From: Huacai Chen <chenhuacai@xxxxxxxxxxx> Introduce acpi_gbl_use_global_lock, which allows to skip the Global Lock initialization. This is useful for systems without Global Lock (such as loong_arch), so as to avoid error messages during boot phase: ACPI Error: Could not enable global_lock event (20240827/evxfevnt-182) ACPI Error: No response from Global Lock hardware, disabling lock (20240827/evglock-59) Link: https://github.com/acpica/acpica/commit/463cb0fe Signed-off-by: Huacai Chen <chenhuacai@xxxxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Rafael J.
