Re: [Linaro-acpi] [PATCH] ACPI: ARM: link ARM and the ACPI reduced hardware profile

Al

I am not sure about this.

What if one day we have ARM vendors showing up with x86-like fake registers just to be fully fixed hw profile compliant and feeling they could be safer than with the resuced hw profile, for whichever reason?

I would suggest we have two flags, which would be both set in 99.9% of ARM platforms but maybe there could be a 0.1% where it is ARM and fixed profile one day?

Thanks Andrea

Modify the kernel configuration so that if ARM is selected, then ACPI_REDUCED_HARDWARE is also selected.
