    The process for shipping a kernel workaround seems to be documented here, for those motivated to patch these ACPI bugs:

    Someone share this with Apple, they have the same bug.

      I do wonder ... I run ubuntu ocular t2 on a macpro '16... everytime I accidentally close the lid the laptop becomes unresponsive. I have to cycle power which usually then needs a manual fsck before it can boot normally.
