Adding more people (and the acpi list) to this report.

I'm seeing *very* few changes to the core suspend/resume path in 3.7,
and while there are some acpia updates, they seem to be pretty mild
too.

I think the acpi_os_wait_semaphore thing is a red herring - that's
just stale on the stack.

Do you have the register state from the oops? Or at least the "Code:"
line? It would be nice to see exactly where the oops happens, and I
cannot line up your "acpi_ns_lookup + 0xa1/0x5b9" with any code due
to different compilers (and configurations etc).

I've opened https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=51071
and attached picture there which is all I have.

I'll try to decode exact code line.


In all cases - I've played even with 3.4 kernel - which also does not survive multiple resumes in docking station - though it just leaves black screen - so this oops is rather 'progress' and it also could be false path.

It's probably not a regression from 3.6 - since this problem was there for much longer - but now it has just become much more visible.

As I usually do not have reason to make multiple suspend/resumes in dock I've not noticed it until now when I've tried to capture this ACPI trace.
