Doesn't acpi_evaluate_object() return 0 on success? I think:

if (ACPI_SUCESS(acpi_evaluate_object(device->handle, "_BIX", NULL,
&buffer))


Yes, Sorry for oops.

But maybe we should check for existence first and give an FW_BUG message
to indicate an invalid _BIX?

Yes, this is a good idea.

Another point, the acpi_evaluate_object should return different error code for these two cases(no _BIX and wrong size.). I wonder whether we can use the error code to determine it belong which case?
