commit 0e6b6dedf16800df0ff73ffe2bb5066514db29c2 upstream.
After starting to install the EC address space handler at the ACPI
namespace root, if there is an "orphan" _REG method in the EC device's
scope, it will not be evaluated any more. This breaks EC operation
regions on some systems, like Asus gu605.
To address this, use a wrapper around an existing ACPICA function to
look for an "orphan" _REG method in the EC device scope and evaluate
it if present.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
