20fcf9b = addition of RTC_S4 (bit 7).
The patch i sent to add bit 15 does not touch that:
- /* WBINVD + PROC_C1 + SLP_BUTTON + RTC_S4 */
- fadt->flags = cpu_to_le32((1 << 0) | (1 << 2) | (1 << 5) | (1 << 7));
+ /* WBINVD + PROC_C1 + SLP_BUTTON + RTC_S4 + USE_PLATFORM_CLOCK */
+ fadt->flags = cpu_to_le32((1 << 0) | (1 << 2) | (1 << 5) | (1 << 7) |
+ (1 << 15));
