Yes, I think my complaints about the wasy the new ASL code goes about things
was probably unfounded. It's just the interface between hvmloader and the
DSDT that needs cleaning up, and moving the new ASL code patterns into
mk_dsdt.c. I hope Jinsong will re-spin the patches doing it that way, and
then I'll reconsider them.
