From: Hugh Dickins <hugh.dickins@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> acpi_device->pnp.hardware_id and unique_id are now allocated pointers, replacing the previous arrays. acpi_device_install_notify_handler() oopsed on the NULL hid when probing the video device, and perhaps other uses are vulnerable too. So initialize those pointers to empty strings when there is no hid or uid. Also, free hardware_id and unique_id when when acpi_device is going to be freed.
