Hi everyone,

some time ago several people (including me) reported ACPI related problems=
 on various Dell laptops resulting in error messages of the form

        ACPI-0293: *** Warning: Buffer created with zero length in AML

During the 5.1 release process these problems have been temporarily fixed.=
 At least I have a 5.1-BETA kernel built on June 1st which does not exhibi=
t these problems.

Today I tried a 5.1-CURRENT kernel and found that these problems have reap=
peared. This made me wonder wether this is an intended behaviour or a regr=
ession.

Best regards

        -Thorsten
