I've just read through the respective ACPI spec section again, and
I couldn't find a reference to SCI from there ("Hardware-Reduced
ACPI"). Can you clarify this connection please. Also there are other
consequences of setting that flag, so in order to understand the
reasons behind this change in case of future problems I think the
description here will need to be significantly extended, despite the
change being so small.

I think this would better be made a suitable #define in acpi2_0.h.
