[ 1.156236] SMP: stopping secondary CPUs
The driver is very old and resources are totally hardcoded, no bus model. It seems the simplest way to fix this issue is disabling it by parameter. If someone really needs the old driver, it should enable the parameter by cmdline.
I wonder if we are not better off simply removing the driver. I doubt there are any "Gateway AOL Connected Touchpad computers left, especially ones that run 5.x kernels.
Same here. Once a platform selects this driver, the platform will crash during boot. It seems we have no way to stop users from selecting it in Kconfig.
Thanks Barry
