No.

It's now reverted in my tree.

We're not doing *another* release with this known-broken garbage. It's
been pending for much too long already.

Known-broken commits either

 (a) get a timely fix that doesn't have other questions

or

 (b) get reverted

Not this kind of "this is broken, has been known to be broken for a
long time, people have bisected it, and we're just sitting here
wondering what to do".

No, we're not waiting for "it's broken in the ACPICA tree" and using
that as an excuse to have a broken kernel.

If the ACPICA tree can't get their act together in two months, that's
their problem. It does not mean that users should need to suffer known
issues.
