Following the discussion in this thread, I think this is a simple enough
patch with big enough benefit given Ray has already tested the patch.
I wouldn't block this patch for 4.17 release, but we need to make sure
Jan (the ACPI maintainer) is happy with the VFCT table information in
commit message. Then feel free to add my:

Kind regards,
