I'd like to report one more instance of this bug. BUT perhaps more importantly pass on a condition that seems to trigger these ACPI errors at boot time (which you may or may not realize) and which might affect your continued approach to fixing.
I use an old Dell t7400 and just recently decided to activate their TPM (trusted platform module) in my bios. I had never received any of these boot ACPI errors until I activated the TPM (which uses the broadcom LAN chip for crypto key generation). Immediately after activation, the ACPI errors unique to my system were reported at boot through dmesg. Upon deactivation AND DISABLING the TPM function (there are 2 distinct steps needed) the boot time ACPI errors cease being reported. =============== ACPI BIOS Error (bug): Could not resolve symbol [\_PR.CPU7._PCT.CFGD], AE_NOT_FOUND (20210730/psargs-330) ACPI Error: Aborting method \_PR.CPU6._PCT due to previous error (AE_NOT_FOUND) (20210730/psparse-529) ACPI BIOS Error (bug): Could not resolve symbol [\_PR.CPU6._PCT.CFGD], AE_NOT_FOUND (20210730/psargs-330) and repeated for each core to 0 ......
