I know they don't change the logic.  This was to address comment from 
Jason.  He wanted to express the exact condition which crb_go_idle(),
crb_cmd_ready(), and the check for "Bad ACPI memory layout" in
crb_map_io() should run, instead of the if not the condition, return.
Since you want it as is, I'll change it back. It's already excluding
CRB_FL_CRB_SMC_START in addition to CRB_FL_ACPI_START which is what's
intended.

Like I said the goal for this patch is to really further exclude
CRB_FL_CRB_SMC_START from the check for "Bad ACPI memory layout"
in crb_map_io() in the code below.

@@ -458,7 +455,7 @@ static int crb_map_io(struct acpi_device *device, 
struct crb_priv *priv,
   * the control area, as one nice sane region except for some older
   * stuff that puts the control area outside the ACPI IO region.
   */
  -if (!(priv->flags & CRB_FL_ACPI_START)) {
  +if ((priv->flags & (CRB_FL_ACPI_START | CRB_FL_CRB_SMC_START)) == 0) {
   		if (buf->control_address == io_res.start +
   		    sizeof(*priv->regs_h))
   			priv->regs_h = priv->iobase;
   		else
   		    dev_warn(dev, FW_BUG "Bad ACPI memory layout");
   }

I'll submit v2 with only this change.  Are you okay which this change?

Thanks
