Have no idea for this _DSM error, need help from drm and acpi experts.
It definitely looks like an ACPI issue. That function is defined in `drivers/gpu/drm/i915/intel_acpi.c'. The whole file was added more than a year ago by commit 723bfd707a97 (see the relevant thread on intel-gfx@ [1]) to "add _DSM support". One of the first comment is about "Calpella", which is exactly the platform of my laptop (as shown by lshw)
Ignore that - it's entirely harmless.
