: I'm trying to figure out what's going on.  The probe routine should not

: acpi_perf_identify, probe, attach and let me know the full dmesg up to 
: the panic?

I'll give it a try.  I'll reiterate that probe routines should do
nothing more than 'I'm here' and all other processing should be done
in attach.  It looks like that might be a little hard in this case,
but I've not looked into it in detail.
