OK, I think this was a bogus ACPI_DEBUG leftover.

I've now compiled everything from scratch with and without the patch,
acpi.ko loads fine now, but battery info is broken (even without the
patch).

It worked fine with a kernel from Jan 2, and I don't know if something
has changed in the main tree.

Anyway, the patch seems to resolve the cbb issue, no
hw.pci.allow_unsupported_io_range="1" needed anymore!
