ACPI: Ignore invalid _PSS entries, but use valid ones
The EliteBook 8560W has non-initialized entries in its _PSS ACPI table. Instead of bailing out when the first non-initialized entry is found, ignore it and use only the valid entries. Only bail out if there is no valid entry at all. [v3: Fixes suggested by Konrad] Signed-off-by: Marco Aurelio da Costa <costa@gamic.com> Signed-off-by: Len Brown <len.brown@intel.com>
