/sys/sys/ata.h needs to be reverted.  You should look at the original
commit message to have a full understanding of what needs to be reverted.

That's because ACPI is a module and options defined in the kernel config
do not apply to the modules.  I think someone was working on fixing this
annoyance.

To rebuild it, cd /sys/modules/acpi and do:

    make ACPI_DEBUG=1
    cp acpi.ko /boot/kernel.test (or wherever your test kernel is)
    reboot

An easier way is to just include acpi in the kernel build.  Add this to
your kernel config and rebuild:

    device acpica
    options ACPI_DEBUG
