Uh...  If I am reading acpi_wmi.c correctly, it installs its own 
version of EC handler and EC is directly read/written via 
ACPI_EC_READ() and ACPI_EC_WRITE() from there.  Apparently, it just 
bypasses EC serialization and "affects" EC.  Am I reading it wrong?

BTW, it is kinda messy way to handle EC. :-(
