[PATCH] Revert "ACPI: execute Notify() handlers on new thread"
This effectively reverts commit b8d35192 by reverts acpi_os_queue_for_execution() to what it was before that, except it changes the name to acpi_os_execute() to match ACPICA 20060512. Signed-off-by: Len Brown <len.brown@intel.com> [ The thread execution doesn't actually solve the bug it set out to solve (see http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=5534 for more details) because the new events can get caught behind the AML semaphore or other serialization. And when that happens, the notify threads keep on piling up until the system dies. ] Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>
