+	commit 64b3db22c04586997ab4be46dd5a5b99f8a2d390 (2.6.39),
+"Remove use of unreliable FADT revision field" causes regression
+for old P4 systems because now cst_control and other fields are
+not reset to 0.
+
+	The effect is that acpi_processor_power_init will notice
+cst_control != 0 and a write to CST_CNT register is performed
+that should not happen. As result, the system oopses after the
+"No _CST, giving up" message, sometimes in acpi_ns_internalize_name,
+sometimes in acpi_ns_get_type, usually at random places. May be
+during migration to CPU 1 in acpi_processor_get_throttling.
+
+	Every one of these settings help to avoid this problem:
+ - acpi=off
+ - processor.nocst=1
+ - maxcpus=1
+
+	The fix is to update acpi_gbl_FADT.header.length after
+the original value is used to check for old revisions.
