- * DESCRIPTION: Called from acpi_walk_namespace. Expects each object to be a
- *              control method under the _GPE portion of the namespace.
- *              Extract the name and GPE type from the object, saving this
- *              information for quick lookup during GPE dispatch
- *
- *              The name of each GPE control method is of the form:
- *              "_Lxx" or "_Exx"
- *              Where:
- *                  L      - means that the GPE is level triggered
- *                  E      - means that the GPE is edge triggered
- *                  xx     - is the GPE number [in HEX]

+ *
+ * RETURN:      Status. NOTE: We ignore errors so that the _PRW walk is

+ *
+ * DESCRIPTION: Called from acpi_walk_namespace. Expects each object to be a
+ *              Device. Run the _PRW method. If present, extract the GPE
+ *              number and mark the GPE as a CAN_WAKE GPE. Allows a
+ *              per-owner_id execution if execute_by_owner_id is TRUE in the
+ *              walk_info parameter block.
+ *
+ * If walk_info->execute_by_owner_id is TRUE, we only execute _PRWs with that
+ *    owner.
+ * If walk_info->gpe_device is NULL, we execute every _PRW found. Otherwise,
+ *    we only execute _PRWs that refer to the input gpe_device.
