It's in no rush, but something needs to be done about this regression: 
http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=14890 , which is either take
the attached patch or revert the offending commit (what you did earlier in
acpi/test and acpi/release before dropping 
d11e073ee3e3091d9190dace97ce480e960cca1b). I'd prefer the taking the patch.

BTW, I screwed up for this, since I didn't see read Thomas' patch which was
sent earlier and did the same thing (except better). The kfree in dell-wmi.c
should still be safe.

Happy Holidays,

Anisse

Subject: [PATCH] hp-wmi: remove double free

Commit 3e9b988e4edf065d39c1343937f717319b1c1065 had the same purpose as commit
44ef00e6482e755f36629773abc2aee83a6f53e3 .
This should solve this regression:
