The output implies that acpi_perf driver hasn't been able to attach, presumably because it couldn't evaluate _PSS method. We usually discuss problems like this one on acpi@ and you can find some information in the archives of that mailing list. Diagnosing an issue like this requires examining DSDT and SSDT(s), if present, to see the logic there and what capabilities the firmware/BIOS expects from the OS. It's a tedious process and I am currently short on time. -- Andriy Gapon
