During boot my system reports:

[   20.519875] ACPI: System BIOS is requesting _OSI(Linux)
[   20.519982] ACPI: If "acpi_osi=Linux" works better,
[   20.519983] Please send dmidecode to linux-acpi@vger.kernel.org

Note that the extra double-quotes around Linux are not present there.

Is the correct format with, or without, the double-quotes?

Regards,
