when acpi=off is provided in bootarg, kernel crash with [ 1.252739] BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference, address: 0000000000000018 [ 1.258308] Call Trace: [ 1.258490] ? acpi_walk_namespace+0x147/0x147 [ 1.258770] acpi_get_devices+0xe4/0x137 [ 1.258921] ? drm_core_init+0xc0/0xc0 [drm] [ 1.259108] detect_thinkpad_privacy_screen+0x5e/0xa8 [drm] [ 1.259337] drm_privacy_screen_lookup_init+0xe/0xe85 [drm] The reason is that acpi_walk_namespace expects acpi related stuff initialized but in fact it wouldn't when acpi is set to off. In this case we should honor acpi=off in detect_thinkpad_privacy_screen().

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.
