should be restored in ACPI 4.0: http://www.acpica.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=689 But the kernel should not have to clear BM_RLD when entering a non C3-type state just to set it again when entering a C3-type C-state. We should be able to set BM_RLD at boot time and leave it alone -- removing the overhead of accessing this IO register from the idle entry path. Signed-off-by: Len Brown <len.brown@intel.com>
