thanks.
it seems there is no resource in your __CRS. Like Shaohua said the acpi 
spec say that it must return valid template even if the device is 
disable [1].

Just for confirmation, could you try this patch. It should enable 
pnp_dbg message and print your _CRS when you activate the device.
If there is nothing between ******574******* and ******857*******, you 
bios is likely broken.


thanks

If a device is disabled, then _CRS returns a valid resource template for 
the device, but the actual
resource assignments in the return byte stream are ignored. If the 
device is disabled when _CRS is called, it
must remain disabled.
