Apologies for the trouble here. I had tested it on my system
successfully but I guess it ran into trouble later on.

I have an idea of what went wrong and will fix it as soon as I can.
Unfortunately, I'm in the middle of a move right now and don't actually
have test systems and "real" internet access so it may be a few days.

The workaround of disabling it will work for now, but I don't want to
leave the users affected by crappy stock DSDTs out in the cold. I
believe the cause may be invalid __init annotations, as Jan Beulich
pointed out to me privately.

Sorry for the inconvenience, but sometimes life on the bleeding edge can
be unpleasant. Thanks for the testing!

-Jeff
