DSDT override support

[Shawn Rogers]

I just received conformation that the dsdt override patch will no longer 
be used. What is the reasoning? I have two machines that will not 
function correctly without a custom DSDT. The Microsoft AML compiler 
(MFST) is increasingly being used more and more in place of the IASL 
compiler. The Microsoft compiler is not ACPI compliant, and causes ACPI 
breakage for Linux/Mac. This is not the time to take away the patch 
IMHO. My laptop overheats due to this: 
https://wiki.edubuntu.org/LaptopTestingTeam/HPdv5z Can this be fixed 
without a custom dsdt? It will not wake from sleep/hibernate because of 
an intentional error in the _WAK section of my dsdt. The fact that 
Microsoft has control over your BIOS should be reason enough to keep the 
patch. The ACPI bugs are only going to increase as time goes on. I can 
compile my own kernel and include the patch, but if everyone stops using 
the patch, it will eventually not be updated anymore.
