I haven't filed one. Should I? Please tell me where to report and what
information you would need (to bugzilla.kernel.org with things mentioned
in Documentation/admin-guide/reporting-issues.rst?)

As mentioned in my other email this is a known issue, and your effort
to fix this is appreciated very much, but I don't believe your solution
to be the right one.

See: https://lore.kernel.org/linux-acpi/[email protected]/
for more details and possible solutions. Please try implementing one of
those solutions for your Chromebook. I unfortunately do not have hw to
test this myself.

Regards,

Hans
