ACPICA: fix acpi-cpufreq boot crash due to _PSD return-by-reference
patch 152c300d007c70c4a1847dad39ecdaba22e7d457 in mainline. Changed resolution of named references in packages Fixed a problem with the Package operator where all named references were created as object references and left otherwise unresolved. According to the ACPI specification, a Package can only contain Data Objects or references to control methods. The implication is that named references to Data Objects (Integer, Buffer, String, Package, BufferField, Field) should be resolved immediately upon package creation. This is the approach taken with this change. References to all other named objects (Methods, Devices, Scopes, etc.) are all now properly created as reference objects. http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=5328 http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=9429 Signed-off-by: Bob Moore <robert.moore@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Len Brown <len.brown@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>
