On legacy platform, firmware provides OSHP method instead of _OSC method
to grant native hot-plug control to OS. For this reason, current code
evaluates OSHP method if _OSC evaluation failed with error code other
than AE_SUPPORT (ex. "AE_NOT_FOUND" would be returned on the legacy
platform that provides OSHP instead of _OSC).
So I think Hidetoshi meant that
>>> + status = acpi_pci_osc_control_query(handle,&flags);
>>> + if (ACPI_FAILURE(status)
>>> + || !(flags& OSC_SHPC_NATIVE_HP_CONTROL))
>>> + goto no_control;
should be
status = acpi_pci_osc_control_query(handle,&flags);
if (status == AE_SUPPORT)
goto no_control;
