Resource type 0 is "reserved" per the ACPI spec, so this is likely a
BIOS defect.  However, we might be able to handle it better than we
currently do.

I would expect all versions of Linux would report this error -- can
you confirm that or identify a version that didn't complain?  Also,
can you collect an acpidump (see
http://www.lesswatts.org/projects/acpi/utilities.php)?

In acpi_ut_validate_resource(), we return AE_AML_INVALID_RESOURCE_TYPE
(0x3017 == 12311), which explains the messages you see.  The comments
in acpi_ut_walk_aml_resources() suggest that we can't continue because
the length may be bogus if the type is invalid.  But I suspect that if
we just treat it as a zero-length descriptor and ignore it, things
will probably work, and that's likely what Windows does.
