One of these patches where already too many people
stated their opinion (I'll try anyway). This often
happens when the problem description is unclear.

Frans, is this a cosmetic issue? that you just want
to get rid of unneeded code? or do you experience
any trouble because of the spurious code?

Experience slow system running Linux. Even reporting _STA disabled,
Linux remains requesting the _STA() of this device.

So it's a workaround for a problem that we don't
understand?

The issue I see here is that this solution adds a lot
of redundant code. Usually such code ends up being
refactored so it's very likely that such a workaround
for an undocumented problem won't survive long.

Please state the reason for this change in the commit
message (we should do that always, anyway) and provide
enough detail to reproduce the issue. Otherwise, future
work on the code can't be checked for regressions.
